I am for the first time building CMYK profiles through MonacoProof for use
with a trial copy of StudioPrint 10.
One enters the mysterious world of ink limiting and black generation:-)
Arrgh, scary!
Generally for photographic use with an Epson 7600, should black generation
be set..where? I always assumed low, to avoid speckles in lighter areas.
Options in Proof are none, light, medium and heavy.
A second and possibly more subjective question is whether the larger CMYK
patch sizes and more complex black generation option in MonacoProfiler are a
worthwhile (i.e. noticeable to the reasonably critical observer) improvement
over Proof. No particular problem with the first CMYK profile I have built,
but there a few hints of slight posterisation if you are fanatically
critical.
By the way, I'm using a Spectrocam with Proof, so I am pleased to hear on
this list that non-X-Rite machines will still be supported following the
merger.
Quentin
