Which brings me to a little question I've had for some time:
Is there no RIP that allows both setting ink limits/linearization in 4, 6, 7
(or more) ink channels AND lets you profile it as an RGB device? It seems to
me that these two things would not be mutually exclusive. Or maybe they are.
Damn, the ignorance thing again.
