Nick Walker had written about some profile errors he had detected with
Apple's ColorSync Profile First Aid. Although it is not unusual to find
profiles with errors, Nick was surprised (as was I) that the Adobe RGB
(1998) profile was one with a reported error:
>
Adobe RGB (1998)
>
Tag 'cprt:Tag type is not correct.
He was kind enough to send me a copy of this profile (since my copy of Adobe
RGB 1998 seemed ok) and I found something disturbing. The profile he sent
was not the "official" version that Adobe provides. Instead, it was
identical except that Adobe's copyright tag "Copyright 2000 Adobe Systems
Incorporated" had been replaced with "Copyright 2000 Phase One A/S".
Incidentally, this replacement was done incorrectly, causing the reported
error.
The deliberate replacement of a copyright notice is certainly unethical and
probably also illegal.
