One question please:
I don't understand that postscript or PDF should be the color - problem.
postscript 3 and PDF/X3 are able to transport all kinds of color. So
there should be no difference - TIFF or postscript.
The question you have to answer is the following:
Do I only print pictures?
If the answer is YES, you don't need a postscript RIP.
Do I print pictures, high quality text and graphics?
If the answer is YES, you need a postscript or PDF/X3 workflow.
Proofing or fine art is only a question of the ICC profile intent not
of the workflow.
greetings form munich,
Clemens Beisch
p.s. sorry for my english :-)

I'd go further.
For those many photographers for whom the loose image IS the page, a
PDF/Postscript workflow is very counterproductive. It's slower, more
complicated, and it introduces many uncertainties in the handling of
resolution, color and tone. If you need Postscript, you need
Postscript. If you simply want to render photographic imagery as well
as the device will permit, Postscript is a hindrance, not a help.

Yup, thats the viewpoint that prepress oriented RIP people always
express...
on the other hand fine art users are voting with their wallets for
RIPs that
don't assume they are unfortunate folk not sophistocated in the
virtues of a
good prepress RIP. I'm not saying that there can't be a bridge from
one RIP to
the other; only that the fine art RIP's price, features, and
especially ease
of
use need to be viewed specificly from the fine art angle, not as a
poor
cousin approach from the prepress market.
