Gariba,


I have looked at two of these profiles and one reads a total ink limit of
343% and the other TIL is 338%. And that is without any fiddling around.

They seem to work and if wanted to I can use a tool like Curves or Selective
color to adjust/tweak the neutral shadow point. This would let me get the
image I am working on to end up with a TIL of 350% with out much work. I
would favor the Selective Color tool for this tweak.

As for achieving only 320%. You might want to re-check your Color Settings.

TIA

Jim Rich
