You can fix most of this now, but not with ProfileMaker.
You need dirtier colors to get the results you desire. Jim Rich has a
page in his book with some good starting points. "Photoshop 6 Color
Companion" page 176. Also look at page 171 for color benchmarks.
Your editor needs to be able to directly control the ink mix using
selective color so you only tweak the saturated colors. You can do
this with the color correction pro plug-in from The Imaging Factory in
conjunction with the Kodak ColorFlow editor in OS9. I think you do it
in Monaco but I am not sure how much control you have over color width
selection.
