Hi to the list,
I was wondering if I could seek some advice on Best Colorproof 4.6 on
an Epson 9600.
I am new to this product and would like to RIP colour managed Tiffs
from Photoshop and am unsure of a suitable work flow. From my reading
of the Best manual it seems to me that Colorproof is designed as a
simulation RIP (primarily for press proofs). I would like to use it not
to simulate but to print full gamut linearized RGB colour.
I am considereing the following process.
1. create a new queue and dataset for the desired media, resolution.
2. perform a base Linearization for the media.
3. Deactivate built in col man. and output test chart
4. create custom profile
5. Softproof and convert to profile in Photoshop using BPC
6. Output file using the above created dataset, with col man. off.
Does this make sense? In this case all the work is done in Photoshop
but the base lin. and ink limits for the custom profile is used.
Or
Is it better to let the RIP do the profile conversions?
If so, what happens when I send the RIP an Adobe RGB file? Does it just
convert to the paper profile set in the Advanced color man. settings?
With what intent?
I can see where to load a custom profile and linearization in the
advanced color settings and also where to set the profiles for the
simulation (Reference profiles). If you don't want a simulation, do
you simply leave all the reference profiles blank, or do you set the
RGB reference profile the same as the paper profile?
Sorry if these are obvious questions but, as I say, I have only just
sighted this system and the owner knows even less than I do.
Any help would be great.
Regards,
Simon
