Title: Re: Where to get a reasonably reliable Out-of-Gamut warning?
ColorPicker that comes in the ProfileMaker 5 will probably help you. You can load your profile and enter Lab values to get the equivilant CMYK (or RGB) values that will render this color, as well as the delta E values. I think it'll will even work in Demo mode for this. I'm sure Colorthink does something similar as well.

I responded too fast ;(
I think I wanted to read in “ProfileEditor” so much that I failed to read that you actually wrote “ColorPicker”. Yes, I’ve been using ColorPicker for ever to figure out matched device color for Pantone colors and just plain Lab values — I love it. The same functionality exists in PO5 but I never associated it with ColorPicker, but I see now they both serve the same function.
Of course, no Out-of-Gamut warning in ColorPicker. That interface is not meant for that.
I’d wish there could be a way, in ColorPicker as well as in PO5, to use an arbitrary list of Lab values as input instead of entering Lab values manually. It would be like a batch Lab conversion mode where the output would be sent to a text file. The next thing is to bring up that text file in Excel for further processing. Probably not too difficult to do, from a programming point of view?
