Ernst,
I have used other analogies before but if you need to make a cube first to
make a ball and the shape you started from is an egg ............
I like that one!
Having read various tomes written by authors who inhabit this list, I
thought profile editing was essential. My take on what I had read was that
since it is currently impossible to make one profile that perfectly covers
the entire gamut, we should edit a profile to make it specific for various
color ranges that one might be particularly interested in. For instance with
an image where the greens must be spot on, we edit our profile to give
perfect greens; if we want a 'blues' profile, we edit to give perfect blues,
etc, etc. So what one needed was a collection of edited profiles for
specific purposes. But I may have misinterpreted their advice.
Some years ago I suggested that what we needed was a profiling program that
did the usual - print target, read target, make profile, but then went one
(or many) steps further. Print the target again, using the new profile, read
it and let the program see where it went wrong first time, and then correct
itself. You could do several iterations of print new target with latest
profile, and correct it, each time getting closer to perfection.
I was told at the time that this was not possible, or if it was, it would be
far too expensive, but I still don't see why.
