Dear Richard,
I'm not sure I follow your argument and I fail to see how that is a test of
Marco's knowledge. You make a number of points but leave out a number of
important others. I'm lost into what is it that you are trying to get at. To
me, Photoshop does not see "ink" in ICC Profiles, or gamuts, if that's what
you're refering to, it sees colorimetry. So, when you write ink set A, ink
set B in the context of Photoshop I take it that you mean profile A, profile
B, etc. So, how does Photoshop know which ink you are viewing? I must be
dense and fail to see the real question in the question formulated that way,
it's so obvious. Could you not reformulate the terms of your question in
more detail? For the benefits of everyone who is willing to learn about
color management here, including yours truly.
