encoding an A2B transform in such cases.
Agreed. One of the issues though is that alternatives are really not
established technology, and are therefore hard to standardise, and
hard to make universal. Any alternative direction will involve
a more model driven approach, and such models are much more
tricky to create and know when to apply. A model that matches
the behaviour of a particular printer/ink/paper combination
may work well, but the same model applied in another circumstance
may not work so well. As I'm sure you're aware (Hi Max :-), the
MPE extension may make a more model based approach feasible within
the framework of ICC profiles, but I would observer that it doesn't
actually propagate a solution in itself, since a model that works well
still has to be created within that framework, and tools that
use it made widely available. At least for some time initially,
such workable models are likely to be regarded as technology
that gives competitive advantage. So even if the MPE extension
was widely implemented, it wouldn't in itself solve the
problem of multichannel profiles with accurate A2B translations
being widely available.
