After reading all the fantastic responses (thanks everyone) I think
rendering and ink constraints have a place in gamut warning, but I'm
not sure this is the best solution for every scenario. Back to my
original post, I am attempting to see if a particular Lab value (from
a Pantone color) is within the maximum gamut of the device. If the
gamut changes based on rendering, I don't think this is giving me the
information I need. For example, for the purpose of comparing if a
particular list of colors is within gamut on two or more devices,
would it not be logical to have the rendering and ink constraints
omitted? After all, this would be partially reliant on the software
that generated the profile and the taste of the person who created it,
rather than an unequivocal volume (if there is such a thing). I'm am
now of the belief that Photoshop's gamut warning is perfectly
applicable for images bound for conversion, but there could be other
instances where other manners of determining gamut may be more
accurate, if even negligibly so. Or do I have more reading to do? :)
