The Adobe profiles where built by Thomas Knoll (we know that name) using his
custom built profiling application (Thomas wasn't happy with the existing
solutions).
The question is, if Thomas were given the data sets necessary to build a new
profile, would it be better and, more importantly, would that end up in the
next release of Photoshop?
I'd like to think that yes, Adobe and Thomas's hand built profiler would be
used to update these profiles. I've made my requests for this known inside
of Adobe, but the more who can ask for this, the better.
Whether or not his profiles are 'better' isn't as important as having all
users of CS4 have access to installed profiles that describe this new
specified print behavior.
And it may be too much to ask of Adobe but can we finally lose the old,
buggy Classic CMYK engine and have it replaced with at least the ability to
work with device links natively inside of Photoshop?
