Steve,
OS X has it's share of color management issues but in Vista color
management is basically broken.
I hesitate to question your experience, but I actually use Vista64 daily
with LR 1.4 and 2 and CS2 and can't see where color management is "broken"?
........
Vista SP1 has been released and I believe it has addressed some of the
problems. I have yet to hear if it has solved all of them. And the
behavior where it clobbers calibration tables in video cards means that
you cannot rely on your monitor under Vista. As far as I'm concerned, that
is a show-stopper.
My Eizo monitors don't use video card luts (to my knowledge) as they use
hardware internal calibration, so they work fine. LR and CS2 do their own
thing or use ICM3 in Vista64, not WCS, so that seems OK. Where's the
problem? If you do use video card luts and they do get wiped as you say when
you get a UAC prompt, then you can just turn off UAC prompts! They give you
a bit more security in business situations, but if you are the admin/user
they are not really necessary.
My only CM-related gripe is that Epson's Colorbase does not work with the
R2400 on V64 (only V32) and Epson seem disinclined to update it. So I can't
synchronise my two printers to work with Epson's USA profiles. So I have to
make my own.
So what problems am I not seeing?
Bob Frost.
