I have recently created a new press profile using ProfileMaker
5.08. I am getting very good results as far as the proofer matching
the press sheets used to build the profile. My problem is with the
RGB to CMYK conversions. Converting in Photoshop from Adobe RGB
1998 to my profile, I get poor results in the out of gamut blues and
violets. But if I first convert from Adobe RGB 1998 to Gracol 2006
Coated v2, and then to my profile, the results are pretty good.

I am a little lost as to how to correct this. Are there certain
settings in ProfileMaker, such as gamut mapping or optical
brightner, that would improve my profile?
What you're seeing is the difference between ProfileMaker and your
gamut mapping choice and Monaco Profiler (the GRACoL profile was built
with Profiler).
Build profiles using all three gamut mappings in ProfileMaker and see
what works best for you ("Colorful" is the gamut mapping most people
use).
