A topic of which we both agree 100%. Glad I still have that old G5 Mac around to run ProfileMaker Pro (specifically MeasureTool). Oh and ColorPort 1.5 which runs on that OS is so much better than version 2.0 which can't. Talk about steps backwards.
I've got an old Windoze box that I keep just for Profiemaker now use -- never used the Mac version until i1 Profiler was launched. You can throw anything at it -- data from ECI profiles, data from the Spectroproofers, scanner targets made from custom ColorPort charts -- and Profilemaker will import it without complaint and generate a reasonably good profile from it. i1 Profiler can't do any of that :-(
At least i1P builds better profiles than PMP. But that's been the story since the day it shipped and while still true, X-rite can't seem to keep the product moving foward in a timely fashion.
We're getting great results here too -- but building the profiles is a depressing chore… and it really needn't be. -- Martin Orpen Idea Digital Imaging Ltd
