No, Martin is not picking the wrong rendering intent.
One has to wonder at times <g> Martin’s statement that the fault is PMP profiles and they all exhibit this is nonsense however. As I stated, I’ve built hundreds of profiles with that product, for a lot of customers using all kinds of printers, operating systems, drivers etc. His simplistic and incorrect statement implies pretty strongly this is something that is anything but a rare condition.
Oh well. For the record, every person I know making prints on a Mac with the same setup and Gretag profiles has had the same issue.
And for the record, every customer I built profiles for didn’t. I’m not suggesting there isn’t some combo of bug that causes this. I’m suggesting that it is/was rare and to suggest GretagMacbeth/X-rite produced a product that caused this in mass, and just ignored it, that it was solely their doing doesn’t wash. There have been so many historical issues printing on the Mac over the last 6-8 years it is hard to keep track of them. Our Windows friends don’t seem to suffer pointing to some responsibility with Apple. Andrew Rodney http://www.digitaldog.net/
