While creating custom or synthetic RGB profiles is pretty straightforward, does anyone here know of any tools to create synthetic *CMYK* profiles?
I’m looking for something that will allow specifying of CMYK primaries and secondaries and a customizable TRC and then build an ICC profile.
The intent here is to build something like a “reference” or simulation profile for digital press and/or inkjet devices. I’ve gone through all the ISO 15339 CRPC profiles but none of them have the kind of gamut boundaries that I’m looking for..
Only tool that I can think of at the moment is the rather antiquated Custom CMYK tool in that’s been in Photoshop for a very long time…I’m not confident it will give me what I need.
try creating a very limited CMYK “measurement” file with just the primaries, secondaries & tertiaries (and paper white) profiling software may accept it, but it might barf… regards, Steve
