Or, better yet, I would like to know how to create one myself with a software that is free as in beer, so that I can have several with different maximum total ink. Ideally, that software would run on Mac OS X. I have never created a profile and I am not one bit familiar in what it involves and what I should be sure to doublecheck.
You can use Argyll to do all of this. Steps: 1. Use targen to generate a test chart 2. Use fakeread to fake results from your chart and for example the ISO Coated v2 profile 3. Use colprof to build the ICC profile using -kz to ensure that no K is generated until the CMY hit their maximum You can also use xicclu on any profile to visualise and test different black generation settings before building your final profile.
