Kodak Custom Color Tools
Kodak use to make a product Called Custom Color Tools. Does anyone know if they still make it and does it work with OS 10.8.2? And if not, does anyone know of a program that can be used to tune ICC profiles. I have ProfileMaker and Monaco but they're not working to well with new Mac OS. I've checkout i1Publish on demo mode and didn't see any tools for editing profiles like in ProfileMaker or Monaco. Thanks for the help. Jim
EFI's Color Profiler Suite 4 will work with 10.8.2. Doyle On Feb 7, 2013, at 3:51 PM, Jim Mitchell <jim_mitchell@richards.com> wrote:

The editor that worked within Photoshop? No and No unfortunately. It was a super awesome profile editor. A few months ago I needed to edit a profile doing a very tiny tweak (to remove a scum dot in one channel). This was the only tool I found/had that did the job. But I had to run it on an old G5 Mac under 10.5 if memory serves me. i1P has no profile editing tools like this.

If anyone lobbied Kodak really hard, to convince them that there is a demand for an OSX-compatible version, I know they would listen. If only they had money to finance it...

Hmm. My guess would be that the people who developed those tools are long gone from Kodak... Graeme Gill.

I believe you are correct. At the time, the fellow who was running this was Chris Heinz and Jim Abbott. Shame, it was a wonderful product. I suspect the tagging of colors on the bottom of the image to be edited was some unique Kodak technology. The good news is that it still runs if you have an old enough Mac OS and hardware. I don't believe the product ever ran under Windows. Andrew Rodney http://www.digitaldog.net/
It would be useful to know when the patents run out. Edmund On Fri, Feb 8, 2013 at 12:33 AM, Andrew Rodney <andrew@digitaldog.net>wrote:

Guys German company Colorlogic (headed technology wise by Torsten Braun who originally co-founded LogoSoft and authored Profile Maker Pro - later purchased by Gretag Macbeth) has a product called CoPrA, a profiling suite for device and device link profiles. CoPrA Edit module works in pretty much exactly the same way as Kodak Custom Color ICC (and then some) with the exception that it creates a device link profile rather than a device profile. Awesome tool, works on OS X 10.8, Windows 7 etc. and is still in active development. http://www.colorlogic.de/en/copra.php http://www.colorlogic.de/help/?p=2471&lang=en http://www.colorlogic.de/help/?p=531&lang=en --- WARNING: Shameless plug ahead --- If you're looking for resellers I'd be happy to oblige <G> Best regards Thomas Holm · Color Management & Workflow Consultant · UGRA PSO Certified Expert (Process Standard Offset) · IDEAlliance G7 Certified Expert · FTA Certified First 4.0 Flexo Implementation Specialist Pixl Aps Bispevej 25, 2. sal DK-2400 København NV Phone: +45 3296 9014 · th@pixl.dk · www.pixl.dk (http://www.pixl.dk) On Friday den 8.

I dealt with a woman named Deb Koons who was part of their ColorFlow Tech Group. Tony -- Anthony R. Sanna SACO Foods, Inc. 1-800-373-7226 asanna@sacofoods.com
Hello List, The profiling application CoPrA has an internal Edit-Modus, which is quite similar to Kodak Colorflow. Please note, that CoPra has modules for creating and editing both printer profiles and devicelink profiles. I will explain the workflow for editing printer profiles which is a integrated part of the CoPrA printer profiling module. CoPrA includes special edit charts which are able to record color manipulations with an image editor like e.g. Photoshop. - You combine this edit chart with images of your choice and print it linear with a printer, which you have already profiled - You than open the edit chart with embedded printer profile in e.g. Photoshop. The result is a softproof of the linear printer (Alternatively you can use the photoshop softproof function to simulte more complex profile chains during edits...) - You can now use alle Photoshop tools to manipulate the colors of the whole editchart -(e.g. adjust gray balance, do some selective color corrections, use layers or masks/selections based on color range...) - The manipulated edit chart with the embedded printer profile is than imported into CoPrA - CoPrA extracts the embedded printer profile an renders the Photosop corrections into all tables of the profile (It calculates the new profile from scratch with its own profiling engine...) The description of this feature in CoPrA is a little bit misunderstanding: http://www.colorlogic.de/help/?p=2471&lang=en (shows also an example of the editchart (top) combined with ISO SCID Images) The whole process can be tested with a demo version of CoPrA. Please note that this demoversion creates encrypted printer profiles which can be used only inside the CoPrA demoversion to convert image files. The converted image files of the CoPrA demo version can be saved and used with other applications. Just ask a colorlogic dealer to get a demo: http://www.colorlogic.de/en/kontakt.php (dealers are listed by their clickable logos) Best regards Jan-Peter By the way, I asked colorlogic if they plan to offer the edit function for printer profiles as a separate licencable module. As nobody has asked colorlogic till today, they don´t offer it today.... Am 07.02.13 21:51, schrieb Jim Mitchell:
