FOGRA52 & i1Profiler
Anybody made any profiles from the FOGRA52 data using i1Profiler? I’ve made some MaxK and Full Black profiles using both the supplied FOGRA52.mxf and by importing the raw ECI data and they produce a Y channel that has next to nothing in it if you use the profiles in Photoshop. If I plot the neutrals from the same profiles in Argyll’s xicclu the yellow behaves as you’d expect, but a conversion in Photoshop is completely messed up in yellow :( Thoughts? -- Martin Orpen Idea Digital Imaging Ltd

I guess that FOGRA52 isn’t that popular then? The PSO Uncoated v3 (FOGRA52) profile documentation says: The profile was created using the Heidelberg Color Tool 17 with the following settings: black length 9 (starting point 10%) black width 10 total dot area 300% maximum black 96% I can’t get yellow values anywhere near those generated by this profile using i1Profiler or ArgyllCMS. And nothing even remotely close to the neutral curves of the Heidelberg perceptual rendering. So I gave up and separated to a custom built FOGRA47L instead and then proofed the job to FOGRA52. I find it odd that the dark patch on the ECI/BVDM Gray Control Strip for FOGRA52 is C62 M55 Y60 — an ink combination that the ICC profile is incapable of producing... -- Martin Orpen Idea Digital Imaging Ltd
