Digital BW, The Print

Hi again Jimbo.
It's my understanding that it does do 16 bit and has for some time.I wouldn't bet the farm on that understanding though as I don't consider Argyl as an area of great competence and experience on my part.It would be much better to go to the source for information.

I've learned how to apply it to my own particular needs by lurking and grasping bits as my, admittedly limited, talents allow.
One of the things I usually do when I find a source for something of interest to me is to start at the beginning and cycle through everything posted while taking from it what I can as I go.That takes a fair amount of time initially but, as I have more time than smarts or available cash, seems a good use of resources for me.I usually reach some sort of an "ah ha!" moment along the way and can draw out just enough to be dangerous to myself :-)

It does allow varied levels of quality from ok to extreme overkill as you choose.Also I will say this, the level of discourse on it's mail list is way up there with math and esoteric (to mortals anyway) color management "Strategery";-)

Personally, I think that almost any viable method of achieving decent profiling for people who don't and probably wouldn't have it because of cost is a very good thing. 

Best,
Duane

If theirs a way to get to a quality level of color management for folks without them having to go broke getting there. ..Well then that's a good thing to look at I guess..
