Re: [Digital BW] Spyder 3 SR Extended Greys

2011-10-20 by Richard Smallfield

Hi Dana,
Although it's early days for me with the Extended Grey profiles, one good thing that I've found about using the colour driver and Extended Grey profile is that, even if one ends up doing the final exhibition print with QTR or ABW, one can achieve a guaranteed neutral grey proof by using the Extended Grey profile, which is then a benchmark against which one can compare the hue of proofs done with such as ABW or QTR.
