My problem is 'exactly and totally' what is described on Tyler's
document (and PiezographyBW manual).
1) I have a perfect 21 step wedge and
2) want to print it as a perfect 21 step wedge.
3) Both my scanner and monitor are calibrated using appropiate
tools/software

Either when ...

A) I set a custom "dot gain" curve (non-linear, stair-steps-like) and
apply to the image or
B) I use the previously mentioned curve as a soft proof profile, then
tweaking the image to get it right

... I'm changing the original gamma2.2 data. This doesn't sound right.

I just want scan/edit/view in gamma 2.2, I don't want to archive
different files for different papers. Is there a method to do it?

Regards,
Loris.
