Re: Inks for Profiles

2003-07-14 by Mark Hahn

The Roark curves *are* your profile.  You have to tweak them to match 
monitor to printer.  I'm not sure how Paul calibrated his monitor 
prior to creating the curves, but that is what you have to match and 
then just hope the curves work out (they do for me).
