Re: [Digital BW] OT: Profile Prism experiences?

2004-09-24 by Kip Babington

I've used Profile Prism for several years and have been pleased with the 
results.  The profiles it produces certainly do make a difference - using 
the wrong one for the ink/paper combination in use produces some unpleasant 
results.  Using the proper profile produces nice results, but I can't say 
if it's a perfectly accurate print as I have no external reference to check 
against.  The program uses a scanner to produce the profiles, and I don't 
recall any instructions for using it with a densitometer.

The program used to be available as a free download with a 30 day test 
period before you had to buy it.  Why not give it a try?

Cheers,
Kip
