RE: [Digital BW] Re: Soft proofing profiles for QTR (Win XP) ?

Lou,

 

Thanks for the info ! I was trying to avoid the expense this involves
though…

I guess I’ll just create a set of prints with different variations and
decide with my eyes.

Jose,

Yes, there is a way and it is very accurate.  You can preview the 
tonal range and the toning or a specific profile in Photoshop.  You 
will need a spectrophotometer and a profiling package such as Eye One 
Match or ProfileMaker.  The soft proofing procedure is on Roy 
Harrington's website.  It's easy and fast if you have the spectro and 
software.  You build a small "proofing profile" and use it in PS only 
for proofing.  You can then create an adjustment layer to correct the 
image until you like what you see.  Then save it as a flattened 8-bit 
TIFF for printing.  You would still use the standard QTR profile for 
printing.  I have done it an it works great.  The match from PS to 
the print is outstanding.
