Re: [Digital BW] Quadtone RIP Faded print

2005-03-23 by aaashapiro

I am trying to use Roy's Lab Gray procedures but am having a problem 
(which may be that I am misunderstanding the procedure).

In PS I have edited the color settings to make QTR - Lab Gray the 
working space and this shows up in Print with Preview as the 
Document Source Space.

Then (still in Print With Preview) for the print space profile I 
enter the QTR-Gray Matte Paper profile. But then as soon as I move 
to other areas of Print with Preview, the print space profile 
changes by itself to QTR-Lab Gray - the profile disappears and is 
replaced by the working space!

Have I misunderstood what Stephen Kale means by "Then convert with 
perceptual rendering to QTR Gray Photo paper or matte paper ..." 

Any advice would be appreciated.
