Digital BW, The Print

Carolyn

Not sure I understand you.  I have PS set to ask what to do when it
encounters a profile mismatch, eg importing a file that is tagged
differently from the workspace (eg a scanner profile).  I convert to my
workspace.  In Color Settings I have the conversion settings set as relative
colormetric (black point and dither etc).  So this gets used when dealing
with space conversions or when switching, say, between QTR Grey Lab and
Adobe RGB for sharpening - actually for everything except when it comes to
printing.  I was asking what others used for this setting.
