RE: [Digital BW] Matching Monitor and Print

2005-04-12 by Paul Roark

Opps, changing the Color Settings doesn't work, it changes the RGB values.
The profile has to be applied as a soft proof like the custom dot gain
curve.

Is there a way to automate the View>Proof Setup>Custom (etc.) so that the
view is soft-proofed when it is opened (that is, without even having to hit
a macro key)?
