I had a problem with the i1 monitor profile (Windows XP) When windows started, I could see that the profile was applied, screen colours changed, and then later during startup, they flipped back to what looked like the default profile (in any case just a lot brighter in my case). In Startup, there was a utility called Logo Calibration Loader, run from the i1 installation folder. I have no idea what this is supposed to do, and didn't bother to find out, but I disabled it, and the monitor reverted to the profiled colours I was expecting. There is also the Adobe Calibration Loader utility which I assume tries to load the profile saved during the Adobe Gamma process- I disabled that. Sorry I have no technical input on the whys and wherefores of this process, but it seemed to work for me Cheers Richard _____ From: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of wwodets Sent: 13 September 2005 00:31 To: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Digital BW] How Photoshop uses monitor profile? In corresponding with Steve on various monitor issues, he asked if I was sure that PS was actually using my i1 monitor profile. I had always assumed that PS used the Windows system setting for the monitor profile. In researching this it appears this may not be the case. Although Adobe Gamma does not load on startup of Windows, it appears that it may b necessary to use Adobe Gamma to specify which ICC profile to use. See Adobe document 321608 for the full story. In spending an hour on the phone with Adobe, they are confused about how to specify the profile for PS or how to determine which monitor profile PS is actually using. Clearly I am looking at PS through the profile, which affects the screen and all programs at startup. But does PS need to know the profile to translate between working space and screen view, etc.?
