Steve: Problems with Create ICC 2.3.1

2005-10-18 by wwodets

Steve,

With 2.3.1 the white end was significantly off *on the print.*  The 
Soft Proof looked good.  In his last post on the QTR forum, Roy said:

"There are a couple subtle problems with the color version of Create 
ICC.  They have to do with scaling/mapping at the media-white end.  
These will take a little time to fix . . . The older version from 
2.3.0 can be used for the printing direction."
