What you need to know:

The Profiler application will not compensate for optical brighteners 
in paper! You will want a spectrophotometer with a UV filter to use 
with Profiler. Owning Profiler you have a MUCH more powerful software 
solution than what comes with the i1 photo package. You would be much 
better off buying an i1 Design with the UV filter spectro. Chromix 
still lists a rebate of up to $200 when you trade in an old spectro 
to buy an i1 package!!!
