Re: [Digital BW] color management with too many settings

2005-11-23 by Barry Schaffer

Hey Jack,

I assume you are referring to Performance & Quality,  Custom Color, Color 
Correction and the nVIDIA Display (which pulls up the 6800 settings) for the 
Dell 1905FP. Am I forgetting anything? So many settings, so little time. The 
LCD resolution and refresh are at optimum.

I'll check that site out and many thanks for the reply. Please let me know 
if I have that stuff above straight. I was going to upgrade to CS2 but I'm 
not sure I want to get involved with more distractions. I was a happy old 
cat but now, I don't know.

Thanks again.....................Barry

Thanks.

Hi Barry:

I have a similar configuration, using the 6600 video card rather than
6800, and it is best to run everything at default settings
(particularly resolution - important for an LCD monitor), and
calibrate your monitor with either a ColorVision Spyder II or Monaco
Optix colorimeter.  Your monitor should profile quite well with
either of these and you need not bother with any of the nVidia settings.

Ian Lyons site may be of help for you, with both the monitor
profiling, as well as the use of printer ICC profiles in PS 6.

All the best and good luck...................... Jack Winberg
