Re: [Digital BW] QTR-Create-ICC Profiles and Qimage Print to File

2006-01-01 by Steve Kale

I think Roy has a beta RGB version of the profiles whereby there are three
outcurves for the profiles, all set to the same numbers.

But in the interim, try doing the following:  in PS convert to the QTR
profile and then ASSIGN Adobe RGB or whatever Qimage demands.  Then print
with a Same as Source (No Color Management).  The first conversion will
adjust the file numbers whereas the assignment will not and so you should ed
up still sending the converting file numbers to the printer.  I think this
should work.
