This goes back a few days to an exchange of messages that culminated on December 8 with message 81984. My message and Roy's response are there. Since then I have followed Roy's suggestion and everything has worked fine. BUT prior to that message I was experimenting with one image and managed to CONVERT a GG 2.2 profile to Dot Gain 20. I'm not sure of the actual sequence. My color preferences were set to either 2.2 or DG 20, and I either convert at the point of getting a mismatch message or I converted using edit>convert. I may even have done this first one way and then the other. So the numbers have been changed, and the image looks bad on the screen and prints the way it looks. It is a very layered workfile with complicated selections/masks. I have the original, unconverted scan file. I could recover everything in theory by dragging and pin registering each layer from the workfile to the scan file. BUT the saved layered workfile has been cropped, so the above process will not work. I'm sure there is a straight forward way to convert back to the original numbers (so that the scan and workfiles have the same numbers), but I do not know how to do it, and I do not want to make matters worse. Any suggestions?
