than sepia tinting. Its more difficult to find settings that offer a pleasing 
cool tone, and to get the right blend of enough cool in the darker areas, 
without it getting too blue in the highlight areas. I'm sure some experimentation 
could improve on the cool tones that shipped as defaults in PrintFIX PRO 2.
