Re: [Digital BW] Simulating Premier Art Matte BW split tone effect in Photoshop

2008-01-16 by Carl Schofield

Denis,

A QTR create-icc profile will do exactly what you have described,  
allowing softproofing in CS2.  I don't think Lightroom has  
softproofing capability yet.  You will need the Lab values obtained  
from a 21 step gray scale (printed with your split tone settings) to  
make the profile.
