Re: [Digital BW] really stupid question - epson profiles

2009-06-22 by CDTobie

I add profiles all the time while Photoshop is open.  To get it to recognize 
them on the fly, just go into the proof colors (view/proof setup/custom).  This 
works on Windows, can't vouch for Macs.

Works on both, as it forces Photoshop to reread the list of available profiles.
