Re: [Digital BW] color management with too many settings
2005-11-23 by Barry Schaffer
Hey Jack, I assume you are referring to Performance & Quality, Custom Color, Color Correction and the nVIDIA Display (which pulls up the 6800 settings) for the Dell 1905FP. Am I forgetting anything? So many settings, so little time. The LCD resolution and refresh are at optimum. I'll check that site out and many thanks for the reply. Please let me know if I have that stuff above straight. I was going to upgrade to CS2 but I'm not sure I want to get involved with more distractions. I was a happy old cat but now, I don't know. Thanks again.....................Barry Thanks.

Your monitor should profile quite well with either of these and you need not bother with any of the nVidia settings. Ian Lyons site may be of help for you, with both the monitor profiling, as well as the use of printer ICC profiles in PS 6. http://www.computer-darkroom.com/ All the best and good luck......................
