Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Gray-lab profile in PS color settings

2006-02-09 by Paulo Baptista

Thanks Roy,
I knew I was missing something really basic. Regarding the use of these  
spaces, should they be used during the linearization of the profiles created? 
In that case, am I correct to assign the working space (QTR-Gray Lab) profile 
to the Step-21-gray.tif file with when I open it? And, accordingly, should I use 
"gray-photo paper" as the print space for printing (on Premium Luster) the 
step tablet?
Thank you, 
Paulo
