Hi David,

Wow - that's some read.

Anyway I'm sticking to my version that the disabled preview should 
not show 100% any adjustment slider effects. this will then enable us 
to use the adjustment sliders to match the soft proof. Otherwise it 
is like trying to catch up with someone who is running the same speed 
as you - you increase your speed by 5mph, he increases his speed by 
the same amount too ie. you'll never catch (match) him.

So for now I'll have to use the 2 profile method - one for the 
softproof with the original measurements and another profile just for 
printing with adjustment sliders settings to match the print to the 
soft proof.

Looking forward intensively for any new development to the PRintfix 
pro application. Particularly if you can find a better way for us to 
check our patch readings.

I have just printed a picture that is the best that I have produced 
because of the printfix pro profiles. And even under daylight 
outdoors the picture hold up with little metamerism. And I've noticed 
there is a red glow in the skin tone that was missing in my earlier 
works before printfix pro.

No, i've still got some matching to do with my soft proof but I think 
that was an indication of the potential of customised profiling.

Got to rest my really beat eyes - it was an intensive weekend.

Thank-you david. I'm a printfix pro big time fan now.

I hope one day you will allow us to have a truly disabled 'show edits 
in preview' function ie. one that will only show in show proof the 
original measurements and ignore the adjustment slider effects. Then 
i can rely on 1 profile for softproofing and printing.

Adios. I sleep with a smile.

Ed.
