One Foot in Mac - One in Windows XP

2008-09-21 by davedoughman

I'm moving from Windows XP to a new iMac w/Leopard 10.5 with Windows
XP running under VMWare Fusion - (so I can use my Photoshop CS3
(windows version), print with Qimage and run a few other windows only
pgms) All is running well - at the moment

When CS4 comes out I'll get it in the Mac version, (student discount)
but continue to print mostly with Qimage under Windows  

Just ordered Spyder3 Studio - (have been using Spyder & Printfix Pro
on my old Windows XP computer)

How do I set up my system using Spyder3 Studio for both Mac & Windows use?
- Monitor Profile under Leopard? Save under what file name?
- Printer/paper profiles saved under Windows for Qimage use just like
I'm now doing on my Windows computer. Any issues I should know about?

- Should I do some photo printing from the Mac side with iPhoto or
directly from CS4 Mac Version how do I save & select my mac printing
profiles? Can I save any new parer profiles I make under both the Mac
& Windows sides or must I reread the papers for each?
 
- I assume my existing Windows paper profiles should be reasonably
accurate until I re-profile them with Spyder3 Studio

Sound confusing? Try sitting here.
