Hello CD,

Your mentioning something rang a chord about monitor profiles in
Windows and went to the display choice in control Panel and the
settings tab and then chose color management which then allowd me to
go to find the SpyderPRO created profile and then selected that one
and as soon an ACR calibrator stops running I'll reboot and see if
thngs go OK then. Thanks for the inspiration.

Your friend in Photography ( and now color printing)
