Re: Observation on difference in PFP beta 1.7 and 1.5

2006-04-18 by Johnny Eades

Duh!!! This is Stupid signing in. Have you ever done something so long
the right way and suddenly completely forgetting how to do it. This is
called a SENIOR moment, unless it takes three days to realize it was
the wrong way. Well, my moment (days) was caused by my not realizing
the setting in Photoshop had changed (I had changed it) to an
incorrect settting. I had opened an image and had converted it to the
Colorvision printer profile and also viewed it with the printer
profile, noticing some difference but not understanding that I needed
to have left it with Adobe RGB color profile assigned it as it came
out of the camera, and then proofing it with the printer profile and
also printing it through the printer profile with no color management
in the driver settings. Now I am a happy camper (until I do something
stupid again).

Your enlightend friend in Photography,

Johnny Eades
