Title: How to load a Hahnemuhle profile
Post by: sonamair on February 10, 2008, 10:18:05 pm

A simple question I am sure for those that have done it.
I am using a Mac with 10.4.11 and have a new Epson 11880. I wanted to try some sample papers I got fom Hahnemuhle. I found the appropriate ICC profile from their web site. I downloaded it then click on it. I dragged it into my systems folder. It does not show up in my ICC profile choices when I go to print. What am I doing wrong?
Can you give me a step by step detailed approach?
I have the 188gsm and 308gsm photo rag papers to start
I have always used Epson profiles until now....
Thank you
Howie

Howie,
Where did you exactly put your profile? It's supposed to be in /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/  (or ~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/  )
