Hi,
I have been learning how to transition from a sRGB Photoshop processing workflow to a ProPhoto RGB Photoshop environment.
In the short term I have been exporting jpegs using the "save to web" Image Ready routine which is where I convert to sRGB colorspace and embed the sRGB tag.
You might want to look at the
sRGB v4 Preference profile, but its use is unclear to me. In the example on the ICC web site, one starts out with a ver 2 sRGB profile, assigns it to the ver 4 sRGB profile and then prints using a ver 4 printer profile, using the desired rendering intent. This is covered in the ICC
White Paper 26 document, but the whole process does not make sense to me.
The problem is that I don't have any ver 4 printer profiles. Normally if one is going from a wider to narrower space, such as ProPhotoRGB to printer, one uses the printer profile to do the gamut mapping, not the source profile.
To add to the confusion, there is also a
sRGB Appearance Profile, which is covered in
White Paper 42Expert comments are welcomed.
