Hi,
first of all, i would like to say a thank you to all the active members in this forum, which help me a lot to find lots of answers.
Here is just my second topic but i will try to participate more.
I would like to ask you what we are supposed to do today with these both versions.
I am working with Lightroom 5.3, Photoshop 14.2.1 on a Macbook Pro Retina with OS 10.8.5, calibrated with a i1 Display Pro.
I would like to learn more in depth about color management. I read a lot, but still i have questions…
By default, i1 Profiler create my monitor ICC profile in v4 version.
Until now, i didn't see any trouble… but maybe it can be better.
Some say not to use v4 because there are applications and web browsers that don't support v4 profiles, but since i use Safari and the softwares listed above, i think that now they all support v4 profiles, aren't they ?
But i have a question… if i create a monitor v4 profile, does it should live in a total v4 ICC profiles environment ?
So, the working spaces we have by default in Photoshop, ProPhoto RGB, Adobe 1998 RGB and sRGB, are they v2 or v4 ICC profiles ?
I believe that they are v2 because i can find on the ICC Website a sRGB and a ProPhoto v4 versions, isn't it ?
Then, is having a v4 ICC monitor profile communicating with a v2 working space optimal ?
On the ICC Website, they praise the quality of v4 profiles but it's hard to find any tutorial on how to well implement them…
and here stops my expertise on color management
Moreover, i work with a printer who send me profiles for soft proofing, how can i know the version of them ?
Thank you.
