Samantha LaRue Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'm not sure I understand your question? The orange carrots, in particular, look duller in the bottom photo when soft proofing is turned on. Is that what you mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 This looks quite normal. May I see a screenshot of your Proof Setup dialog? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasha Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 I was talking about the yellow mainly, on the eggs. It's had deeper yellow come through, kinda looks more 3D. 2Secs Damien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Is Perceptual specifically what they advise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasha Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 I just went to double check and they say this: To soft proof: View > Proof Setup > Custom... Device to Simulate: Your downloaded Loxley profile Rendering Intent: Relative Colorimetric Black Point Compensation should be checked Display Options (On-Screen): Simulate Paper Color should be checked (Simulate Black Ink will then automatically check) Click OK However on the accompanying pictures they got perceptual highlighted, that must be why i went for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Ok, definitely DON'T turn on Simulate Paper Color. They only say that for uncalibrated people who have their screens way too bright. Ok, if Perceptual seems to be what they use, that's fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasha Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 ok thanks! I have the bottom 2 turned off per your advice awhile back, ts just the difference seemed quite drastic in this case, i was wondering if something went wrong somewhere i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I have no reason to think the profile is wrong. But you won't know for sure until you get the photo printed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
