We have been struggling with the problem of not being able to print profile targets through Adobe Photoshop CS5 since its release. Some of our clients only run CS5 so we couldn’t get them to print a set of targets for us to profile. The problem is that there is no longer a “No Colour Management ” option in CS5 —which made creating a media profile impossible.
Well, after the colour management community complaining about this problem for sometime. Adobe have come up with a work around.
Adobe ® Color Printer Utility is an application to print your targets without colour management applied. This will only work with TIFF files, which wont be a problem if you get us to produce the profiles, as all our targets are already in TIFF format. Thanks Adobe for finally getting right.
