I lock them in the crawlspace with the wife. I sleep okay. Plenty of lotion down there.

Quote from: fummchumm on October 10, 2014, 08:04:30 AMYeah we used to output direct to GMG but now proof direct to Epson 9800 using DLPs via ColorPath Sync to achieve Fogra compliant proofs.

Why? GMG is far more superior than XMF in terms of color management. Just asking :-)

Cost. Why pay for GMG when ColorPath is adequate?

I thought you used to output to GMG. I assumed that you still have your GMG which is true, costly. That;s why I wonder why you stopped using it.

Just wondering, how do you enter measured values in XMF during characterization? Do you calibrate or just use the out-of-the-box ICC profile?

I've tried to talk my boss into spending the money, but not winning the fight.

I feel your pain, Tracy .....
