Hello all !
I am a newbie at color management, and I am trying to understand…
1. I load an image, with the sRGB profile. It will be displayed in PS using my monitor profile : the colors will be displayed as well as possible (assuming my monitor is calibrated and profiled. It is). Correct ?
2. From what I have read, I should work on my image in the sRGB workspace, using my monitor profile, then check the result I will obtain on my printer, using soft-profiling. This operation then involves a number of trips between the two profiles. Correct ?
3. I understand that soft profiling does not actually change my image : why not make the changes to my image directly under soft-profiling ? I would still have the advantage of the wide gamut of my workspace (sRGB). Does that make sense ?
Thanks !
