In PL6, I use softproof on a VC, which can be adjusted when needed – without touching my edits.
With a VC it’s easy to compare (also between different attempts !) – and convenient to export straight from the softproof copy with “Same as Softproofing”.
If I could set my display profile to the same as SP profile then the compare button would work just fine.
Well, I’ve tried that in sRGB and AdobeRGB mode, as screen + Eizo’s color navigator software allow to do so. But it doesn’t change anything. I get to see the very same rendition as without “SP”.
- Inspite of being calibrated to the very same sRGB and AdobeRGB colour space, the profiles for my screen are not the same as those display profiles one can softproof to, “PSCA” included.
And having set up my screen for printing, I do not want anything to interfer (by default), but invoke softproof as needed.
What I can think of - DxO should let the user decide, how to start by default.
That could include a viable option for those working exclusively in sRGB.
