Helo everyone.
I need some help!
I'm trying to reproduce a set
of drawins to make copies as faithfully as possible. I have used a grey
card in order to fix colors (wb) and exposition. I figured I could do
that by measuring 127, 127,127 in the card, but the result has been
absolutely unsatisfactory.
I know I can't control the printer output
as I don't have any specific icc profile, but even the jpg images are
very redish/yellowish, and very clear compared to the originals. The
printed copies were even worse (clearer more saturated and
redish/yellowish).
I've been looking into the messages and I'm
overwhelmed by all the concepts involved. To begin with, I don't know if
I should disable the base curve, as it tends to add saturation. I don't
know if the input color profie should be linear or not. Then comes the
output color profile "to the rescue":
output, perceptual?;
screen
output, ¿?;
output profile: AdobeRGB?;
printer profile, a CMYK icc
that I dont have?
screen profile, OS.
Then, in lightroom mode,
export, I have another intent (I asume image config will take into
account the adjustments I've already done) and another profile...
My
simple question is: Which would be the best workflow to produce a
faithful copy of a picture/drawing?
I hope someone can help me if I
have made myself clear enough (which I'm not sure of)
Thanks in
advance.
