Subject: Color Profiles for Scanners
Would you be so kind as to forward my question to the filmscanner list?
I'm
on the digest and just figured out that I can't post a question
directly.
Many thanks.
Rob

for Scanners
I have an Acer Scanwit and under the scanner properties in Win98se it
lists
an sRGB color profile as the only profile associated with the scanner.
My
colorspace for Photoshop is AdobeRGB. Do I need associate AdobeRGb
with
the scanner or when I set AdobeRGB as my colorspace in Vuescan will the
scan come into photoshop with AdobeRGB embedded? I could not find an
.icm
file called AdobeRBG, but since Pshop's using AdobeRGB I guess it has
to be
on my system somewhere, maybe Adobe just named it something that is not
obvious to me.
Or, since I am getting good prints with the setup as it is (color on
the
monitor matches pretty well with what I'm getting out of the printer)
should I just leave it alone? Am I limiting the scanner input with this
profile? Would another profile give me a wider range of colors?
Thanks in advance, to all.
