I meant the user can choose the intent that goes between each profile in our UI. They can choose the intent that comes after the input profile, after the printer profile, and after the proofer profile. Since cmsCreateMultiprofileTransform doesn't provide a place to provide these intents, I assumed lcms would use the intent currently set in each profile at each step. When the user sets the intent in the UI, we set that intent in the profile object. > Do you need proofer AND monitor combined? Why? Yes, I need the monitor profile because I'm color matching to the screen, as stated in my original message. This might be "soft proofing". > If you really need 4 profiles > (because abstract profiles, etc) you may consider using > cmsTrasform2Devicelink, but I would not recommend to use that unless > really > needed, because may result in loss of accuracy. > Maybe just using cmsCreateMultiprofileTransform and specifying the > printer > profile twice would solve the problem. Can you explain why the printer profile would be given twice? Would the proofer profile also need to be given twice? E.g. input->printer- >printer->proofer->proofer->monitor? _________________________________________________________ Steve Mills Me: 952-401-6255 Senior Software Architect MultiAd [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.multi-ad.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
