Chris, This sounds a little confused. I can't imaging anyone wanting to print their portfolio from photoshop through a rip. There would be no advantage to doing this as photoshop is a pixel based application and a rip is specifically designed for dealing with vector / text information. A rip is primarily designed to interpret this vector / text info and deal with aspects of cmyk colour separation on the way to offset litho. Often rips will deal with aspects of colour fidelity at the expense of print quality. Designers tend to be more interested in looking at how the artwork is going to look on press rather than achieving that 'photo-quality' look that photographers want. If you really want to achieve good looking portfolio prints, you will need photoshop, a good profiled monitor and a custom profile for each printer. Only then will you be in the ball park to predictably control and view your images. There is a London based bespoke profiling service which I can recommend; take a look at... http://www.profile-lab.com HTH, Michael =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
