I have been an increasingly happy user of rawstudio over the past few months. It's almost all I use now. I very much appreciate the recent change that supports thumbnail images from Olympus .orf files.
I am somewhat new to color management but have been trying to learn it since I have had rather unsatisfying results when I print images, and sometimes when sharing them. So, to get to the point here: What are the expected settings and steps to prepare photos for print by online printing service with rawstudio? I have calibrated my monitor with spyder II and Argyll, and retrieved the color profiles for the destination printers. I load the monitor profile in X using dispwin. In rawstudio preferences, color tab, I enable the experimantal color management. 1. I would expect my camera (Olympus E510) to set the color profile, but I set this box to AdobeRGB1998 profile that comes with OpenSUSE 11 (my distro) since I have set the camera to the Adobe colerspce. Does setting this override the embedded profile? 2. I set the display profile to the profile that I made using the spyder and argyll. Occasionally, while setting a profile I get a segfault, but I will send that crash report to the rawstudio-dev list. 3. I set the export profile to the profile for the destination printer and export the photos. The resulting jpg output is unusable. "Unexpected marker type 0x72". The file appears to have the icc information for the printer embedded. Are the above steps the expected usage? If, not, what should I have set? Thanks! --Dale _______________________________________________ Rawstudio-users mailing list [email protected] http://rawstudio.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rawstudio-users
