Once you have defined the color space in which you are going to work, you can if you like make a
soft proof, which means emulating on the screen how the image will look when printed. To do this,
you will need an ICC profile for your monitor. Select View > Proof Setup > Custom. Use the
following information to select options in the Proof Setup window.
●
Profile: choose the profile based on the printer model and paper type you intend to use.
●
Preserve Color Numbers: this checkbox tells the application how to simulate the document's
appearance without converting colors from the Document Space to the Proof Profile Space.
It simulates the color shifts that may occur when the document's color values are interpreted
using the Proof Profile instead of the Document Profile. This option is not recommended.
●
Intent: this menu allows you to choose a rendering intent for the conversion from document
space to simulation space, letting you preview the effects of different renderings. See
●
Use Black Point Compensation: this option is recommended if you have chosen the Relative
Colorimetric rendering intent. See
Perform black point compensation on page 68
●
Paper White: this checkbox emulates the whiteness of the paper on the monitor. The effect
is the same as using the Absolute Colorimetric rendering intent.
●
Ink Black: this checkbox turns off the black point compensation for the rendering from
simulation to the monitor. So, if the simulation space black is lighter than the monitor black,
you will see the washed-out blacks on the monitor. This option is not recommended.
●
Preview: if this checkbox is enabled (recommended), the changes you make in this window
are reflected in the image immediately.

When you are ready to print the image, open the Print with Preview window from the File menu. In
the Color Management tab you can select:
●
Source Space: 'Document' (automatically assigned for you). This is the color space in which
you have been working while editing the image.
●
Profile: select PostScript Color Management (if you do not see this option, select Printer Color
Management). With this option, the application tells the driver which source profile and
rendering intent should be used for the conversion to the print space. In this case the driver
will use the 'Document' profile and the rendering intent selected below. The driver's Input
Profile and Rendering Intent settings are overridden.
●
Intent: see
Set the rendering intent on page 69
