@Wolthera Yes :) I'm not excluding also a mistake or a hack in the *.icc too.
Again thank you for the Soft Proofing in Krita by the way and all 'color' chapter on the documentation. Super hyper precious in this project. I learned a lot.
Thank you.
I will look forward to seeing your consolidated report and to the book which sounds wonderful.
@Algot Thanks! I'll have to pay for the color proof version; negative or positive, I'll post a report about this important step in the process. I hope I'll have it around the 20 October.
I hope you have better luck, and you can share it ^^

Hi @davidrevoy
(and thanks for your amazing work and POV on free culture, as freedom not as beer)
About the printer... Are you saying their industrial machines work on GNU/Linux and not winsucks? Or it's maybe handcrafted work?
Thanks for the article, it was a very interesting read. (Especially since I use the same tools.)
I'm afraid I disagree with the quote, though. Prepress and printing is a complicated topic, and I feel PDF does a pretty good job at trying to be a document format that encapsulates all info a printer needs. It's a publicly available standard, and with LittleCMS being a very good CMM, if FOSS isn't really there yet, I don't feel it gets to blame the industry. (In this case. :) )
@davidrevoy I feel somewhat happy to learn that the other graphics applications have the same issues with softproofing, but that does mean we're all making the same mistake, or that lcms has some issue in softproofing :|
