Defining profiles
For Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Mac OS computers, before you
can apply any downloaded or edited profile to a print job, that profile must
be linked to one of the predefined custom names, or you can set the profile as
the default for all print jobs (See Setting the default profiles on page 4-2).
There are 10 names available for custom profiles— Source-1 through 10 for
RGB Source, Simulation-1 through 10 for Simulation, or Output-1 through
10 for Output. For Windows 95/98, all profiles appear by their actual names
in the printer driver. These fixed names are used in the PPD so that you can
select profiles per job even if your driver does not have the capability to
obtain an updated list from the server.
NOTE: You can also apply a preset output profile to a print job.
NOTE: A custom simulation profile is used to illustrate this procedure. The
same steps apply for defining custom or downloaded output profiles.
TO DEFINE A PROFILE:
1. Launch ColorWise Pro Tools and click Profile Manager.
For the purposes of this example, assume DIC-new is a custom simulation
profile. As you can see, DIC-new has no information under the heading
“Appear in Driver as.”
2. Select DIC-new in the Simulation list, and click Profile Settings or double-
click DIC-new.
