Thanks Bill. I'll try that. Paul On Mar 5, 2005, at 10:50 AM, William Robb wrote:

Ok, I just remembered that the RAW converter can open a file in ProPhoto RGB color space. Someone here once said that's the widest gamut that's practical for photographic use. So I'm going to save my conversions as ProPhoto. When I have to print, I'll probably convert to generic rgb. I don't have a ColorSynch profile for ProPhoto, and I haven't had much luck printing from color spaces other than generic rgb. I tried Adobe 98 RGB this morning, and the resulting print was less saturated than my Generic RGB print of the same file.
An interesting exercise is to look at the histogram in the RAW converter as you change from one colour space to another.
