It isn't. Well, I suppose it could be, theoretically, for certain images with very limited colors, but the RGB and CMYK color spaces are too different in general. An additive display medium like a monitor and a reflective display medium like a print are two different animals. Even with properly profiled monitors and printers, some mental interpretation of what you see on the screen is necessary to get a good print. Some famous photographer (John Sexton, IIRC, but I could be mistaken) recently wrote that a lot of people are getting poor results these days simply because they don't make enough proofs before making the final print. The reason is that people are expecting too much from even perfectly profiled systems. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
