Adding profiles to output

Robert6
I am having trouble adding the labs printer profile to the output, the profile has been installed on the PC and is listed in CP3.7 pro and Photoshop CS2, but it is not listed in CP One 4 output profile selections, is this just in the Pro version? or am I missing something in One 4.

    Hi Bob,

    You could try to copy the lab printer profile to the CO4 common profile folder since CO4 maintains its own folders for input and output profiles. To be more precise:

    You lab printer profile is most likely to be found in:
    C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\spool\\drivers\\color

    Copy the profile file to:
    C:\\Program Files\\Phase One\\Capture One 4\\Color Profiles\\Common

    Restart CO4 and look in de profiles list at the Process tab. Let us know if it worked for you.

    Thanks Paul I have copied the profiles into the C:\\Program Files\\Phase One\\Capture One 4\\Color Profiles\\Common but they do not appear in the list in the output. What is strange it is picking up some profiles from C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\spool\\drivers\\color but not others. Very strange

    Bob, I noticed the same behavior of CO4 picking up some color profiles from the Windows system32 subfolder and showing them in as output profile on the Process tool tab.
    I tried this with the Apple RGB and Colormatch RGB profiles; copied them from the Windows system32 subfolder to the CO4 program subfolder as explained and it worked.

    No clue why yours did not. Can you give me clue of the profile file names you copied?

    I have started a case with Phase One about the prifile will let you know the reply, to then I will convert to the profile through a droplet in PS CS2..

    V4 does not output in table based (lut-) profiles anymore! (but pro will)
    only matrix profiles (display profiles)* are available for output.
    best regards.

    *such as sRGB, AdobeRGB, ColorMatchRGB, ECIRGB, AppleRGB, ProPhotoRGB ...

    Hi thowi, that is interesting information though I am not familiar with the terms and what they represent, it helps to know. Thanks for sharing.

    You're welcome! This is a change with further consequences - not only for output but for workflow at all: in V3 we could set any profile as working space. And if you use a lut profile (eg. output profile for a certain photo paper) as working space you will see a printer simualtion right in the raw converter (pseudo softproof).
    As the PRO version will have full proof profiling this does not affect pro users. But LE users can't adjust straight to output in C1 V4 anymore.
    I really understand that they changed this as there were a lot of (unexperienced) people having trouble with CM in C1 (and if you want to adress masses of unexperienced users you have to code everything simple and save - and this is LE, so it's understandable).
    But from my point of view it would have been better to lock the new concept in the preferences but allow experienced users to unlock it and access full colormanagement options even in LE (at least to set any profile as working space). Now you definitely need Photoshop beside C1 if you want to see what you will get in prints. Or the PRO version.
    Best Regards.

    Thanks again for explaining, thowi. I never considered soft proofing this way. I agree with your bulletproof statement when developing an application for the masses. Always balancing between simplicity and minimal confusion versus advanced options.

    Thanks all looks like I have got to wait for the CP 1.4 pro or use CP 3.7 pro as I have done up to now.
    Regards
