no ICC v2 or v4 support in Leopard?

TheBFC
Looking at the release notes for C1 Pro 5.1.2, the known issues indicate that: "ICC version 4 profiles and some ICC version 2 profiles are not supported for Mac OS Leopard, Windows 7 and Windows Vista"

Really?!?

How is one supposed to manage color with this release? Why even release the software?

    Seriously. Any input here? Did I read something wrong in the release notes?

    Does C1 Pro 5.1.2 support ICC profiles or what?

    If not, why would someone upgrade to this version?

    Seems like a major liability issue to use software that does not support color management.

    A little response here would be nice. Engineers? Support? Sales?

    For your information and help: for a response from Phase One you should direct your question directly to them, as explained in a sticky thread in this subforum. This is a user-to-user forum.

    Of course C1 does supply ICC profiles.
    I am not aware of any misbehaviour with ICC profiles in V4 specs. Only of trouble with naming conventions or certain tags in certain profiles (often multi language tags or unimportant things like that).
    From my point of view there is actually NO trouble with V4 ICC profiles... only with the encryption/translation of some profiles...

    Leopard: V4=no V2=yes
    Snow Leopard: V4=yes V2=yes. This is because Apple is supporting V4 in Snow Leopard.

    Windows (All): V4=no V2=yes.

    In order to implement V4 support across the board we need to implement an entirely new CMM in Capture One. This is of course something we are working on, but this takes some time since we have to do a alot of testing to make sure the CMM is up to our standards. 😊

    well, Color Sync supports V4 profiles since years. Maybe not any sophisticated feature that may be provided in a certain V4 profile (I don't know)... but Color Sync always could read the profiles in a correct way.

    Windows officially supports V4 since Vista.

    why not just support a switchable CMM? I'd appreciate to utilize AdobeCMM. It supports V4, of course. Photoshop is the de facto standard world wide... so it would be nice to color mange in C1 like ACE (AdobeCMM).
    Especially the Black Point Compensation for the translation to the monitor profile should be the same as in Photoshop.
    IMO there is no need for another proprietary CMM solution... just make the CMM switchable.
