Hi Philip,

It's great  to hear that you use an ICC colour managed workflow.

And that you will be supplying contract proofs.

Just for clarification , what settings do you use in Photoshop for the CMYK 
separations ? And what rendering intent ?

BTW , presumably you are using the Iris with a  RIP. It would be interesting for all 
of us to know how you configure the IRIS software using files with embedded ICC 
profiles , or do you strip the profiles before proofing ?

Well , here's the big question . Are you talking about a real contract proof ? The 
kind where you , as a company , guarantee it's accuracy for repro , with the 
subsequent liability for any claims should the  proof be innaccurate ?

If this is  the case , I would go to a company who were extremely well versed in 
colour proofing and understood the implications of supplying proper contract proofs. 
Oh , and of course the ability to settle any dispute with a third party either 
technically or financially.

Bob Marchant
