Hi

As the original poster of this thread, thanks Thomas and Tony, and also Bob
and Shangara for all your input on this problem. Neil Barstow has also
suggested to me that I could look at the internal name inside the profile.
Can someone point me at how to do this. ColorThink maybe, or GM ProfileMaker
must do it?

I had already tried several things to resolve it, including close/reopen
PShop and rebooting. An earlier version of the profile (with a different
filename) persisted in the profiles folder list when accessed through Proof
Setup/Custom, even when deleted from the profiles folder
(Windows/System32.......Drivers/Color). Before deleting this original
profile, I had loaded the new version of the profile having given it a
different name, so for a while there were two in there, before I deleted the
first.

Since its a 3hr return trip to the client, it's difficult to try solutions,
but I can try to test the Print Preview suggestion made over the phone, so
thanks for that. One of the problems of this work can be the state of a
client's system - maybe the XP installation needs an overhaul or update.

Another possibility that occurred to me was that the first proof setup was
in fact now referring to the second version of the profile, even though the
Proof Setup/Custom list wouldn't show the new filename. With hindsight I
should have tried printing with it while I was there.

Thanks everyone
