Hello guys, do you know if we should adjust black, white, contrast, ex... on camera RAW/Lightroom before converting a picture to LAB color space (photoshop) or should we do all the adjustment in the LAB color space?

is there any software that I can use to make L*a*b* color graphic? The one which has a feature to custom the l*a*b* value and then displays the color graphic based on the value we input

Photoshop allows you to work in a variety of colour space including Lab

I guess the definitions are a bit different for printing and visualization then. In visualization a is from green(-) to b for red (+), and depends on the bit depth it could be -127 to +128 value.

I beleive you are confusing grey scale with Lab.
