Danke für dieses Tutorial - inhaltlich ist das genau die Art Tutorials die ich hier zu hoffen finde. Ohne grossen Schnack auf den Punkt. Super nachvollziehbar erklärt. Merci vielmals
-> www.mibreit-photo.com/tutorials/how-to-print-photos.html#converting-the-color-space The ICC you use during soft proofing is just for simulating colors and paper and for adjusting the image to compensate for it. You still remain in your editing color space - ProPhoto or AdobeRGB - at this stage. At the end, you convert the color space to what your printer / lab can handle. I describe the considerations in the article I link above.
If I have adjusted the settings on the copy photo with the required ICC profile, how do I deliver the adjusted copy photo to the printing service? In other words, how do I save this 'new' photo with the ICC profile?
You might find my in-depth article about printing helpful. I also cover export -> www.mibreit-photo.com/tutorials/how-to-print-photos.html#converting-the-color-space Most labs will require you to convert your files to either adobeRGB or sRGB at the end. You best check with your lab. The profile you used for the proofing is really just for that, the proofing. You should not convert to it, except if your lab explicitly tells you to do so. Once you made the conversion, save it as tiff for highest quality if your lab supports it.
Very informative, Michael. Additional note for do-it-yourself printers: There are significant differences between paper/profile combinations from different paper vendors. As you mentioned, some matte papers are very limited and your soft proof view will be far off. Luckily there are some newer high end papers where the initial soft proof view is already spot on. Such matte paper examples are for instance the latest Canson Arches 88 papers…one can easily check this by downloading the ICC profiles before purchasing a certain paper.
Well thank fek, I am not going mad. Just spent a day pratting about trying to work out why Some White Wall ICC profiles do not appear in Lightroom. Thank you for your time its good to know I am not the only one with this problem and then forced into the same solutions.
Excellent and detailed videos. I was struggling with soft proof technically in Photoshop and i am so glad you made it so much clear with this video . Tank you so much 🎆✊🍷🤠😅
very well explained Michael. Thank you. And I couldn`t have asked for a better "bedside manner" voice than yours to do it

You’re using the exact website I was having trouble with, thank you so much
Such a great video I have embedded it on my club website. Many thanks
A great tutorial Michael, Till I came across this video was struggling with soft proofing in Lr and it was very frustrating . Thank you!
I learned a lot! Thanks Michael!
yeah but what do you do in the end? just merg all the proof layers in cmyk file and call it a day?
For Photo prints, most labs Take Adobe RGB or sRGB - www.mibreit-photo.com/tutorials/how-to-print-photos.html#converting-the-color-space
Very informative Thanks ❤
Before printing should I save the picture in the icc color profile or what? I don’t understand the next step when the soft proof is done

Thank you. I would really love to invest in a good printer one day and become diy.
Great job, thanks a lot! 👍
