Re: [Digital BW] Multiple ICCs applied to one file by selection area?

2012-03-15 by Paul

It's easy to use a non-ICC method  to put borders on the images, but the ICCs make linearization of the PS curve profile much easier.  Thus I had hoped to find a way to use the ICC for the image and not the border. It turns out to be not so simple, at least with just Photoshop.

I too was thinking Qimage may be the answer, but I could not tell for their web page whether it would  work.

Ernst, you noted that

The problem is that the ICC for the B&W image is  not appropriate for the border.

That was what I was hoping for.  

The ICCs (made with QTR's Create ICC-RGB) work well for printing, but if I use Edit>convert to profile or Assign profile, that does not work.  So, how does Qimage apply the profile? Would it be in a way similar to the when Photoshop manages and  colors  in printing?

I thought I might need to have separate images and abut them, but it  is  a rather clunky workflow.
