notebook display for image editing?

[_Mark_J_Peterson_]

Hi. Is there a high-end wide-gammut notebook display for color-critical image editing ?
What notebook would you recommend if you HAD TO recommend one ?
thanks.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah jetzt werde ich ruhig sclaffen können. :D

>Following Dan Margulis, Professional Photoshop, optimal offset printing results are achieved by final editing in CMYK.

None of which is remotely relevant to my workflow. I'll sleep well tonight. :)

Needless to say, I'm absolutely not in the Margulis camp myself. It was a relief to read his name in connection with this perceived issue, making it a non-issue.

The really important color is white - says the poet.

For the Spanish (and German) speaking readers.

Thank you for that. Alberti has long been one of my favorites. The translation into German is barely satisfactory, within the limits of the paradox of literary translation, namely that it is both impossible and necessary at the same time.

The painting by Monika Hoffmann is beautiful and particularly appropriate. May I ask what the relationship to Prof. Gernot Hoffman is?

Ramón,

I'm really happy that I found something where we
can agree ! Meanwhile some typos were corrected.
Please don't call me Prof. - I'm not posting as
a scientist here. Monika is my wife.
I started learning Spanish three months ago, but
I know these lyrics since many many years.
By Enzensberger's Museum der modernen Poesie and
by Paco Ibañez. At least Enzensberger's translations
are IMO pretty good (Lorca, Cancíon).
Here are some other examples, including Cancíon,
but only in Spanish:

THANK for this link Gernot Hoffmann.

I have a question to you: your profile oRBG are he good to make convert to profile euro coated?

thank

[Gernot_Hoffmann]

Kokii,

the gamut volumes of ISOCoated and EuroscaleCoated
are entirely inside the volume of oRGB=OptiRGB.

Nothing wrong, using oRGB, besides the fact that we
will be the only users ...
For other readers: oRGB is a wide-gamut RGB space
with spectral color primaries (real colors).

If you have ProfileMaker5 (or 4): Compare gamuts
in ProfileEditor, GamutView by different graphics.

Best regards --Gernot Hoffmann

Referring to my previous post:
not Cancíon but Canción.

I was thinking ... does it matter at all, if we were the only users ... ? As long as we embed the profile into the files, I can't see any problem with this, right ?

Christian,

thanks for being interested in my stuff:

The data for OptiRGB and the 2D gamut version are shown

here, p.17:

The profile can be downloaded:

It would be simple, drawing a 3D visualization:

OptiRGB has been an exercise - a wide gamut RGB space

with real, physically possible primaries.

ProPhotoRGB isn't that bad - in some cases it seems to be

a practical solution:

I had printed page 9 of the following PDF, where the colors

are defined by CIELab:

http://www.fho-emden.de/~hoffmann/munsell15052009.pdf

Though I'm using high end equipment (better no name, the RIP

isn' an Adobe product), the result was not convincing.

IMHO CIELab isn't treated as it should be.

Then I converted the PDF by Acrobat 8 into ProPhotoRGB

(pRGB), but without being able to assign anywhere a rendering

intent. I think, in this case it's OK, because pRGB has

white at D50 and they grays are reaching from L*=0 to L*=100.

The printed result, now using pRGB as input profile in the RIP,

with rendering intent Absolute Colorimetric on almost neutral

paper, was considerably better.

The ProPhotoRGB file, loaded by Photoshop, echoes  the correct

Lab values - within 1 unit accuracy, despite only 8 bpc numerical

resolution.

If somebody wants to continue the discussion: I'm asking politely

for a direct personal post via

MyFamilyName-with2n@fho-emden.de

because I don't like the new forum style.

Best regards --Gernot Hoffmann

>>If you have ProfileMaker5 (or 4): Compare gamuts<<
sorrow. i dont have...

could you make printscreen [3d GamutView by different graphics] for me with ISOCoated and Euro scaleCoated inside oRGB between aRGB?

i very assessor this
