Newsprint settings

Can anyone steer me to newsprint profile settings?

Thanks to those who know more than me,

Are you asking about an ICC output profile for a press that is printing a newspaper?

[camelbreath]

yes

You should get the profile from the printer. Any generic output profile is hit or miss. Missing is expense! 

[NB, colourmanagement net]

Aswell as the newsprint profiles installed by Adobe, there are downloadable generic newsprint ICC profiles - either can be used as destination for a conversion in Photoshop [image/mode/convert to profile]

- it's very unlikely your print shop has profiled the press (which would produce a custom profile and is considered by many as not an ideal way to work), far more likely is that the process has been calibrated (adjusted) to run at [or close to] a generic 'standard' like IFRA.

You'd need to ask the print shop - if they can't help - then you're stuck with finding another printer or guessing which ICC profile to use. Not ideal
