    You do your final PP to your image acording to the printer that it is going to do the job and then print a A4 proof and see if the printer can replicate your calibrated image on the screen.

    You can have in PSCS3 a soft proof on the monitor if you trust it.

    If you are happy with it then save the final version.

    I am sending my tiff files with open layers to a person that does all the work for me. He print an image according to his Monitor/printer and send it to me for my approval.

    Well...

    It looks like crap with soft proofing and looks like a very similar version of crap with the printed copy. So what do I need to do here? Calibrate my printer (which my Spyder 2 kinda does)?

    If I edit the image until it looks good in print (or soft proof) then it will look bad on the monitor and on other's monitors.

    What now?

    Cheers, Steve

    Steve, before you are going mad make sure that you have the proper printer profile for the paper that you are going to use.
    I can telling you that the person that do my prints for customers have an apple computer and monitor well calibrated and inspecial room so the light on it does not change the view on the monitor during PP
    Also he have a $ 6000 Canon printer and individual profiles for each type of paper.
    My work is close but the only way for him to produce the image that I like is for me to send the images in Tiff with all the layers open!!

    If you calibrate your monitor during the night and do the PP during the day chances are that the calibration is not good.

    For that reason I relay on the pros to do my work

    Cheers

    Re - Butterfly

    Resized it down from 800X800 to 600X600. Forgot about people with 1024X768 monitors. Did this on Photobucket's site. Don't reckon the result is as sharp as the original.
