Anybody out there using a high fidelity type rip, I.e. Ergosoft or Caldera for example, and using argyll to build profiles for it? I currently have been very satisfied with Texprint V14's colorGPS engine, but may look at critically evaluating how well argyll performs in comparison. Argyll technology is in use on our Klauscolour (TM Pending...) equipped Cruse Museum Scanner, and works fabulously well. Thanks be to Argyllcms!
