I have Inkscape 0.46 (with liblcms_1.dll in C:\Program Files\Inkscape\
installtion folder) on Windows XP SP2 (and all patches until present).
In the *Color Settings* control panel , I have set the device
profiles as follows:
@ 'Displays' -- BenQ E2200W (Digital) on Radeon 9200 Series
@ 'Printers' -- Epson IJ Printer 06 on Epson Stylus CX6900f
(multifunction)
@ 'Scanners' -- Epson Stylus CX6900f/CX7000f/DX7000f scanner -
reflective
The *Color Management* page in the *Inkscape Preferences*
dialogue
neither displays correctly nor allows profiles to be
specified.
In case the embedded pixmap is stripped by the listserv:
@ *Display profile* display <none> and a profile cannot
be set. (Fallback is to mark 'Retrieve profile from display' but I do
not know if this is actually happening. There is a manufacturer
supplied profile for my LCD monitor.
@ *Device profile* drop-down is distorted and does not allow
selection of the inkjet printer or an industry CMYK profile such as
SWOP ( US Web Coated).
I would like to use colour management in Inkscape if I can,
particularly to preview graphics intended for a particular press and
paper stock. But first some answers to a few questions:
@ What is Inkscape's working colour profile, if any? Adobe RGB 1998?
@ Where do you store ICC *.icc or *.icm profile files on the Windows
version of Inkscape? Or does it use the Windows system profiles in
C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color ?
Any advice about getting the colour-management functionality in
Inkscape to work will be gratefully received.
Regards,
Hedley
