Nice introduction to the theory and practice of calibration and color profiles! Color management topics can be vexing and intimidating. But your walk through proves they don’t have to be.
The APC Pro ICC profile demonstrated by RC is offered by Artistic Photo Canvas upon request. You can use it to soft-proof and refine your images when prepping files for their canvas prints… or just use it to get some practice installing and working with custom profiles.
To request the profile, use the contact form at http://artisticphotocanvas.com/contact-us-form.html
