User`s guide

5-14 Microtek ScanWizard 5 User's Guide (Macintosh version)
1 Display using monitor compensation: This
box pertains to how your monitor displays
color, relative to the RGB Destination color
space. It is best to have this box checked so
that there are no unexpected color shifts
between your selected RGB Destination
space and your monitor. See the Appendix
for more information.
2 Monitor: The monitor selection shown here
is the monitor set in your Apple ColorSync
Control Panel.
To verify this information, go to your Apple
Menu, select Control Panel, then Color
Sync. Your selected monitor will be shown,
which should be the same as the entry in this
dialog box.
This setting only affects how the image is
shown on the screen — not the final scanned
image.
3 RGB Color Matching: This box should
generally be checked unless you want to
scan raw color data, in which case you lose
the compensatory effects of the Color
Matching system.
Note: It is not desirable to scan in raw data
and then perform ColorSync data conver-
sion, which will not generate the correct
CMS effect.
4 (to be added)
5 RGB Destination: This feature lets you
select the ICC profile in the ColorSync
profile folder for outputting images to the
RGB color space.
You may select from monitor, RGB printer
(e.g., inkjet printers), a special color space,
or the Adobe Photoshop 5.0 internal color
space profile. For Photoshop 5.0 users, this
should always be the same as your RGB
working space as defined in the Photoshop
5.0 RGB Setup.
A large number of RGB profiles is supplied
by ScanWizard 5. If you do not see the ICC
profile for your monitor or RGB device,
contact your device manufacturer. To load a
specific ICC profile from a different folder,
click the RGB profile button and select the
profile.
6 Preview check box: This immediately
updates the Preview window image when a
new color profile is selected. This will reflect
colors consistent with the newly selected
profile.
7 Profile Information button: This lets you get
information on currently used ICC profiles.
Note: For advanced users who wish
to know more about color matching,
refer to the Appendix at the end of
the manual.
