Re: Color conversion

You are correct, the softproof honoring SWOPv2 does not match their proof.

Also, I will not be assigning the profile created for there proof to just 
images, I will be using a devicelink profile and processing their PDF file 
through AlwanColor CMYK optimizer with ink optimization turned off. Only the 
profiles and the separations within the profiles will be used.

Have them send it to me so I can create a profile from the proof. Then, create a
device link profile using the profile created from their proof as the source and
the GraCoL2006_Coated1v2 as the destination. Then output their files to our
GraCoL 7 proof, we should be able to match it on press.>

You might want to double check that upon creating the new profile from their
proof, and assigning it to the images in Photoshop, that the softproof (on
your calibrated/profiled monitor) matches fairly well the proof they
supplied you. If it does, your solution should work. If it doesn't, there
could be some further color voodoo going on that you aren't accounting for.
I'm assuming that the current softproof honoring SWOPv2 does not match their
proof.
