Next, you’ll simulate onscreen how the document colors might print, and then you’ll bring those
colors into the printing gamut.


Proofing document colors on a monitor


You’ll select a proof profile so that you can view an onscreen simulation of what document
colors will look like when printed. An accurate proof profile lets you proof on the screen (soft-
proof) for printed output.


A proof setup defines the printing conditions, which determines the onscreen simulation.
Photoshop provides a variety of settings that can help you proof images for different uses,
including for different printers and devices. For this lesson, you’ll create a custom proof setup.
You can then save the settings for use on other images that will be output the same way.


1. Choose View > Proof Setup > Custom. The Customize Proof Condition dialog box opens.
Make sure Preview is selected.
