Many transformations in PWP have an Amount control which is used to blend the result of the transformation with the original input image. In addition to the slider which runs from 0% (the input image is simply copied to the output image) to 100%, you can also use this control to select a mask for th...

Currently the only transformation that uses multiple cores is bilateral sharpen. We are looking at supporting multiple cores across more transformations for future versions.

I would guess that applying the inverse monitor curves on the Adobe RGB file but using the printer profile as a proofing profile might work the best, but it might be worth experimenting.

Monitor curves don't affect the image data at all so there is no connection between using them and converting the image to another color space. The only effect occurs when you print and check the inverse monitor curves box. Thus the files you mail to a lab are not changed by monitor curves and there...

It works well with Vista 64-bit (but still runs as a 32-bit application and thus does not take advantage of the larger available address space potentially available).

While I have not actually tried it, I would be very surprised if there was a problem. In the unlikely event that one showed up we would fix it promptly.

Unfortunately since our supply of calibrators dried up so we are no longer actively developing this product.

As you mention, you should be using ICM. Problems with prints looking too dark usually stem from profiles being made with as assumption of prints being viewed in bright light - if you take you print outdoors you may find it looks a lot better. PWPs Monitor Curves (Version 5 only) was designed to hel...

The problem with using too small a gamut is saturation clipping, not brightness clipping.

This is exactly why I don't recommend using super-wide color spaces - most colors are compressed into a small area and there are not enough bits to avoid posterization which is exactly what you are seeing. Chrome 2000 was designed to just capture the entire gamut of slide film. Unfortunately I have ...
