ABSTRACT

As we’ve come toward the end of our color management journey, there are a few utilities to investigate. Many may be useful additions to your imaging and color management tool kit. Some of the utilities discussed are free, others are commercial products. All the utilities have merit (I wouldn’t discuss them if that were not the case), but don’t feel that you need to rush out and purchase every utility known to man until you’ve become comfortable with color management and Photoshop. Some of these utilities are very good at evaluating profile quality. Others are excellent for learning about profiles and their internal functions while ensuring all your profiles are functioning correctly. Some of the utilities are for speeding up production of color management in the pipeline. Such products can be tremendous time savers.
