I’m trying to fine-tune my settings in order to produce the best color, and would appreciate any input.

For Color Settings, I’ve seletected the U.S> Prepress defaults. Color Management Policies are set to "Preserve Embeded Profiles". FYI, I have the Nikon D100, which is set to Nikon’s version of Adobe RGB.

My printer is an Epson Stylus Photo 925. Under "Print with Preview", the Print Space is set to Stylus Photo 925, and whatever particular paper I’m using (usually Epson’s glossy photo paper). Intent set to perceptual.

I’m finding that if I change the document’s source space from the imbedded profile – Nikon Adobe RGB (i.e. choose Convert Profile), to the Color Settings profile – Adobe RGB – I get better colors. Leaving the documents source space as is produces a slight green/blue cast.

Is it recommended (i.e. would it be a good idea) to change the Color Management Policies to "Convert to Working RGB"?

Thanx!
