ICC PROOFING VS UN-PROOFED
*Left Images were optimized with Icc profiles by Gold Coast Prints prior to photo printing. Right images were printed by other stores.
WHAT ARE ICC PRINTER/PAPER PROFILES?
​
The same image file will print differently on each different printer/paper combination. (Brightness, Vibrancy, Tone and Color will all print variably on different papers).
​
ICC files are used to digitally proof, edit and optimize your photo to suit each paper in photoshop or a similar photo editing software. This ensures that when photo printing your Gold Coast shots, they will look similar to how you view them on your colour calibrated monitor.
DO I NEED TO USE ICC PROFILES?
​
For the best photo printing results, ICC profiles need to be used in conjunction with expensive, colour accurate monitors and colour calibration equipment.
​
BUT DON'T WORRY! When you print with Gold Coast Prints,
we optimise your image/s free of charge to suit each paper so your prints come out how you expect them to.
