p.1 #1 · Adding ICC profiles to CS3 for Mac


Could someone please help??

I need to add the custom ICC profile for Gallerie Pearl paper.

I'm using a Mac Book Pro / OSX and Canon i9900 printer.

At this point, the profile is sitting on my desktop. Please help me with the correct path to the list of printing profiles.

Thanks,
Tom Tolla

This will install it for the current user: Your Home folder > Library > ColorSync > Profiles

This will install it for all users: Hard Disk > Library > ColorSync > Profiles

When I look in >Profiles I see some profiles ie: (for my cin. display, etc.) but I also see other closed folders which I could open. Should I be seeing a folder for "printer profiles"?

No. You may well see a folder for a particular printer, and individual profiles within that folder. Apps which reference the Profiles folder "see past" the printer subfolders, so this allows you to organize your profiles by Printer subfolder. Think of it as a convenience rather than a restriction, and it's up to you whether you want to use that file-folder structure.

As for how many layers of folder superstructure are permitted, I don't know. You might well be able to have Profiles > Printers > Epson Printers > Epson 3800, and so on.
