Thanks.
The one thing you have to understand about this whole Editing thing is:
You do remember the term WYSIWYG right?
Well, now that you are using programs that are capable of Advanced Color Management you are now above the level and outside the scope of What you see etc etc.
Welcome to the next Level!!

Using Profiles, and I mean Profiles for the Monitor, Printer, Paper and if I can get it done I also need to calibrate my camera to the ACR. I think it would make my life a bit easier but its not bad now.

Thanks for the "K".
