Need help softproofing in RT

No, the intended process in the Editor panel with the actual behavior (unfinished, I know, but we have only two hands and spare time) is :

  1. to set the the monitor profile to your monitor profile (this will never change unless your moving the editor to a secondary monitor),
  2. set the output profile to your print shop’s profile,
  3. enable soft-proofing (don’t forget the gamut check feature)
  4. adjust your image for printing to your liking
  5. switch back output profile to sRGB (with embedded sRGB profile, no the “NoICM” entry) ; maybe AdobeRGB is better, or another image output profile, I won’t enter in this debate
  6. process your image

5 and 6 can easily be done all file at once in the File Browser, but fine adjustments are done on a per image in the Editor, of course.
