| Thanks for the response.
|
| Based on your statement, following is my understanding.
|
| Minolta will have provided a Profile file, which will be laying some where
| in my PC. Vuescan will use this profile when "Device RGB" is selected in
| "Color | Color Space".

That is correct.

| "Device | Mode".

That, too, is correct.  It just accepts and throughputs the color space
selected by or for the scanner.  For example my Nikon LS-30 allows me select
among 5 or 6 color spaces - whichever I choose in the Nikon software carries
through Vuescan into Corel PhotoPaint.  For my Epson flatbed it results in
Epson's preset sRGB.


| In PS6.0 Color space will have the name of the devices too; like "Minolta
| Scan Dual II".


Unfortunately I haven't the foggiest - I use Corel PhotoPaint.

| To the best of my knowledge Device Profile applies to Scan and to RAW
scan.
|
| As to your second question, yes - "Device Profile" transfers the profile
of
| the scanner.  Vuescan itself does not apply a "Vuescan profile".

|
| | Hi
| | I use Minolta Dimage Dual II with Vuescan.
| |
| | In VueScan, Is it good to use RAW scan or Scan with DeviceProfile?
| |
| |
| | In VueScan, If I select "Device Profile", is it the  profile of the
| scanner?
| | In my PS6.0, I see two profiles related to "Minolta Dimage Dual II ",
but
| | none on Vuescan.
| |
| | Thanks in advance
