Colorspace Deathmatch: CMYK vrs. RGB

[Slammer]

There have been a few nice discussions between CMYKians and RGBlings. So for playtime I ran a RGB file with a wide gamut RGB profile through my Softproof and made a sceenshot, then I converted the RGB file to CMYK in Photo using a Euroscale profile and softproofed it. 

Both files are not RIPped but simply exported to Tiff with the embedded profiles in Photo and sent to the Softproof, there is no TVI and no calibration, just the raw files

Methinks the difference between the two gamuts is quite large, for me I would stay in RGB until the RIP process.

By the way I am looking for the settings for TVI and GCR as well as UCR and can´t find them anywhere. Am I just too blind?

Further I released the CMYK tiff from the Softproof with their different profiles, a generic CMWK, Fogra39 and ISO coated, this is close as to how the finished job would appear in print. As you see there is a marked difference between the profiles.

Unfortunately these aren't available features of Affinity currently, although they have been discussed and requested here - 

I hope this helps!
