<title>Where do I get color profiles?</title>
26
The best way to get profiles is to generate them yourself, although
27
this does require some initial outlay.
30
Many manufacturers do try to provide color profiles for devices,
31
although sometimes they are wrapped up in <em>driver bundles</em>
32
which you may need to download, extract and then search for the
36
Some manufacturers do not provide accurate profiles for the hardware
37
and the profiles are best avoided.
38
A good clue is to download the profile, and if the creation date is
39
more than a year before the date you bought the device then it's
40
likely dummy data generated that is useless.
44
See <link xref="color-why-calibrate"/> for information on why vendor
45
suplied profiles are often worse than useless.
