Monitor and Color Settings First / Adobe RGB (1998) and sRGB

We at Vision Art have never asked or recommended any changes to your Monitors. We know you have them calibrated to your labs and we would like you to continue to do that. But, that said, there can be no doubt that if the settings are very different from what the printers interpret, you will find inconsistencies with your prints and monitor.

We do not want you to make monitor changes that will affect your other workflow. If you add these settings, remember to return to what you had previously when editing non Vision Art projects.
