                <div><div class="section"><p>A <dfn class="term">target</dfn> is
a document you use when creating a custom profile. Generally, a
target document with swatches is supplied as part of a third-party
color management software package. You print this document with
all color management turned off in both Photoshop and the printer
driver. The third-party measuring instrument reads or scans the
printed target to create the custom profile.</p>

<li class="stepexpand"><span>Select Document. </span> <p>The profile is displayed in parentheses on the same line. </p>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>From the Color Handling pop‑up menu, choose No Color
Management. </span> <p>When this option is selected, Photoshop sends the RGB numbers
in the file to the printer without conversion. </p>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Access the color management options for the printer driver
from the second print dialog box, which automatically appears after
you click Print. In Windows, click the Preferences button to access
the printer driver options. In Mac&#160;OS, use the pop‑up menu
from the second print dialog box to access the printer driver options.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Turn off color management for the printer so that the
printer profile settings don’t override your profile settings.</span> <p>Every printer driver has different color management options.
If it’s not clear how to turn off color management, consult your
printer documentation. </p>
