Qimage Studio - In the slot for the ICC there are "mystery letters" - B, BPC, at the moment in my copy of Q. My gues was that these mean "Border" (but no border has been chosen) and maybe "Black Point Compensation" (but that doesn't seem to make sense either). Where can I find more info about these letters?

Hi Bill,
They are the the settings for Rendering Intent and indicate whether Black Point Compensation is on.
See screen shot of the Edit preferences, Color management dialogue.
You can read about it here or Google yourself:

Black Point compensation is mentioned near the end of the web page, just before "Recommendations"

Terry - Thanks very much! I don't think I would ever have found that on my own. (Maybe I shouldn't admit that, but it's true.)
