[Leica] Re: JPEG look on LR vs the web

[Frank.Dernie at btinternet.com (Frank Dernie)]

I get different prints using my normal Photoshop workflow and  
Lightroom. The lightroom prints are quite noticeably darker. The LR  
manual is unhelpful in understanding this, it almost says "don't  
worry your pretty little head" on colour balance - "we know how to do  
that automatically".
On the test I did the print from Photoshop using defaults was more  
like the monitor display and a preferable print to the one using the  
LR defaults. My attempts to understand why were thwarted by the manual.
