Does the soft proofing function in Qimage work in a similar, side-by-side comparison manner as does the Lightroom Classic’s soft-proofing? I love Lightroom’s workflow for this reason alone. And I’ve been curious about Qimage, but would not sacrifice the ability to do good quality soft-proofing.

From what I can tell, Qimage has capable soft proofing tools. For what it's worth, here's a quick comparison of Qimage One to Lightroom. I'm softproofing using my ICC for Premier Art Smooth Fine Art 320 GSM, a warm cotton rag paper (similar to Epson Hot Press Natural).

Without having the actual print as a baseline, this comparison doesn't say anything about the accuracy of the softproofing. What it does show is the following:

  • Qimage One takes a shot at getting the paper base the right colour (which Lightroom does not).
  • They seem comparable overall, and in shadow areas, which often are trouble spots.

CPPL softproofing, in contrast, didn't strike me as very useful.
