Does X6 64 bit support Adobe CMM?
No Adobe does not have a 64 bit version of their color engine.
What operating system do you use?
Thank you guys for your replies! Currently we use Windows XP and thinking if it's worth upgrading to Windows 7, either 32 or 64 bit.
Ok upgrading shoyuld be a clean install not an upgrade. Also, if you use driver based euqipment, (meaning that you go file print) then do the research for 64 bit drivers first. If you use RIP based with EPS, PS or PDF files then have no fear 64 bit will have few to little issues.
I suggest the WCS color engine in Windows Vista and WIndows7.

Windows 7 is definitely worth the upgrade. but I would suggest Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit). The other versions have a few limitations. Accepted that there are a few software that aren't 64-bit ready yet, but whats stopping us being ready for them?
Windows 64-bit and CorelDRAW 64-bit is the best combo I have had in years. The scanning doesn't work, Adobe CMM doesn't work, as they are still not 64-bit ready, but eventually they will be and I don't want to be left out :)
If you try and compare COrelDRAW X5 vs X6, toolset-wise, they are basically the same, but performance-wise it's a whole lot better. Its the first 64-bit release, so we should accept that there will be a ton of new bugs.
For me the 64-bit version and the enhanced AI export were the deciding factors to purchase X6. I'll live with the bugs till Corel fixes them:) They eventually do.
Just my point-of-view :)

Now that's a no stress approach. Well said!!

[/quote] Most of my work is delivered to clients who ask for the final artwork to be delivered in AI format. I believe these people either have AI, or work with other people who do. The Adobe CMM obviously is the default color engine component for all the Adobe products and as it openly available too, it is my attempt at maintaining a common color workflow between CorelDRAW and AI. Hence my need for Adobe CMM to work. Please note, I am perfectly happy to use the default Microsoft ICM CMM at the moment. If and when there is a 64-bit Adobe CMM released I will definitely consider a switch.
