I am using my D30 in RAW mode, and want to send my images to a lab using Fuji Fronteir prining equipment.

As I do not have a profiled monitor and printer, how do I ensure that the colours produced by the lab will be correct ?

I am using Bibble co do the RAW conversion, and there are some options regarding colour space and ICC profile. Does anybody know what I should use ?

Is it best to convert the files to Jpeg, 8 bit TIFF of 16 bit TIFF ?

Thanks
Andy

It really doen't pay to talk about profiles and such without first calibrating your monitor. Adobe Gamma is better then nothing. Then I think most labs want sRGB. If you search this topic above, you'll find alot of info on outside processing.
