View > Proof setup - what does it mean?

[dpastern]

Sorry guys - I don't have an internet connection on my PC, where Photoshop CS2 is installed, I'm using my dad's 56k dialup connection at the moment for all internet activies at home. The help files are screwed and help won't open (this is the 3rd time that Photoshop CS2 has done this in just over a year btw - very annoying). I know how to fix it, but alas the internet connection issue...

Anyways - I wanted to find out what the View > proof setup menu actually meant/did, but without the help files I couldn't tell. Could some kind person let me know!

Thanks René - will do. As usual, your help is much appreciated! Thanks for that article (which I have partly read) - it has helped me set up my monitor and applications correctly and will hopefully result in more accurate colours from me!
