An artist friend of mine has asked me to take a couple of pictures for him. He wants them saved as TIFF images on a disc which he can then send to his printer for printing. He told me the printer would need a colour chart attached to these images for colour management purposes when printing. I've bought a colour chart and grey scale (copy attached). Any idea please on how to attach a copy of these to the image to save to disc? I use an Apple Mac and Aperture. Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

In your position I'd have taken a version of each of the photographs to be printed with the colour chart prominent in the shot, using the same settings between shots. If you have changed the lighting, exposure or white balance settings between any of the shots then the chart shots will do far more harm than good.
