Can anyone advise me on the conversion and submitting CMYK for the first time?   (In a language that is slow and easy to please)

There is more discussion on this subject (and opinions) that Carter has pills and I have read many of them... but I'm still confused and since I was less than 7 hours to solve this problem, I'm crying out for more help.

1... I know that I need more to learn about this... but that does nothing my period

2nd... This is a simple corporate Head-shot that is produced in a print magazine with an article written by my client.

3rd... The Publisher asked for the photo to be in CMYK mode and since this editor is in the USA, my assumption at this late date is that the standard CMYK color profile - U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 produced by Photoshop is enough.

I can be on the right track now, but I'm completely side stepping of Lightroom for all editing and staying in Photoshop in Adobe RGB (1998)

At this time, when I click on view and choose a PROOF, CMYK is selected.  I don't know if it's accurate, or if the selection is premature.

I plan to complete my edits in PS and then click on IMAGE, click MODE and choose CMYK.           Currently, for my editing process, it is set to RGB

Hopefully save them as CMYK will be available after changing the MODE, but my save as feature currently available, available only ADOBE RGB (1998).  Also save a copy and a box to include diapers or not.

Yesterday, when working on this folder, I clicked on the EVIDENCE and CMYK, but I didn't see any difference in the editing...  It maybe because I exported a ProPhoto since Lightroom file as a basis to begin by... I'm not sure, though.

My concern is as follows... yesterday, I have saved in a CMYK file and it looked fine on my monitor.  I sent it to the customer (I chose the JPG extension) and when she had, the colors were OFF.  She sent the files back to me, and they were indeed average off...  He told me that it was not a matter of calibration of monitor between his PC and mine.   Which brings me to the last question... my monitor is calibrated "to eye" to a company of printer that I use for my regular photography - which worked great!    And unfortunately, at this late date, I can't get a profile of the printer of the editor.

Thanks for reading all of this... I wonder if my current game plan is sufficient for this late hour...

No Lightroom

Edit in Photoshop in ADOBE RGB (1998)

Keep selection 'PROOF' in CMYK, so that I have change

At the end of my edit, click MODE and change to CMYK

Save the file with CMYK to jpg.   (all other types of files are too big for the customer to manage e-mail)

Am I missing something?

There are a number of potential problems here, and it may not be at your end.

First of all, it should be clear that CMYK is not so much a generic "image mode" because it is a description of the specific press conditions. If you produce final CMYK, you need to have the right profile. Do not use Image > Mode, use Convert to Profile.

Given that, I wonder anyone who does not accept the Adobe RGB photographs for a magazine article, because it involves a process that doesn't is not correctly color generally not up to date and not managed. A typical workflow would today use InDesign, where images are usually placed in their original space of RGB whatever that is. Then the final conversion output CMYK is made as the last step, when you generate a ready PDF to InDesign.

It helps if you know the final CMYK, because then you can the evidence for that so your file survives the CMYK conversion with the least possible damage (we're talking range cut here, not general color moves). But it is not absolutely necessary, that is why this workflow is relaitively safe.

Thirdly, CMYK jpeg is itself risky, because several decoders of jpeg (in some software) is not a proper CMYK support. The result can be weird colors. This could well be the problem here, because it sounds as if your customer uses a non-standard workflow.

So what to do? I would send two files. A sRGB as a reference, which is guaranteed to come out correctly. Then find a way to send TIFF to CMYK version if they insist, or ask them to try to open it in different software. Of course , you should have a calibrated and profiled monitor, but I agree this is probably not the immediate problem here. There is no particular reason that a CMYK file should return to the colors twisted if he opened and processed in color management software correctly.

  • problems of the admin: message saying insufficient privileges: you must be an administrator when you run this application for the first time

    I bought this new comp with windows 7 already installed. has worked fine up intill a week or two it y a. I installed a new game, and after installation, I press launch to play it and pop up with a message saying not sufficient privileges: you must be an administrator when you run this application for the first time. also, I thought that I must be the administrator when I tried to launch the disk defragmentation. my account is the administrator account so I don't understand why they say that.

    I'm sorry. I was reading through additional FAQS regarding the same problem. I saw where someone said to try to add another admisistrator account to try to take on the former. but I had no luck with this ether. I also downloaded the program of the UAC, and I turned it off, reset my computer and still no change to my problem. I also tried to download the MSE restore tool, but I found myself with a message saying that I have no MSE

    Sorry, the MSE tool is to set the MSE when its broken.
    UAC controller Tool v1.0 can be used to control the
    The UAC settings.

    However, I suggest you restart the PC and after BIOS hold the F8 key
    and when the Windows Startup Menu appears, select Mode safe mode with networking.

    Now, you will enter Safe Mode. On the page to connect, you will see the
    Standard Windows administrator click it to open a windows session, press and hold
    in mind, the password can be blank.

    Once you have done that make a new account administrator and giv it a name.
    Restart the PC. That you did this newspaper using the new account.
    Once you have done that decide what to keep with your current administrator
    account once you've done it restart the PC, BIOS hold down the F8 key and
    Select Mode safe mode with network and enter dependencies the Standard Windows administrator.

    Go to control panel-> user accounts control and security for the family-> user accounts, then
    Select manage another account. In the list, select the administrator account
    your select and then delete the account, then it will ask you if you want to keep
    files etc, it's your own decision. Itknowledge24.com

  • How can I activate images on the DVD in video file so that I can edit and send to people?

    Hello.  I recently transferred footage tape VCR to a gathering on a DVD of family.  How can I activate images on the DVD in video file so that I can edit and send to people?

    Any help would be appreciated, as I was chasing my tail for about an hour and a half now.

    Thank you!

    When you insert the DVD in your DVD player... close
    all the windows that can open and then go to... Start /.
    Computer... right click the icon for the DVD player
    is in, and then select or open Explorer.

    The files you need from the DVD are the. VOB files.
    You will find them in the VIDEO_TS folder. Copy them
    in a folder on your hard drive. Or you can copy the
    full VIDEO_TS folder.

    First... just try to rename one of the. VOB files to
    . MPG or. AVI and see if it will matter in Movie Maker.
    If import works... drag the file to the timeline and
    Economy/publication it to .wmv or .avi format. Then...
    Re - import new video film for editing purposes.
    (if you have Vista Home Premium or Ultimate, you)
    may be able to import the VOB files in Movie Maker
    as they are)

    (FWIW... you can probably play the files renamed
    in Windows Media Player to be sure that VOB
    file to edit)

    If you are unable to import the files they need to be converted
    another .wmv format would be a good choice.

    There are many programs that can do conversions...
    The following freeware is an example...:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
    (the 'direct link' is faster)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the last screen)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag FFSetup260.exe out of the folder
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    Next, after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

    Select "all to WMV" / OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

    Good luck...
