Choosing a color problem Color Library (Photoshop)

In Photoshop: How do you get the color of in as your choice when the color library does not recognize the number that you type? Ex: I need green Pantone 2290 but recognition stops at 229, which is a magenta color. How do you get around that? Similar problems with colors that are names and not numbers (medium blue).

2290 C is for example Pantone + Solid Coated V2 library, which can be installed in the libraries of colors in Photoshop and will respond to the keystrokes 2-2-9-0, which is Lab 81 74 - 34

Here is a great web resource for finding numbers of Pantone colors and color names:

Pantone colors. Convert Pantone colors to RAL, CMYK, RGB, Hex, TSL, TSL, JSON

It's a kludge because you must copy and paste values in the selector.

Now for Pantone libraries:

So, how do you get the latest Pantone libraries in Adobe products?

You will need the Pantone Color Manager software. It will export libraries last Pantone for Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Corel Painter using sRGB or values Lab, your choice.

Download it here: Software Pantone Color Manager through the integration of the library

I think that if you register your fan bridges, it is free, if not 49.95 USD

Hope to see you there, happens

  • Hue Saturation in Photoshop - how to choose the color of the library or the color selector please?

    Hello

    I'm new to photoshop and I'm trying to change the background color.

    I clicked on the menu, "select", then "color range", "overview of the selection" gray scale selected, then clicked OK, this has highlighted the sections I wanted to change the color of black.

    I then went to the "Layer" menu then "new adjustment layer" then "hue/saturation" where I could use the slider to change the color, but I would like to change the color of a color in my library (my colors brand) or at least use a color picker to choose these colors or enter a hexadecimal value.

    Some help would be greatly appreciated, I can't find anything online to help.

    Thank you

    JO

    If you start a new file, the easiest way is to choose the background color immediately:

    I chose the background color, and you can type in the hexadecimal code. You can even save this preset.

    For a file existing, presupposed the background layer has a different solid color: change the background layer to a regular layer (must be unlocked, changing the shade of foreground (you can use the color picker), use select all to select the entire layer and use the paint bucket to fill with the foreground color.)

  • After you have installed the latest Pantone color library in photoshop, some colors are inaccessible

    I try to refer to a specific Pantone color in Photoshop. I want to use the color library browser, so that I can easily get an overview of my chosen color variants. The color, I'm working with is not available in the original Pantone Coated color book provided with my version of Photoshop. So I downloaded and installed the Pantone color Manager and checked the color I want IS identified in the book lying in the Pantone color Manager. Great! I saved the book of color as a .acb file and installed in Photoshop. But I can not yet select some colors. They exist in Pantone color Manager, but they are not searchable from within Photoshop. Very strange!

    Here are the steps I followed to bring the book of the color in Photoshop:

    1. launch Pantone Color Manager

    2. Select the formula Guide - coated color book

    3. perform a search for "2128" and ensure that color exists.

    4. choose Save as... and save the file with a .acb (Adobe color book) file. I named it "PANTONE + Solid Coated - V3.acb.

    5. exit Photoshop

    6 copy the book of color in books color file in Photoshop (/ Applications / Adobe Photoshop CC 2015/Presets/color books).

    7. start Photoshop.

    8. open the color picker and click the button "color libraries".

    9. choose my new book of color in the menu ("PANTONE + Solid Coated-V3')

    10 type '2128': not found (Photoshop shows me 212c instead).

    I scrolled the book color in Photoshop - color isn't here!

    What I am doing wrong?

    You want to export the color book. Then it must meet 2-1-2-8 in the Photoshop color picker and I would choose Lab as the color model during export.

  • Hi there I can not choose colors in photoshop. He let me just use grey and Pentecost. someone at - he had that before?

    Hi all

    IM new to Photoshop, but did a few things with him.

    I have a problem at the point where I can not choose what color I would like to use in photoshop. I can only use gray and white.

    Any help would be great.

    JJMack is right. Most of the time this happens when you have a channel, or a selected layer mask, not a pixel layer. Open the channels Panel to see exactly what is active. The RGB channel at the top should be active. It is, you can choose colors beyond black and white. If you are on an adjustment layer, you implement a layer with pixels.

  • Choose a color space in LR CC

    There was once an option to choose/set color in Lightroom with the choice of ProRGB, Adobe RGB, sRGB space as there are PS/Bridge. As I have used Adobe RGB as baseline - camera photo/computer and lab - it's a serious problem, given the develop module in LR using Pro RGB, which does not translate to Photoshop at all without color changes.

    And given that there is no parameter to define a color space "for the moment" by the remarks on the LR FAQ, is there a time for when this critical element will be available?

    pjoye wrote:

    I have white balance adjustments in the LR library and fine tuned develop them. I refined with a cool filter in PS, but when I saw their new in LR, they do not have the same appearance.

    That could happen if you have a preset in the import or the auto tone in Lightroom.

    Other than that, any difference between Lightroom and Photoshop indicates a broken monitor profile.

    ProPhotoRGB has nothing to do with it. You are looking in the wrong place.

  • How do you choose the color of the exterior of the Illustrator?

    Hey, no one knows what happened to the color picker in Illustrator? In Photoshop, you can sample a color from anywhere outside the window of the application by clicking and dragging with the eyedropper tool. I know you used to be able to do as in Illustrator, but now it doesn't seem to work. I tried Googling the answer, but all I get are about a hundred people showing how to do it in 2012, 2013. Nothing more recent than that which leads me to believe they have much changed something in a recent version of the AI. Don't know how to do it now. Basically, what I need to know is, How do you choose the color of the exterior of the Illustrator these days? I have the latest version - IA CC 2015.3 I think.

    Thank you very much!

    My guess is Yes. I'm on a Mac, but test everything that does not work for you, and it works very well, including the colors of the windows of the browser and my wallpaper.

    I booted up my (Win 10) Surface and get the same results that you describe. It could be a limitation of Windows or a bug, but whether you can report it here: feature request/Bug Report Form.

  • Since I installed Windows 10 to color in Photoshop will not. Any thoughts?

    After you have installed Windows 10, color in Photoshop is false. Black and white look of the sepia photos and color are much too hot. I messed around with the settings with no luck. I am a user of PC using Photoshop CS5.

    Windows 10 is known to replace the monitor with the profile of a builder profile, and they are notoriously low quality / useless.

    As a temporary measure, you can assign the sRGB profile, which should solve the problem.

    But the real solution is to calibrate the monitor with a standard material.

    Press the Windows key + R, enter colorcpl in the text field and press ENTER, then set sRGB profile by default - see screenshot below.

  • Change of color CC Photoshop and lightroom

    Hello

    Thus, this issue was repeatedly, but I just can´t understand, why this is happening.

    My workflow:

    Change in Lightroom, export when im done with the image, when nothing else is needed. I export in SRGB. The image looks great on the screen, when using Irfan View and viewer of windows, with colors, correct, as they are in the lightroom interface. Great everything´s here!

    But lets say, I want to make a few additional changes - this is where things go wrong.

    I m always in lightroom. I right click on the image and chose to change in photoshop cc.

    The photo opens, looks exactly like the version of lightroom. I apply changes and save them as a JPG. I ve tried recording in SRGB and Adobe RGB format. When I view the image of Irfan view, the look 'flat, ish and dull. " Now, I think I did something wrong, here's what I ve tried:

    Export to jpg from Lightroom, using SRGB.

    Save the same exact file (open in Photoshop via Lightrrom, don't edit and save as jpg, also making sure that it s to SRGB)

    Now I have 2 identical JPG files. But when I open in Viewer Irfan view or windows, the photoshop file seems dull and ish, while editing in lightroom seems perfect. The same thing happens when I print photos in my local photoshop - lightroom printing looks perfect, the Photoshop file doesn´t.

    When in photoshop, I check the 'view - color proof' image in my PS interface also looks like ish

    I ve tried everything and at this stage I Don t even like to use Photoshop more, because I think it destroys my JPG files. (Which in turn means, that there must be a setting I can change to make it work)

    I ve attached a shot showing the 2 files next to screen.

    screenshot.png

    Help, please!

    You have the profile of ProPhoto color image in Photoshop. That's how it comes to Lightroom with the default settings (you can change that in Lr preferences).

    Check you convert them to sRGB in Photoshop before the record on. Everything here indicates that you do not. If you use save for Web, you must check the "convert to sRGB" and "embed the profile.

    What is absolutely certain, it's that the right version looks exactly like an image ProPhoto read without color management. Proofing RGB turns off the management of color in Photoshop, so that shows you the same thing.
