• Changing in indesign CMYK color value

  Hello

  I created a logo in Illustrator cs4 with the CMYK value 85% 45% 0% 10% when I place the AI logo file in indesign and use the pipette to check color, it returns 87.06 50.98% 5.49% 0%. Both applications are set to the same color through bridge settings. The strange thing is, codes two colors seems to be identical to the screen and on paper. Miss me probably a fundamental idea, but Im fairly new to graphics design, so any idea why color value changes, would be appreciated.

  To simplify:

  You must use the Eyedropper to sample colors, text, and objects created in InDesign, all placed graphics are just miniature rgb from the original to serve as layout. The original image and the colors are used on printing and exporting.

  You can export colors in the swatches Panel menu in Illustrator and save the file as an .ase and load these swatches from indesign using the fly to swatch Panel there.

  Transfer not degraded.

  The other way is to copy and paste illustrator objects in indesign and delete the copy and paste job. The color chart will transfer with gradients.

• The color values to Excel export

• Place images in Illustrator changes their color values - why?

  I've been put photoshop tiff files in Illustrator, and this seems to change the color values, when I sample with the eyedropper tool. The images that I did use a custom mix of intense Black of CMYK, with the K value of 100. In Illustrator, they seem to go back to the default "black Photoshop' value, about C75 M68 Y67 K90. It is not my intention to C70 M60 Y58 K100. The Illustrator document's CMYK mode, and I don't know why this is happening. No graphic elements (vectors) in my illustrator file retain the color values, I intended, however.

  Is this some kind of framework that I can change in Illustrator? This gap will be displayed when this file goes to print? Help, please! Thank you.

  When the image is not embedded, Illustrator samples the values of representation. Those that are managed by color management.

• Work in CMYK color mode

  Hello

  I am trying to better understand how to use Illustrator to print correctly and my biggest hurdle is to understand how o use the colors correctly.

  I've done several tutorials and just need to clarify just to ensure that I understand them and I have do this process correctly.

  Issues related to the:

  1. I have read that it is possible to use RGB colors with CMYK to print and I sometimes see RGB color mixed with the CMYK colors in my color chart. Is it okay to use RGB to CMYK as my understanding RGB is to screen only?

  2 - is the right way to apply a CMYK color to work in Illustrator?

  

  3. I'm picking nuances using the guide in color in illustrator and when I double click on the individual color chart this screen with the little cube. I did some reading on this and there are sources saying that this has something to do with RGB modes? Still, leads me to believe that I do not apply color properly in illustrator. Here is the image:

  

  Would be really grateful for help with these issues, it will let me continue work knowing that my work is done in a good way before you start. It would be also nice to have suggestions or advice on the workflow.

  hope to hear about it.

  An Illustrator file is RGB or CMYK. The nuances that are the same color as the file mode a.

  You can set the color using different color modes, but when you click OK, the color is converted to the current document's color mode. It will change, and the numbers do not come back. The conversion is based on your color management settings.

  Some printers support the RGB files - it depends on the printing process and the machines they use. Print large format is often made with RGB files. As are some digital printing processes. Ask the print service provider about this.

• Change all the names of Swatch "Name with color value"?

  Y at - it a Javascript command change the nuances in a document to the "Name with color value" box in the Swatch Options? I know there are scripts to change the names of swatch based on the value of the color, but I'm looking for a script that applies this specific to all checkbox.

  Thanks in advance!

  This should do it:

  (function(){
    var doc=app.activeDocument,
    sw=doc.swatches.everyItem().getElements(),
    c;
    for(var i=3; i			 
  (1) under the Production of printing tools, in the right pane, you will find the convert colors tool. That's what you're looking for. Its availability has nothing to do with what type of device you send the PDF file.
  (2) that said, converting the PDF to CMYK color space is not necessarily required to print. You certainly can print an RGB and/or the PDF to grayscale for a local or network PostScript laser printer, for example. What makes you think that you absolutely need CMYK for printing any other type? Each RIP/DFE these days can directly manipulate the RGB content.

• How to export a file with a CMYK color profile in Lightroom?

  I try to save a picture with a CMYK color profile to send to a company that will print for me. I looked at the color profiles installed on my computer, and a certain CMYK profiles seem to be there (in/Library/Application Support / Adobe / Color / Profiles / recommended). I don't know if they should be expressly in the folder "Profiles", or if it is important that they are in a subfolder of that folder. This is on a Mac, by the way.

  The problem is, when I go to export in Lightroom, and I chose 'Other' in the color profile, I gives me any options of CMYK.

  Thanks for your help!

  Ray

  Sorry... you can't. LR does not CMYK, RGB only... you will need to Photoshop or some other app.

• What is the best way to match the Pantone PMS to CMYK color swatches?

  I am looking at colors Pantone swatch book for coated solid colors, but he should know that the best way is to match, as closely as possible, a tone direct Pantone CMYK color. Is it possible to see these side by side? or is there an equivalency in the book of PMS, as I remember them to be in the print version of the Pantone book (which also showed formulations of ink for different tones,) which shows the percentages of CMYK equivalents to better match a Pantone color? It would be better to be able to see the place and the CMYK colors side by side on the screen.

  It would be better to be able to see the place and the CMYK colors side by side on the screen.

  N ° it would be preferable to see the task ink and CMYK process inks-by-side on paper.

  It's why printed swatch books exist. I don't like what type of monitor you have, it won't look like a spot color ink. Period.

  Glow of monitors. Ink on paper doesn't work. The human eye is incredibly adjustable; So really can't trust your own eyes when you look at a monitor.

  Any monitor you use, it's always show you RGB. He can't do CMYK, and of course, he can't spot color.

  So when the game is so dang critical, you must have a hand book of shade printed Pantone and process printed swatch book. And the two swatch books are on a similar document.

  And if you expect to find perfect matches, you need to understand something very basic: many spot inks have no exact match to CMYK. You have to make Judgment calls.

• RGB color values change when I create a PDF file in Indesign

  Hi I have a night Mare, please please please help me.

  I design a lot of websites in Indesign, export to PDF and then slice and dice the pdf in Pshop, while coding I'm going.

  I just upgraded to CS5 and seem to have a nightmare when I export my drawings in PDF format. When I open the PDF file in Acrobat or Pshop RGB color values are always different from what they were in Indesign (only subtly). I tried all the options and settings I can think when I make a PDF, but still the color values are different in the final PDF file.

  Why this keep happening, this settings, I have set before you make the PDF to ensure my RGB color values remain the same.

  I use Acrobat 7 Professional.

  Do not include the profiles. You have a problem of current color management (workspaces probably not synchronized). If there is no profile, the opeing application will ask what it is or take the current work profile, which is what you want, if the numbers must be preserved.
