Color management - Indesign with images PS calibrated?

How to:

In PS CMYK color space looks great with laser printer. Printer and the monitor are calibrated - so what you see is what you get - but only in PS.

When images are imported into Indesign or or convert to PDF the colors are awful, dirty, with a cast.

What is the best way to preserve the color when using images in different design software.

Color space replace even if is all printed on the same laser CMYK printer.

Any help would be great. Thank you.

If the space of CMYK in Photoshop is correct:

1. open the InDesign document.

2 edit: assign profile. By CMYK, select the profile with images from Photoshop. Note: when you do this, if you have any native InDesign CMYK swatch, the color that can change their appearance, but CMYK values are kept (usually the goal sought for generations of CMYK color).

3 window: exit: overview of separations. Images must match the color you see in Photoshop.

4 file: export: PDF. Use a PDF / X standard (such as PDF/X-4). By production, the output intent profile should be document CMYK.

5. open the PDF file in Acrobat. Advanced: Print: Preview the output. Images must match the color you see in Photoshop.

EDIT: for step 1, the verification of the images, Edit profile: assign the profile in Photoshop. But just to check, do not change.

  • Color management in PS and monitor calibration

    I calibrated my colors of monitors with a colorimeter Eye One Display 2 and for photoshop, I attributed the monitors that he created the color profile to the work area (Edition > assign profile).
    But for photography I take pictures with the color profile setting AdobeRGB on my camera... should I use this instead of that color profile when working on photos in PS? They look a bit washed out. I guess I should continue to use my profile of monitors calibrated instead?

    And photos save a jpg for the web, should I check "ICC profile" box that lists my monitors color profile when registering? Because I noticed that now some browsers began to support ICC profiles. So in Firefox 4 BETA for example, if I do not use the ICC profile setting the colors look washed on other monitors.
    (Note that the ICC profile for jpg setting is available in file > save under... If I go to file > save for Web and devices there embed the color profile that is basically the same thing).

    I was confused in the same way and some time ago I asked a similar question here, but now I think I understand better and will try to explain. I'd appreciate also correction or a confirmation of those who understand this.

    Photoshop like all other color management programs, knows how the monitor displays colors of the color profile that is installed in the system.

    When you use an image with an embedded profile, Photoshop converts the properly display (not the actual numbers) of color values so that the planned colors are displayed as accurately as possible.

    The profiles selected for workstations in the color settings will be affected only in the following situations:

    • When you create a new image, given that it is not replaced in the new options window dialog
    • When in the color settings color management policies are set to perform the conversion of workspace - this will convert the actual number of color values
    • When you choose not to handle colors in the profile attribute in the Edit menu - this will change the display as if the image was created with the current working space profile, will not change the number of color values.

    If an image is with the same color in the system monitor profile then there is no color management past up to the conversion or Proofing color with a different profile.

    It is recommended to work in a popular as sRGB or AdobeRGB color space, because the color management wise when the images are intended to be affixed to the devices and various monitors and more common ground as sRGB is used as a reference instead of a particular monitor color space.

  • Need help with LR color management

    Hi, well having had about to master the basics of the LR (point 6.1.1) I am happy that I can now treat my image editing, using a combination of Photoshop/plug-ins LR and LR.

    But I'm not about printing. I installed my new Asus monitor today and after a few hours, that it is fixed; If I take a picture of LR and select "Edit with PSE13" and print from PSE the printed output matches against what I see in LR just about perfectly.

    But if I try to print the image live LR is a mess; black out as a blue greenish, or who are green, bluish, and the whole image seems, well just psychedelic.

    I spent hours on it and as far as I can see the print settings in LR and PES look exactly the same. One thing to add; I print on HP Advanced glossy. In LR so I select that paper it will come out a mess, but if I select plain paper it out OK.

    I installed a .icm for Asus monitor file and I put the sRGB mode.

    In LR, I defined as «managed by the printer» color management

    With the HP printer, well it's not quite like the old days, it seems more automated. Under color management, I chose "ColorSmart/sRGB" which is recommended in the manual.

    Windows color management, I chose Asus PA248.icm for the color profile and sRGB Color Space Profile.icm (sRGB IEC 61966 - 2.1) for the printer.

    Anyone has any ideas on what I might be missing / doing wrong?

    Well, I seem to have gotten almost there now. In EPS, I had always managed by the printer color management. The answer in LR seems LR6 handle color management. I now have a good impression. The color match isn't quite right, with the colors on the impression of being a little more clear/more deep, but I'm sure that if I play with sliders to print setting I will get there. Although once I get the Epson printer with its profiles of specific documents, it may very well be right anyway.

  • Neophyte color management problems

    Neophyte color management problem:

    Image rendered PS colors do not match monitor or images rendered with other applications.

    Recall facts: using MacBook Pro retina with NVIDIA GeForce GT M 750 (calibrated in sRGB with ColorMunki Display software), OSX 10.95, PS CS5 and new external NEC PA272 (material calibrated to native with calibrator Spectraview II & NEC gamut) connected with the mini-displayport cable. Although slightly different due to different Mac and NEC display gammuts, a sample JPEG on Mac seems somewhat near NEC as desktop BG on respective monitors images and seen with the OSX Preview app on a monitor. AND the same image in PS when the image PS window is MOVED to NEC, is STILL, UNTIL the mouse is released. Then the image in the PS on NEC image window moves with a glance off the coast of colors. I am aware that the Mac display is sRGB and the NEC a range wide screen, and that this image of the example is a JPEG to sRGB, but I wanted an image that would be displayed on two monitors, with different applications, including the Psalm but it's the same thing when the main PSD used to create the JPEG format is loaded in PS then MOVED over to the NEC. Tried to play with management PS colors and corresponding attempt to different

    Profiles, but no luck. Tried the General searches on Google, but I'm lost. Any suggestions where to start to fix this problem? Thank you!

    The standard behavior in a multi-screen configuration is that Photoshop uses other operating system display profile offers upward so that the display - up to what the image window crosses the line to halfway between them. Then he goes to use the other profile.

    The shift-on-drop thing indicates a video card problem. That's how OpenGL works in Photoshop, when you drag an OpenGL image is temporarily suspended, and then snaps back on when you file.

    So I would try to disable the GPU in the PS preferences or set it to the basic mode. This shifts all display color to the CPU. Then wait for the next update of video driver from Apple.

  • Print without CS4 + Snow Leopard broken color management

    I saw some comments in this forum about the printing problems with CS4, but didn't they would apply to me. They do, a lot of time.

    I print on an Epson 9800, convert the image to the Epson profile for that paper and then print using no color management. With CS4 + Mac OS 10.6, the colors are completely extinguished, and the unusable results and I couldn't solve by printing instead of CS3. I finally ended up installing 10.5 on a new partition, deactivate CS3 on 10.6 partition and installing on 10.5 partition (because the license Adobe treats the same program running on the same computer with different startup only two partitions different 'facilities'!) and then actually go back a generation in the printer drivers. Basically, this revives my computer because it was in 2007, and I can now print perfectly. I don't know if the latest printer drivers introduce problems or not and am tired of test print images.

    Of course, this means I edit the photo in 10.6 + CS4, then reboot to 10.5, print in CS3, then restart in 10.6. And of course I can't use CS4 for printing from CS3. Very frustrating.

    My questions are: (1) is there a document from Adobe that addresses this problem, (2) is Adobe aware of this problem, and (3) are there any other workaround who know other than to go back to CS3 + OS 10.5?

    A

    (1) No.  We always try to understand what's broken with Snow Leopard (since our code has not changed).

    (2) Yes, and we work closely with Apple and some suppliers of the printer to get the mess cleaned up.

    (3) some people have had luck with installing older drivers for MacOS 10.5, and others have not (depends on the model).

  • Problem with color, too saturated exported images management

    Hello

    I have an image in Photoshop (CS5, Windows 7) that I wanted to export to PDF and print it, but then I noticed the colours varied considerably making the result unusable.

    The image is composed in AdobeRGB and I work on a wide range of screen (Dell U2711) I calibrated and profiled with a Spyder4.

    In Photoshop, the image contains a beautiful dull light brown but when I open the PSD in Illustator or InDesign or when I export it as a PDF and view it in Acrobat, it is much too red in it. I enclose below an example of how the colors look like in Photoshop (left) and the rest of the system (right):

    wrong-colors.jpg

    (Note: this is a JPEG AdobeRGB, so the consultation on a normal range screen might not show as much difference that it is actually)

    This color shift is very extreme, and I don't know what the cause of the problems. I tried different profiles for my monitor (the only one I created with the Spyder, the profile of the Dell factory, the standard profile from AdobeRGB, no profile at all etc..). While the color has obviously changed a bit the problem as a whole has not changed: Photoshop shows the beautiful yellow brown, other applications show a very reddish image. The difference is even noticeable quite highly on my second monitor which is just a normal range of the screen with a range of about 73% of the sRGB colors.

    I also tried to export to a flat JPEG with no embedded profile that makes the result a little better, but the colors are still not accurate at all. It's very confusing because I don't know what the problem is and I don't know if it's just Photoshop the wrong colors or if other applications just to bad color management.

    It would be great if you could help me out here.

    Thank you.

    P.S. this problem could be linked to this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4178572#4178572 Although I couldn't find a working solution there.

    P.P.S. opening the image/PDF exported in Photoshop, product colors you want, once again, is not a weird conversion causing issues.

    If it is not the right profile, there would be at least two independent yet more fake profiles that I spend in assinging profiles of good and evil. I doubt it. I'm sure that Windows and Photoshop use the right profiles. Both monitors independently change when assinging different profiles and colors in Photoshop always will change accordingly.

    Applications that do not seem to choose the right profile are Illustrator, InDesign and Acrobat. When I do the primary external monitor they display the colors correctly. But as soon as I do the laptop monitor the main display colors aren't yet.

    So I guess that Windows and Photoshop are doing everything right, but Illustrator, InDesign and Acrobat use only the profile of the main screen. So on the range wide screen it is obviously all saturated (especially in red). However, when I put my main screen what they use it for both profile that specifies the range widescreen on the big screen and also quite accurate colours on the internal monitor because it's the color range is much smaller.

    I declare this a bug in these applications.

  • How to have different color profiles on screens cloned with color management

    Hello

    I have calibrated two monitors (in fact, one is a standard monitor and the other is a projector that is connected to my computer) using the third-party program. I'm so done with ICC profiles two different, one for my monitor and the other for my image to the projector.

    These two are connected to a card double head (Quadro 4000).

    I am able to use my two different color ICC profiles with an extented of office using the color management settings in Win7 without problem. I can't disable them without problem also.

    But I can't do it with a clone view (dual display). Even if I am able to select two different profiles for each of them in windows color management settings. Alone can apply for each of them. In fact, when I'm in an office clone, even when I tried to deactivate the profile of each color, nothing changed. Color management doesn't seem to update more as soon as I'm in a clone desktop mode.

    Anyone know if there is a way to apply TWO different colors on monitors CLONED profiles? In my case, I can not use extended desktop and I really need to apply the calibration profile two different.

    Thank you very much!

  • What's up with the bridge color management?

    After obtaining a range wide screen (Eizo S2243W), it was a pleasure to be able to see the Adobe RGB colors that I knew were in the file, but previously could not be displayed. Although the Windows desktop and interface elements user sounds loud, I got used to that.

    ID, PS, AI, everything works perfectly. But I discovered that the bridge does not follow suit. The funny is that it shows the mute, standard version for 'gamut' - saturated not as one would expect with a range wide screen and non-functional color management (if this is the case). The only reasonable explanation for what I see is that the document profile is converted to sRGB. I can't reproduce otherwise.

    I'm no stranger to the color of help desk management, and according to my experience, the prime suspect in this case is still the monitor profile. So I've done several things to validate the profile. I recalibrated using the calibrator Eizo grouped with its EX1 (actually just a renamed Spyder3) sensor, and I recalibrated using color eyes Display Pro with another probe Spyder3. I also tried with Adobe RGB as the monitor profile just for troubleshooting.

    In all cases, I checked in the color settings PS that the profile has been actually used, and in any case, the effect of muting still shows in Bridge. Now, I am sure that PS/ID/HAVE rendering is indeed good. Suite color management is synchronized, using Adobe RGB as RGB working space.

    I have also purged caches of bridge in every way I can think and then reset the preferences of Bridge by ctrl-launch and control of the confirmation dialog box.

    The screenshots of the following two require a color managed browser and a range wide screen, since the difference is outside the sRGB gamut. The first used Adobe RGB as a monitor profile and a Adobe Integrated RGB, the second has the Eizo monitor profile assigned and integrated. They are similar, but the other should show exactly as I see it (click to view the display not set cache, the difference does not directly show in Firefox):

    test adobeRGB.jpg

    test monitor RGB.jpg

    Any ideas what is happening here?

    (Also published in the forum for color management)

    Sorry, that was a little short.

    Bridge poster of the images based on the pre-rendered JPEG files that it stores in its memory cache. It's thumbnails, larger and sometimes 100% previews previews. When creating these JPEG files, it uses made color Relative to the color space sRGB. However, it is usually * displays them correctly, based on the primary poster color profile.

  • InDesign CS5 color management policies

    Hi all

    I just had a look at Indesign CS5 color management policies...

    Can someone clarify the following for me?

    From my tests, it looks like

    (1) when the embedded icc profile place an image in an indesign page is ignored and the "profile document' is used, unless it is activated manually by the user in any event (show import options) or (object > Image color Settings). This is despite the fact that the color settings are defined to preserve embedded profiles.

    (2.) by placing an image in an indesign page grayscale profiles are also ignored and and images of mono are simply located in a color space "grey" with no way to assign a particular profile or keep a profile embedded etc. This is despite the fact that the color settings are defined to preserve embedded profiles.

    (3.) by placing an image in an indesign page, there is also no way to manage the color of the illustrator files. Embedded profiles are ignored in the files have. This is despite the fact that the color settings are defined to preserve embedded profiles.

    looks like a bug to me...

    I'm currently under indesign 7.0 on Mac OS 10.6.7

    FYI,.

    Upgrade to 7.04 and then by copying and pasting the page layout in a new indesign document before restoring the files links corrected problems...

  • "Color management" don't keep calibration on reboot

    I was recently a pretty annoying problem with the "color management" settings found in the control panel.

    The problem is very simple, yet confusing at the same time. Whenever I start my computer, the login look perfect screen, the Blues and the Greens look not at power off. I connect to my computer and everything seems fine until a few seconds after starting, a "switch" how it turns and everything gets a yellow-ish tint. In order to correct this problem I have to load the control panel and access the setting menu "color management" and press Advanced, then click on "calibrate" and then on the 'color standard of exhibition' is launched. This is where the problem becomes very weird because I don't have to go through the dialog boxes to remove the yellow tint. All I have to do the "Stallion of the color of the display" is click Cancel, which means that I won't actually through Pentecost of the calibration. But, low and behold when I press cancel everything seems perfect (just like the login screen).

    It is worth noting that I am in the classic windows theme. I am not prepared to change that because blurry transparency is more aggravating than the yellow colors. Also, I have not upgraded to xp and rather stuck with the old windows 2000 if I prefer to keep the old look.

    Now, I have installed no other color management, I don't want any other color managers, in fact I didn't know that "managers of colours" not really existed. I thought that all this was done by the monitor commands themselves... but apparently these days, there is always "an app for that."

    I am currently running windows 7 Home on an ASUS U47VC (http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/U47VC/). I connect via an HDMI cable on my monitor. I turned off the laptop screen using only the utilities Windows ('screen resolution').

    Things I've tried:
    (1) delete each color profile, that I could find.
    (2) again a "calibrated" profile and set it as default value.
    (3) "coupled my settings" what ever that is supposed to mean.

    A possible solution would obviously change the monitor color settings (which means fiddling around with the physical buttons on my monitor) to counterbalance the yellow. However, I can't do this for two reasons:

    (1) I can never get this right. I spent a lot of time trying to get it exactly, but the threshold of my monitors color settings do not work
    (2) I dual boot Linux (where no problem color monitor). So I have to redo all the settings on my screen color whenever I booted to windows. Something that is worse than clicking a few buttons

    To forestall the obvious questions:
    YES I UPDATED MY DRIVERS
    YES I UPDATED TO WINDOWS
    YES, I PRIVALGES ADMIN
    YES I RESTARTED THE COMPUTER

    Thank you in advance!

    I solved the problem!

    The solution was to create a new user account. In the new account is no longer the problem. There must be a kind of corruption of setting in the old account.

    Thank you for your help.

    GHK

    You don't want or need to use the old setting 'No Color Management'. Is no longer the right way to print with a custom printer profile, in the current versions of Photoshop and OS X.

    To use a custom profile to print, use the attached picture settings:

    • In the print dialog box, set the Photoshop color management menu manages colors.
    • Select your profile to the printer in the printer profile menu.
    • In the settings of printer driver Epson (under Printer Setup button) make sure that the Epson printer driver is set to the color - off management.

    I don't know why Adobe Color Printer Utility works in 10.11.3, because I can throw on OS X 10.10 and 10.11. But in the end, it doesn't matter, because you don't want to use it for this purpose Adobe Color Printer Utility is only to print a profiling target, no images. And it won't let you print using your custom printer profile, because the whole point of the utility is to print with no discoloration whatsoever.

  • How to print with no. COLOR MANAGEMENT in Photoshop CS6

    Hello

    I tried to print an i1Profiler target so I can read with my i1Pro and create a profile of the printer, but no matter what I do, there is no way to get photoshop to provide a profile when printing. I tried to select printer handles color and then put the printer driver in the MANAGEMENT of OFF COLOR (seemed to me this would disable both the printer color management and color management photosbop). Tried to print this way (and many other ways) but NO SOLUTION - the impressions are VERY different from the on-screen display (which is in a correctly profiled Apple monitor) and they did resemble those with a selected profile.

    I also tried the Adobe Color Printer Utility Utility and same results!

    I use an EPSON Stylus Pro 7900 I just bought.

    The key here is to really actually go ahead and print the target of i1Profiler to your printer... in the graphical Test Panel, create the staff and click on print instead of Save as. As long as you have the size of the page defined in the layout, you should get a target Specifies printer to read. According to the patches how you have defined, this may take a few pages, but they will be correctly formatted for playback with the i1Pro...
