colors look fine in photoshop but poor in windows Viewer?

This problem is about how the colors in my images appear different once I processed them through Lr and PS. This happens both on my screen and my tablet.

When I import images from an sd camera card in Lr, the colors look quite good on my monitor.  Almost the same as when I import images live map through the windows and discovered through the windows Viewer

When I export the image of the Lr to Ps colors look always good.

When I flatten the layers and save as a jpeg file they look always good in Ps, but when I leave the Ps and I discovered the image stored in the windows Viewer the colors look washed out and more cold.

Can you help me with this?

Here's the thing, chris: most of the applications (web browsers, file browser, image viewers) consumer-oriented have or not support color management. To display correctly in these applications, the files must be in the sRGB color space, because most of the monitors are already quite close to sRGB natively. In this way, the file can be given directly to the screen and pretty much right display. It is the standard 'infallible' mode.

But exports of default Lightroom in ProPhoto, a much larger space synthetic color that contains many more colors that can be displayed on the screen. To view correctly, this must be remapped in the color space of the monitor. Lightroom and Photoshop this automatically. It's the color management.

If you view a ProPhoto file in an application without color management, the result is a very drab and dull picture, far from what it is supposed to look like. That's what you see in your other file viewers. Same thing for Adobe RGB, only slightly less extreme.

Always convert to sRGB in Photoshop, or export to sRGB in Lightroom. Then they will display correctly in all applications that are not color management.

In Photoshop, use him edit > convert to profile option. Your workspace has no impact on this point, it's just a failure to rescue. BTW, the Elements option "optimize for computer screen" simply means that sRGB. That's what you get for dumbing down, there is no way to know what it really means.

  • Printing problem: colors print correctly from Photoshop but swept away in Illustrator

    I have problems printing in Illustrator.  The same image... to be cut and glued, opened in, or by using the created... sample prints differently in Photoshop and Illustrator.  I need to use this specific color (brand), and it prints fine in Photoshop but washed out and ish in illustrator.

    I made sure that the color settings are the same (the bridge) and made sure all of the print settings are the same.  It is the same color on the screen and in detail, but the impression is significantly different.  Any help please?

    Uncheck perserv CMYK.

    Chances are the document photoshop's RGB and you no doubt you you document RGB as well for proofing.

    Better yet probably should do all the conversion and have a consistent color of flow management work.

    It is to convert your images to CMYK in photoshop work in photoshop as CMYK etc or if documents that not the case then do everything in RGB, including your Illustrator color space.

  • Banner logo looks fine in FF but not in IE

    Hi, not sure if the fix is for this but the model on this site is fine in FF, but the logo is out of position in Internet Explorer. I'm not sure whether a correction of css or something IE rule.

    Thank you

    You have a few errors in your html code. They "should not" cause no problem, but you must clean them anyway. Run your page through the validator here:http://validator.w3.org for the list.

    I am betting that your IE has a width smaller than Firefox window?

    Your logo bursts the container

    on narrow windows. What do you see?

    EDIT: If this is the problem you see, it can be fixed pretty easily. Without changing anything else, adding a min-width for your div #container should fix. In your css AC file, change...

    #container {}

    margin: 15px 60px banner automatic;

    Width: 60%;

    padding: 10px;

    background-color: #000000;

    color: #ffffff;

    border: 1px solid #ffffff;

    }

  • Vector PDF looks fine in drive but not in Illustrator

    I use a software engineering (surfer) to generate a map of contours of the United States showing the solar radiation.  The graphics people asked me to give them a vector image which could be changed in Illustrator, so I created a vector PDF.  The image looks fine in the free Adobe Reader, but some of the edges are not visible in Illustrator.  Someone has a similar problem?  Should I change some settings in Illustrator?

    Your paths include a large number of anchor points, and I suppose that you exceed the limits of the Illustrator.

    Your "simplified" file contains 659 roads a total of 292 527 points.

    Are there settings in your engineering program that would create more simple paths?

  • EP 14 - menus DVD look at grain-y and poor quality even if the content of actual film seems well

    First Elements 14 - FILM and DVD MENU BURNING

    QUESTION #1: HELP!   I spent days and days trying to figure out why the DVD menus look so grain-y and poor quality even if the content of actual film seems well. I upgraded from 12 to 14 items first thinking that would improve the quality, but no luck.  I made my film with many segments video, titles, etc., fading in and out of the extra audio tracks. It all works very well.

    Then, when I select the Menu move and there the process... and the result... is simply unacceptable. I chose the "Pan and Zoom" model, even if I wanted to use my own background for the main Menu and the following menus images, because it was the only model with 6 thumbnails per page. I downloaded many sizes of different files and resolutions of my background images, thinking that this one would work.  I even found the original "Pan and Zoom". Model PSD files on my hard drive and checked the length of number of pixel and width, more inches in length and width, more DPI.

    Each of my own images (including one I formatted the exact size of the model "Pan and Zoom") looks a lot like pixelated, when I preview the movie... or actually make a DVD in first of 12 elements.  In the first 14 elements, burn a DVD does not even operate.  The disc resulting is not playable on any of my computers or DVD players.  It comes to my QUESTION #2.

    Is it possible to download a few screenshots to help you see what my poor quality menus looks like compared to the high quality film?

    I don't know what is happening with your DVD writer. It could be material, may be a driver, could be another program maintaining Premiere Elements to it. (Nero is famous for this).

    But if your DVD is burning as a file on your hard drive, then the program has done what it can. And you can easily use a free software called ImgBurn to burn DVD files to a disc. (As I noted in my books, this is the way I and a number of other publishers prefer to work for a number of reasons.)

    The program creates a VIDEO_TS folder on your D drive or if she has created an ISO file?
