How to convert RGB to CMYK images in batches
Hello
Can someone explain in a way step by step how to convert RGB to CMYK images batch?
Thanks in advance
If you do not want to use Photoshop for the conversion of bact there are several ways, including lots and Image Procesor under the file > controller or file > Scripts of PS.
However, my preference is to use the script from Russell Brown: Image Processor Pro, via the bridge:

Like other similar is transformative image:

Both allow you to make several conversions simultaneously, different sizes and file types and actions running before or after conversion.

Is it possible to convert RGB to CMYK images in Photoshop elements 12 or 6 Lighroom?
Hello
I am a freelance photographer, asked to produce images in CMYK mode to print. For the type of work that I normally do, Photoshop Elements is good enough. So, I bought not the full program of Photoshop. I can´t seem to find a way to convert my RGB to CMYK files. Someone at - it suggestions on how to do it?
Grateful for any help.
Kind regards
Anna
Elements has no CMYK support. You need the full Photoshop for this.
However - you have good CMYK profile for the real press and used paper. If they ask CMYK without specifying exactly what CMYK profile to use, it's a gift: they have no idea of what they are doing. So ask them that.
In any case, the common nowadays procedure is to present photography as RGB equipment, to be converted to CMYK destination on final export as PDF ready from the program layout (InDesign). This means that the images are placed as RGB in InDesign. In this way the material can be easily reused for press different conditions.
In other words, if they run a color managed properly the process. There are still some who don't.
CMYK standards vary around the world. The default value of Photoshop's us Web Coated (SWOP), which is not used anywhere outside America. Here in Europe the most commonly used are ISO Coated (ECI) 300% or Coated FOGRA39.

It is possilble to convert RGB to CMYK in PES 11?
My external printer uses CMYK only and when they convert my RGB to CMYK image, color printed is different then the color that I see on my screen. I searched the community for a similar question previously asked, but discussions gives me for PES 11. Thank you.
It is the same for all versions of PSE: No. Adobe is very strict on conservation that as one of the differences between PSE and Psalm you could ask your printing service if they do. They will generally, but at an extra cost. If you need to do this a lot you should consider the upgrade to CC.

Convert RGB to CMYK and RGB image
Hey.
I wonder if anyone has any experience with conversion of RGB to CMYK and RGB image?
I had a TIF in RGB, then convert to CMYK, but I thought it would be best to keep in RGB, so I converted. I read that he meant to cause losses in the data, but I don't see anything in the image, it's always very huge and 2 RGB files has the same size as well. Is there a way to compare the resolution of 2 images somehow, or how I can see what I've lost through 2 conversions?
Thanks for help

Data loss, you refer relates to the compromise made when appearing in RGB colors fall outside the range of available colors printing inks. In such a case, substitutions are made in the conversion of RGB to CMYK based on your choice of the Conversion Option > intent found in Edit > color settings. The good news is that if you don't see a color change when you switch from RGB to CMYK and vice versa, this means that none of the colors in RGB mode are outside of the range of CMYK ink. I suggest that intention more appropriate for the mode switches such as the one you mentioned Relative Colorimetry is the choice more practical.
When RGB, clicking Cmd + there will show a color change if the colors are outside the range of ink. Another signal is an exclamation point beside the CMYK numbers in the info panel. To see which areas of the image are affected by the limitation of printing ink, choose View > Gamut Warning.

Is it necessary to convert RGB to CMYK photos if you simply print at home?
I am new to the creative suite, and I use InDesign for a class presentation. I was told I should convert photoshop images I use RGB to CMYK for printing, but I'm just to the printing house on my little deskjet.
Second question: if it IS necessary, why make an alert in photoshop by saying 'you are about to convert to CMYK using the "U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2" profile. This can ve not what you intend. "What do that mean and do I just ignore it?
Thanks in advance for any advice you may have!
The advice you got was specifically for sending from a project to a CMYK printing press. Conversion to CMYK was the traditional requirement of these tasks, since the days when most of the images were printed and more printed images went to a CMYK press.
But it has been several years that it was true. Some InDesign workflow can use RGB images if configure you InDesign to convert to CMYK output, or if the digital press will do the conversion. Many House digital printers and newer digital printers are set up to work with RGB images. For example, you do not send CMYK images to the laboratory have printed enlargements and photo books made, you send RGB. As far as your inkjet home goes, it uses different colors as U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) CMYK (some printers use six inks or more), so conversion to CMYK is not even properly correspond with the inks used.
This is the reason why you see the alert message. It is no longer a world where convert you all images to CMYK for print, if Photoshop is to make sure that it is something you really need to do. Because if you convert to CMYK when you do not need, your images will look worse because CMYK does not provide the number of RGB colors.

How to convert a sequence of images Cineon (.cin) HQ ProRes 4444
Hello
I have a Cineon (.cin) sequence of images I would like to convert to Apple ProRes 4444 HQ.
When I tried to add the image sequence, I get an error saying:

Could you suggest a way to do this? Thanks in advance for your help.

After a bit of searching on Google, the only Apple application that I could find that will work with these files is color, part of Final Cut Studio abandoned. You have access to the after affects? In my view, what AE will open your IS.

How to convert a lot of images in worm 2012

Is to turn AutoSync on in the lower right corner to develop. In this mode, all changes to the current image will be applied instantly through all the images highlighted. Otherwise, this is only done for the current image.
So you can choose a folder, Ctrl + A, and then in the camera Calibration Panel select your version of process. Or, there is an option near the top of the settings menu, upgrade to the current version of the process. Or, you can save a new develop Preset where only the Version of process parameter is checked and apply it like that.
Otherwise, you could synchronize or parameter to copy - paste just the PV of an image, on one number of other...
.. joking, being aware of the fact that appearances may change in unpredictable ways when you do this - if pictures it may be a matter to do so at a time when you are ready to re - treat compensation for that specific images.

Color setting required in RGB to CMYK
Hi all
We made a photop for brochure & convert RGB to CMYK.
Can I take any color setting in my Photoshop CS5 (I have a MAC)
If printing is cooperative, it would be best to send only RGB profile images.
You will get a paper until the race is printed?
I recommend that read you about color management (for example in help or the http://www.gballard.net/psd/cmstheory.html ).

Hello
The press asked me to create a file PDF of CMYK to print. Do I need to change all the photos I have of RGB to CMYK, or is it enough for just the print to PDF with CMYK properties?
Export to PDF using the press setting will automatically convert RGB to CMYK.

How do I place what the images are RGB using the separations preview?
2 questions: 1. how to spot what the images are RGB using the separations preview? 2. is there an easy way to convert those to CMYK without opening each to the PS? I've done it before all the time but I'm rusty and don't remember how I did it. I'm on CS6.
One of the many methods to discover, you can:
(1) you can use the links Panel. Open the links Panel. Go to the menu of the Control Panel, and then choose Panel Options. In the dialog box Options Panel, under Show column check 'color space '. Now, when you view your links Panel it will show the color space of all related images.
(2) you can use the preflight and set a preflight profile. In the profile, go to the section color > color spaces and unauthorized Modes and check RGB. Then all RGB images have reported.
(3) If you need to know before you place the images, use Adobe Bridge. Open the folder where the image. Use the metadata Panel and view the color space of images.

How to make an RGB or CMYK AI file to STAY in color, despite the presence of black?
I give up. If I presented all lines at all in black to start, no matter how much color needs to go in the illustration, it will be necessary to constantly hit the color/options/RGB or CMYK registration to continue working in color. Complete a curve, join the ends, fill it with red... No, it seems, with the grey wire. Go to the color, poke 'options' Panel, scroll down to RGB. Check. Back to the figure of the curve. Adjust the black line. Fill with... Gray again. Back to color Panel. And so on. Is it possible to declare an image "RGB" or even "CMYK" and make it stick? I mean, same CMYK? What Black INCLUDES? And you, CMYK? I tried Document Setup-did not have a difference.
The only solution I can think, after all this, is to dump black entirely and start all the drawings with lines of red, blue, green or dark blood. Does anyone have a better solution?
If you select your line, not the K 100% color panel shows?
Then, you work with the grayscale option.
Select a line, choose: select > same outline color.
Go to the Options of the color Panel and switch to CMYK.
