InDesign preflight: Swatch Options Manager vs of inks

Is there a difference in the color conversion in the shade of the swatches Palette Options and the ink Manager? I have always in the past used the shade Options to convert a process task *, but did not know if there was a difference in how both worked. Can anyone make light on why choose one over the other in the preparation of files for printing, or they are essentially two different ways to do the same thing?

* What is a lot of difference if you don't manually change the color to a Pantone recommended build CMYK color? Or is it something that depends on the printer?

Peter is correct, the ink Manager is the way to go when the passage of the colors of the spot to the process or vice - versa (in most cases)

When you modify a task to deal with in the swatch Panel, mode of Pantone color data are destroyed and you end up with a custom CMYK sample. Anyone could come in and change the values and not the name of swatch, and then you have a shade is fully watered.

With the ink Manager, you also have the option of using the Lab values for Pantone solid.

There is a debate about this. Technically Lab values are the way to go. The problem is that almost no one uses Lab values during conversion issues.

The truth is that solid Pantone are not intended to print 4 c design. Some colors you can build 100 different ways, but none of the builds is not anywhere near the solid color (i.e. Pantone Reflex Blue)

A problem with the ID is that you do not have the ability to use the values of Color Bridge during the generation of the spot (in the ink Manager). Default is always solid to process numbers or Lab - CMYK color management (if "use Lab values is selected.)

The problem with a strong process is Pantone abandoned it years, substituting Color Bridge. They sell no more solid to process swatch books.

Color Bridge generations can be VERY different from STP. Just look at 1807 or Cool Gray 11.

Color Bridge CS3 is broken. I can't test CS4 right now because my libraries are all corrupt. To test, make a new shade - go to 'Color CMYK PC bridge' and select a number, press ENTER. Now try to redefine it. If CMYK, then Color Bridge mode is always broken in CS4, because the information in the library are not preserved.

Try the same scenario using the solid to process library and you will see it has the library in color mode. That's why I say Color Bridge is "broken". I don't know if he has been reported as a bug, but I can't say that because I can't test CS4.

  • Are the files swatch color management?

    Can I use Adobe Swatch Exchange to save a set of samples of my Swatches Panel and send them to someone else. Anyone know if this is color management? If I set up a shade which is C27 M60 Y100 K11 when working on a project that I intend to print using 2006 GRACol and then send it someone else who works on a project he wants to print using SWOPv2, the nuance will get changed to C29 M63 Y100 K17 (which is the recipe for this same color in SWOP)?

    If I understand the nuances Adobe Swatch Exchange must be color managed.

    Here is what it says in the InDesign help:

    "You can share the strong shades that you create in Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign by saving a swatch for exchange library. The colors appear exactly the same across applications as long as your color settings are synchronized. »

  • Where is the option "Manage" bookmarks in Firefox 19.0.2 so I can rename or delete a folder?

    I tried the 'wheel' icon to manage / delete / rename the bookmark as records suggests the tutorial, but it does not select the option "Delete" (I can see 'remove', will not work) and it offers the option to rename the files. Before I can do a right-click on the title and then rename but now nothing works.
    I have Firefox 19.0.2 on an iMac

    The menu item has been renamed "Show all bookmarks" at any given time. Who should open what is now called the Library dialog box.

    Bookmarks > show all bookmarks

    Under Windows, on the shortcut menu, you always choose Properties to rename, there wasn't an element of rename it. Does it work on Mac?

    Yet, who would not explain why you can't remove...

    You can do what you need to do in the Library dialog box, or is this dysfunction as well?

  • Photosmart HP 7510 - can't find the option to check the ink cartridge levels

    I used my HP Photosmart 7510 for about 3 years on my Windows 7 computer. In the past when I clicked on the icon of the printer, it would bring a window that allowed me to select what I wanted to do with the printer.  Analyze, check the properties, buy supplies and check ink cartridge levels, etc.  I always get a window but have lost some of the options. Unfortunately I don't remember what that all of my choices was previously, but the attached image shows the choices I get now.

    There was at least two other choices that included things like ink levels scan, audit, shopping.  I don't know what happened to make me lose these options.

    Hello

    Try to start the printer FRONT of the computer. The menu now has small change, ink levels are always on top. You can update its software (Oct 2012) by using the following package:

    Hello

    Yes it a. copy the value of preferences in the context of quality to select the option "Black ink" only as a default value. Please note: even print in black only, always use a little during the reheating process color inks. HP Envy 5530 can print when one or 2 color ink "tanks" (but not all 3) are empty.

  • CS6 InDesign overlay Panel options are not available

    I am an experienced Adobe DPS designer and use "Classic" DPS because it was in beta.

    Just upgraded my Mac Pro to El Capitan (10.11.5) and now the Panel inlays in InDesign CS6 offers all the options when a setting is selected.

    overlay2.jpg

    This is true for all types of coating.

    I uninstalled CS6 and reinstalled, updated, remove the preferences. Nothing helps so far.

    Fortunately the Panel works great on a second computer (Macbook Pro), which also has been recently updated to El Capitan.

    A previous post suggests reinstalling the toolset of DPS. But my impression is that these are updated through Creative Cloud now and am not sure that install them separately now are a good idea.

    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance...

    Transferred to DPS forum.

    CS6 is unsupported under El Capitan. It was reported several inconveniences to crashes.

    If not help not trashing prefs, restore your previous operating system.
