• 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.

• 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.

Depending on what you want to do, you can import the video directly using layer--> new video layer for example what concealing fied sites with a blob of brush on a layer on the images, but you may also need to create separate layers for each image using the frames to layers script, so you can paint on each of them individually.

• 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.

• 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 ).

• Photos of RGB and CMYK PDF

  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.

  Hi all

  I'm converting a drawing printed in photoshop cs5 from RGB to CMYK. My layer merged after the use of convert to RGB to CMYK profile.

  After this, I save the file and close it, and I didn't have a backup of this file.

  Now please suggest how can I recover my all layers

  I don't need that my layers back...  Please help me

  Finally you all say there is no way back...

  because I checked flattened when I convert.

  No Way Back, I'll take care of it in the future

• How to automatically convert RGB objects.

  I'm running a problem with preliminary controls automated when deliver PDFs for print to some of our partners, bounce, based on vector objects that use RGB color chart. My task is being intermediaries between a creative agency who designs our advertising and release to the magazines who use them for printing. I usually resize the files slightly based on the catalogue, check that related images are correct and so a minor update, it must be simple cool stuff. Unfortunately a lot of the design of our agency files use a mix of RGB and CMYK shades for objects and this has been repeatedly causing the pre-flight automated software used by one of our partners, and then I have to track down each object and convert them, reviewing the files several times if I lack. Although Illustrator is not the ideal program for print advertising, I want to solve it is much simpler, if the document is in a CMYK profile, then I never get denial for the RGB color chart, as they are converted. Is it possible to automatically check color chart RGB in InDesign, or bring marked in step of the package (seems not catch).

  Thank you!

  Makes the PDF?

  It's pretty easy to define a preflight profile in the ID to the RGB color flag, and you should be able to convert a specified CMYK profile automatically on the export of color if you are using the right settings.

  For the most part, this resembles that done needs of a PDF file to implement a predefined export to convert the color to the printer specified by the profile.

• Print/objects in Illustrator CMYK, background in Photoshop RGB

  It's something that I did some time now without any problems yet, but I would like to know if it is a 'proper' or 'good' technique.

  Essentially putting something together for printing, I work in Illustrator, the text and some objects like vectors. Then configure my backgroung in Photoshop.

  Illustrator document is configured as CMYK, but the background is in RGB, it allows me to use things like filter overlay etc.

  I then place the background in Illustrator and just assume that the colors that don't print will be adjusted automatically by the Illustrator to export.

  Am I right to assume that good?

  Theoretically, you should be able to use RGB images in CMYK files and features (color calibration) are the so-called 'color management' will produce the best conversions CMYK 'possible' appropriately for the target output device.

  However, requires that you work in and understand, a workflow configured properly "managed color' with the correct settings of your monitor on the final print device. (And frankly, if you understand this, you wouldn't ask that question.)

  Realistically, people place RGB images in page layout (design) programs and for decades without problems. They often don't admit it, but it is true. Really, it boils down to two considerations:

  • How color-critical are raster images?
  • How the 'picky' are you?

  Especially if you are one of these creators of prima donna "sensitive artist" who are convinced that they have some color Super humanly increased discernment (gag me) and are simply too learned to never be bothered by something so funny that technical considerations, then you have a lot to learn and you will never be satisfied well-formed output CMYK , and still less the reality hard and cold physically inevitable RGB to CMYK conversion of the compromise.

  But if the project at hand allows you to focus on the practice regarding color accuracy - to-the original and have realistic expectations, most of the workflow auto conversions may be fine for your needs.

  For example, suppose that the raster image is a cartoon, or just a kind of model no objective. In many cases, minor color changes are not really a problem, because nobody in the 'true' color of the original.

  Conversely, suppose that the raster image is a recognizable subject. You wouldn't a greenish blue sky to go or someone tired to go pale.

  It's something that I did some time now without any problems yet, but I would like to know if it is a 'proper' or 'good' technique.

  Of course, it is not 'correct' or 'good '. Best practices, is to only use CMYK color corrected in documents CMYK images. It's just that sometimes, on certain types of projects, it is not really important for all purposes useful.

  For example, I frequently produce technical documents which are delivered via the two composite characters on request and small and efficient interactive PDF format. I'm developing separate versions of RGB and CMYK documents; that would be ridiculous. Photos and vector graphics involved are not critical of color and RGB works very well.

  If you are a serious Designer, you should work with CMYK (in most cases) images and learn more about color calibration of standard practices, but also (and probably more importantly still) learn more about the correction of the color and how to exploit the benefits of RGB and CMYK and Lab to improve of the images for CMYK printing.

  I also frequently produce ads for placement in magazines. I have full CMYK, usual pre-press and practical standards, build them and sweat blood over the realization of optimal color.

  Illustrator document is configured as CMYK, but the background is in RGB, it allows me to use things like filter overlay etc.

  In other words, there are some things you can do in RGB that you can't do in CMYK mode. Guess what: it's nothing new. For example, correction of same color color-critical movements are quite often made in Photoshop in RGB. I'll sometimes use a copy of a RGB channel to change the CMYK channels. But when the image is completed, it is converted to CMYK for the final placement on the page.

  The same can be done in Illustrator. You can work in an RGB document and use the effects of RGB if you want, then flatten transparency and convert all to CMYK. Consider: you can use RGB effects throughout the day, but if you want to be printed using the standard CMYK, all your stuff of RGB color separation will be converted to CMYK before the ink hits the paper somewhere . It's just a matter where that will happen. You can control yourself or entrust it to some automagic along the railroad stage (i.e.; abandoned).

  But if you do use RGB images in projects for the CMYK separation, you must be realistic and understand that the garish neon colors you see on your monitor just won't be mapped in CMYK mode. For example, bright blues will go significantly desaturated, Cyan being the weakest ink in CMYK. If you can consider this rules of thumb and just take what you get. But don't whine (as one of the aforementioned tenors) your print results are "flat" or 'not vibrant' or 'disorder' or 'bad '.

• RGB or CMYK vector questions

  I'm not an experienced user of Illustrator so please speak in basic terms.

  I downloaded several vectors from shutterstock.com. I need to change to RGB to CMYK. Below shows what happens when I pass the color profile. How can I keep this from happening? 1 image is RGB. 2 image is CMYK.

  I use Illustrator 5.1 on a PC.

  

  

  Blend modes appear different in different color spaces, because they are not affected by the color management, but the biggest change is in gradients. If the work uses one or more gradients just redo them in the space of CMYK color and you should be fine. For the best possible match in order to use the color management you must first select all and rasterize the image to output ppi resolution. Then when converting to CMYK only out-of-range colors as appropriate, will change your appearance.

• I should have a RGB AND CMYK profile in my document?

  It is clear - I'm a Dum-Dum Indesign. I have problems with a booklet that I print.  The same color of blue is printing very differently.  Two blue objects on the same page so differently that one of the objects looks purple print, and is considered the blue, I was expecting.  I did a bit of reading forum, and I wonder if the problem is that I cut and pasted some graphs in Illustrator, who may use a different color profile than InDesign.

  Enter my dialog box "Assign profile" selected buttons indicate that I use both CMYK and RGB color profiles.  Maybe that's the problem?  If you use the profile only one color in a document which requires the same color consistency?

  Update:

  I just checked the color profile of one of the graphics that I imported from Illustrator, and it is a CMYK document.  As far as I know, my ID document has been also implemented CMYK.  What I've done so far is: entered in attribute profiles and disabled the RBG profile, leaving only the active CMYK profile.  But is it possible that I use two different CMYK profiles, and that's where the problem lies?  If so, how to convert at the same profile so that the blue color is consistent throughout this brochure?

  Thank you very much!

  Can you give me any advice will be much appreciated!

  Thank you

  Bryan

  These fine technical answers are probably tell you more you need to know...  Basically, if you create a document and you want to 100% match, you will work in the space of a single color, only and with a working profile.  Assigning will change the appearance of colors, but depending on the circumstances, may lose the link fatally to original color values.

  Keep a profile when you create the objects.

  If you use an object that was created in a different work profile and this profile is tied/embedded, you can convert but not assign, affect the will perhaps break the color management and alter the appearance.  The only time where you must assign is if the object has already assigned profile and that you assign is the good that should have the object.

  As mentioned, appying effects such as feathers etc. can cause changes of colour of the original intent also.

  Opportunities to combine native RGB and CMYK objects and get a full match are small, as the colors are often converted by accessing the largest laboratory as an intermediate translation (among others) color space and the result is not symmetric (if you go there and back, you do not get the same result) and it is rounded values that causes small displacements.  These changes aren't bad for web stuff but results are often unusable in the press.

  Depending on your settings in InDesign, you can properly managed color in various objects that looks bad on the screen but to properly convert PDF for printing too... but that's another story!

  Keep things simple, to work in a space!

• 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.
