Missing color chart

• Suggestions to save commonly used color charts

  I could save a lot of time if I had an easy way to load and update a range of shade for Premiere Pro.  Because the color picker does not include an option for the recently used colors, constantly, I type in the numeric values for customer color schemes and useful colors.  Am I missing something here?

  Don't know if there is a way to generate the nuances in the first (although I guess you could make a screenshot and download that), what I do is to load the color chart at the Ps library or have

  

  and then to use these samples as samples of color for the first color picker

• How to create a constant color or a color chart?

  How do I create a color chart? This is similar to the creation of an array of strings or an array of numbers?

  How could we create a color constant? For example, for my XY graph, I went to create-> node-> BG Color property,

  and changed it to write. But now I need to wire a "constant color" this property. I don't know how to do this.

  On your front, you drop a table control.

  Drop the digital palette, a box of framed color control.

  Drag the color box in the table.

  On the diagram, click right on the table and constant.

• Photosmart missing colors

  With the help of Photosmart series with Mac OS 10.7.4 C8100. Auto that Test Diagnostic Page shows that four of the six colours, lack light magenta and magenta. Of the four colors, illustrated with black streaks are exposed and the colors are not true. Information on the ink delivery system seems good. Did it routines clean head. Printer to align the attempts fail.

  Are you using genuine Hp unfilled ink cartridges?
  I'm sorry that you are having this problem with the printer, here is a link to a document that deals with the problems of alignment for you printer . He will have to run the printhead cleaning again on the printer.

  Also, for missing colors, I would replace the cartridges, if this step does not considered they might be defective. This printer does not have a removable print head, so manual cleaning and execution of the front side print head cleaning tool (that you already have) are other measures taken to address this problem. He offered to more than one level of cleaning when you have run the print head cleaning tool? If so I'd other levels each level is stronger to try to remove the obstructions of the nozzles.

  If after completing all of the steps, I then try a hard reset on the machine. No user settings are lost with a hard reset and it tries to put the printer in a working state whether this is possible.

  To do a hard reset:
  1. with the printer plugged directly into a wall outlet and turned on, unplug the power cord from the back of the printer.
  2 then unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  3. wait at least 30-60 seconds
  4. plug the power cord into the wall outlet first. If a module with the power cord, make sure that the light of the module and then reconnect power cord on the back of the printer
  5. the printer should power back on by itself, but if not use the power button on front panel to turn on machine.

• Canon MP560 printer printing color is stained with some of the missing color

  Recently, I had paper stuck in the printer, but managed to withdraw.  Now when I print a document, black printing is normal but color printing is stained with some of the missing color which makes it difficult to read words.  Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

  Hi MarthaHudgins,

  To resolve this problem, I suggest you try these methods.

  Method 1:
  I suggest to adjust the color settings in the printing preferences and check if it helps.

  Choose printing options

• Record the color chart of model

  I created a shade of reason and (apparently) registered, but when I try to open it from another document, can't find it. If I search my hard drive I don't is not, even if I have (several times) saved in the folder of the color chart. Any tips? CS6/Mac

  You should be able to find them in def...

  But you can also load the browsing the other library > and select an Illustrator document that has the desired shade.

• By default the color chart - can they be changed?

  The vast majority of my work in InDesign requires that I have colors of our company responsible as swatches to select various elements. I did a file .ase containing only these colors. What I would really like to do now is to include it in my color chart by default so that new document I create will already have them loaded, instead of having to load them separately.

  Is this possible? If so, how should I do this?

  I use the ID CS6 v8.0.2 on a Win7 sp1 machine.

  Thank you!

  Susan

  Load them without opening the files. All future files you create will get them.

• How to create a camera profile that works with a JPG image with my color chart to check inside? [was: color Checker chart.] Really need help]

  I got a color chart to check. It came not with any software whatsoever. I shoot my images in JPG format. I know it's not really ideal but I'm on a tight budget and don't have the money for a digital SLR cameras that shoot raw. Is there anyway that I can always create a camera profile that works with a JPG image with my color chart to check inside? My table also includes RGB values below each color. Maybe I can match each color in the photo these values manually? If so how is this done?

  Thank you

  Bryce

  I've never seen software that does what you ask for JPGs, only RAWs.  The main problem is that any profile or adjustment is calculated according a JPG of a particular chart photo would apply to the other JPG photos with the same white balance.

  Jpg does not use "camera profiles" anyway in Lightroom, the profile is always integrated.

  There is a product that allows to calculate the HSL cursor offset values given a JPG photo their own table owner who looked like a color checker, but had two lines reversed so the software could not be used with a standard-checker color, unfortunately.  Now their table has twice as many patches (48), and looking at it on their site I'm not too sure that it does not always work with JPGs or if she's just raw files, now.

  The graphic and software are called SpyderCheckr of Datacolor.  There are various software that do different things, but none are using a ColorChecker, so having one is mainly a loss until you get a camera that can take raw photos, so keep a humidity and temperature controlled environment as much as possible until you have the right camera.  You can probably use the grey patches to adjust exposure, but that's all.

  Today you need not a digital SLR to have raw photos, well.  My phone Galaxy S6 with the last update of Marshmallow and the software of camera update will take photos in format raw DNG in Pro mode which I can create custom profiles camera to use a ColorChecker, although the camera is really good in itself, so when I found everything first he could make DNG I took a little but now, I usually just use the camera to make the jpg unless the shot is really important and the lighting is not too hard.  I think that S7 phone's camera is even better.

  What kind of camera do you have?  Sometimes, there are firmware hacks that allow the camera to shoot raw format even if the standard camera cannot.

• PANTONE + does not match the previous Pantone spot color chart. I have several customers who are using spot colors in logos etc and now these colors are a mess. Can I get and use the old color for Illustrator books?

  PANTONE + does not match the previous Pantone spot color chart. I have several customers who are using spot colors in logos etc and now these colors are a mess. Can I get and use the old color for Illustrator books?

  Well, the spot color has not changed, but the way they were simulated four-color changed, they now use color management to get to the nearest ink possible task.

  Here is some info:

• Cannot drag and drop a pattern to the color chart

  I have a PC with Windows 10 so maybe that's part of the problem.

  I've been working with a very detailed model and using the function drag / move in the color chart with no problems.  Then all of a sudden it stopped working.  Any thoughts?  I can drag and drop other items in, but not this model more.  Any thoughts?

  Try and select the object complete, then object > model > done. This can generate a more descriptive error message. Will there be a clipping mask in your work?

• Color chart color sorting in InDesign

  Some of the major publications that I work on build up a gazillion of swatches, and I'd like to be able to sort out them. In the past I did manually, by CMYK value. But this takes time and often translates visually convoluted arrangements. The Greens are not all together, we pastels of the reds and yellows, etc.. I would like to do it with a script, to save time and make more perceptually useful and enjoyable.

  Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Or if you are an Angel script, maybe you want to write to me. I've written the scripts before, but I don't know the best way to navigate the nuances, or how to sort them into folders or to group them.

  The base sort method I want is to regroup the nuances in records as follows (each point of the bullet would be a file separate in the palette swatches - or maybe just grouped together in a simple list - could be an option in the script... and the following each bullet formula describes the criteria for colors in this group and how they would be sorted) :

  • Magenta: If M > 127 and CYK < 64, sorting by density
  • Red: If MY > 127 and CK < 64 and M > = O, sorting by density
  • Oranges: If MY > 127 and CK < 64 and Y > M, sort by density
  • Yellow: If Y > 127 and CMK < 64, sorting by density
  • The hot Greens: If > 127 and MK < 64 CY and Y > = C, sorting by density
  • Cool Greens: CY if > 127 and MK < 64 and C > there, sorting by density
  • Cyans: If C > 127 and MYK < 64, sorting by density
  • Blues: If > 127 CM and YK < 64 and C > = M, sort by density
  • Purples: If > 127 CM and YK < 64 and M > C, sort by density
  • Dark colors: all values are > 85, sort by dominant CMY, then by density
  • Pastels: all values are < 15, sort by dominant CMY, then by density
  • Gray: no matter where the CMY values are +/-5 compared to their average (which includes also CMY = 0), sorting by dominant to CMY value then by density.
  • Everything else: sort by dominant CMY then by density

  
  

  (In the section above, "If MY > 127" means, "if M and there are both individually less than 127 ' etc ')
  

  
  

  For gray calculation: average = (C + M + Y) / 3

  
  

  For the sort of density: density = L of (L * a * b), or other formula to calculate the value of lightness/darkness such as: density = (C * 0.49) + (M * 0.6) + (Y * 0.07) + (K * 0.91)

  
  

  For color chart RGB, convert RGB colors and process to CMYK?

  
  

  Remove all of the tones in their own folder (or top).

  
  

  Drop all gradients in their own folder (or the end of list).

  Hi MPrewitt,

  Have fun with your idea, although I'm still getting a large number of samples unassigned in the 'other' category (last group).

  

  My script allows you to play with the thresholds that you have provided, you will probably want to restore the original values.

• Menu problem of color chart.

  My indesign work properly this morning and I quit smoking.  An hour later, I went on it and in the menu color chart, I lost my options down.  In fact, I lost all the options on all of my menus on this side of the screen.  Y at - it a keyboard shortcut, I accidentally hit? He used to be a trash and group option out there. Thanks for your help.

  

  Try to restore your InDesign preferences:

• the color chart "load" command does not in InDesign 2014 and 2015

  The "load the color chart" command in the Panel color chart does not in InDesign 2014 and 2015. Cannot click the Pantone or any other collection, they are all faded.  I have already trashed the Preferences folder and restarted ID and Mac. It started only once I have updated to the latest version of CC, but now it affects 2014 and 2015.  Don't know what to do, I don't like reinstalling one or the other.  Tried to go back to the CS6.  All solutions anyone?  Thank you!

  

  Color chart of load control is for loading samples from other documents or a swatch file.

  Use the new swatch command to add a color.
