My mind is wiped out. I'll put up pages in Photoshop 9.0 to be then placed in InDesign 4.0 for professional printing. Can you help me configure the proper color settings, and what PDF preset to use. And output parameters, etc. Thanx.
My mind is wiped out. I'll implement the color pages in Photoshop 9.0 to be then placed in InDesign 4.0 for commercial printing in book form. Can you help me with the settings of color in Photoshop, that is to incorporate the color profile; convert in space work, Adobe RGB, etc. and which PDF preset to use, i.e. printing, PDF / X - 1 or 3, etc. Also, what I have to select the output settings such as the conversion of colors with the Destination or the printer deals with that. I know I asked a lot, so thanks in advance for any input or advice.
Best regards, ScottyB34
What are the settings of your printer wants? Some may deal with sRGB some want Adobe RGB Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-k in Photoshop, then choose North Amercian prepress 2
He'll take care of the tags for you, or if sRGB is important, Norh American General Purpose 2.
Here is a summary of the settings PDF and their meaning:
When you are ready to create a PDF file from an application such as Illustrator or InDesign Adobe, we give you a list of the predefined PDF settings from which to choose. Well how do you decide which is the right choice? Well, let me explain what they do.
Let's start with the smallest file size and the name of the type of the story. It is compatible with Acrobat 6, which means that anyone who has Reader or Acrobat 6 or above will be able to open the file. Now it converts everything in sRGB color which is a common space for color monitor.
All RGB is truncated to sRGB, CMYK and spot colors also. So that means if you have a job to print, you can see some color shifts in this outgoing PDF. You must decide whether it is acceptable. He can't stand live transparency, not flattened. It downsize image content to 100 pixels per inch and this is part of how she made a reduced file size. It also uses aggressive JPEG compression of poor quality on the content of the image. So, you can see some of these rectangular JPEG artifacts.
But it is how it gives you a reduced file size, and results are appropriate to be posted online or attached to an email.
High quality printing has compatibility with Acrobat 5 and above. There is no color conversion. RGB RGB stays, rest spot, stays of CMYK CMYK spot and it supports live, not flattened transparency. It does not perform some downsampling to 300 pixels per inch. So, for example, if you placed an image which was 300 ppi and then set to scale up to 50 percent there actually a res then 600 pixels per inch.
Well, this process would take half out these pixels. Therefore, it can create larger files but that makes it suitable for in the House of printing or sending Let's say a remote office if they want to print we tell cells leaves, or brochures, or something like. It's beautiful out on an internal printer.
Print quality and high quality printing have similar names, so this may be a bit confusing, but print quality has compatibility with Acrobat 5 or higher. It converts the content of RGB to CMYK destination values according to what you specify as the destination.
It is usually SWOP, S-W-O-p. It supports live, not flattened transparency. It performs the subsampling bicubic to 300 pixels per inch and because that it keeps at least 300 pixels per inch, which means that it can create some large files, but it is suitable for professional printing.
Then we start to get into the presets named 'X '. 'X' is now for Exchange. They agree on specifications and the idea is to have a set of specifications if a PDF file is compliant to these specifications, we know it's going to be printable.
We know that imaging devices are going to treat them properly. So this goes back to 2001, and which can seem a bit old, but bear with me. PDF/X-1 has a compatibility with Acrobat 4. I know, it sounds old. It converts RGB to CMYK content, it keeps the content of good tones. It flattens transparency. Downsize it at 300 pixels per inch. It can large enough crat files if you have large size images in your project and that it is suitable for professional printing.
The idea behind X-1 is if you send a PDF file to an unknown printer, you do not know what are their capabilities, you send abroad, it will be able to be photographed on any device. No matter the age, it is, they can print. Over the years, the concepts of Exchange became more sophisticated the workflow and devices become more sophisticated.
SP PDF / X-3: 2002, remains compatible with Acrobat 4 and that means that it flattens transparency, but it does not perform any color conversion.
This means that it maintains RGB content, place remains in place, rest of CMYK CMYK. He still performed bicubic downsampling at 300 pixels per inch, and therefore, it can create large files. But this is suitable for commercial printing, if the printer signals you that it is present RGB content is correct.
PDF / X-4: 2008 is compatible with Acrobat 7 and later. See, we're getting more modern. No color conversion. RGB RGB stays, stays CMYK CMYK, spot rest spot and it supports live, not flattened transparency.
He still performs bicubic downsampling. Therefore, it can create large files because it maintains the pieces of the image to 300 pixels per inch or higher and it is suitable for commercial printing, as long as the printer tells you that RGB content is not serious and dynamic transparency is acceptable. Some older workflow does not support dynamic transparency, or they treat well, and that's why always ask. It is a special case in Illustrator, something called default Illustrator. Its compatibility is Acrobat 6 or higher.
It does not perform the color conversion, everything continues like this. It supports transparency live, not flattened, and it also contains the original, editable Illustrator file in the PDF file. It preserves layers and it may be return, can be reopened safely in Illustrator and it's really the only PDF format you can do with safely. But it can create larger files, because you sort of two files for the price of one, they sometimes get huge.
So what predefined PDF is Right For You? Well, if you want to send for printing, the first thing you should do is to ask your printer how they want the created PDF.
They should be able to give you the plug for the creation of the PDF file. They may be able to give you job options files you can simply import and use as your preset target. But if it's a stranger the printer or the printer for some reason any said, well, I don't know, just make a PDF and this happens, well, choose the lowest common denominator to the PDF/X-1 test. Anyone can image that. If it is a more modern printer and up to date, especially if you send it to someone who uses digital presses, PDF/X-4 should be safe.
I always go back to point one, ask the printer. If you send it as an attachment or you're going to post online, well, smaller size of file is a pretty clear choice. But remember this, you can start with one of these predefined parameters, and you can always edit it to customize your specific needs. So get to know the presets, understand the destiny of the PDF you create, and then make the best PDF that you can.

Can you help me solve the color picker in CS4?
Hello world
I have PS CS4 on a Vista 64 system and suddenly noticed (maybe it done all along, but I don't remember using the eyedropper tool to color since his arrival of the PES in PS a few months ago) that the same color eyedropper tool not come remotely close to picking the appropriate color that I select with the pipette. I was doing a tutorial on brushes last night and tried to choose the red color of the dress of my child in the picture as the foreground for the brush color. The color picker chose a color in the browns. I moved and then choose a light green, once again, he chose a color in the browns. I have no idea what gives.
My monitor is calibrated using Color Munki create and, as stated in the tutorial, I use Adobe RGB 1998 color space. But for some reason, the color picker does not behave. And I couldn't find anything in my research on what is a bug.
Someone would be able to advise me?
Thanks in advance.

Made settings and output module - Windows 7 default file location?
Hi all
Confession: I'm generally confused about render settings and output modules, so forgive me if this question seems stupid.
Issue 1: Where AE stores the default render settings and output module files (I'm on Windows 7)? I want to save a copy of these in the case where I spoil them, but can not find the folder. I think these are files .aom and .ars, but I just upgraded my CC 2014, lost all my custom settings and to save the default values before as I have try to load my various custom files to see if I can recover my settings. When I get *.aom or * .ars, I can't find the settings to 'default' of late in 2013 (I think there is a more recent version somewhere.)
Thanks in advance,
Lori
They are in the same folder as the file of the General preferences and the keyboard shortcuts file. You can open this folder by clicking on the button at the bottom of the Preferences dialog box.
But there is no need to save the default values. If you delete the render settings or output module settings file, After Effects will recreate just the default values.

What is the best 'color settings' for documents 4 colors Photoshop 9.0 for eventual printing on a printer? Thank you, Scott
The 'best' color settings are profile and end points specified by your lithographer. You can see that the work will be produced in CMYK mode, it can specify a RGB. (One of the reasons why it might ask for an RGB file and perform the conversion itself is so that it can prevent its competitors its CMYK settings that apply to the GCR, generation of black [ramp] and limit of total ink regarding specific paper.) Its recommendation may also vary depending on your choice of paper and the surface of the paper. If the choice of the particular lithographer cannot be done at this time, it is generally acceptable to provide the Adobe RGB file with the default settings of Photoshop.

Please help with the correct color settings
I use ID CC depending on which we, my printers want my final PDF either as PDF/x-1a (I know it does with regard to Flattening) or PDF/x-4.
I need all color images for close to CMYK, no matter what they were when placed. I need all 100 %K black to stay like this and not to convert an intense black.
Currently, my document color settings are:
Parameters: general use of 2 North America
Workspaces:
RGB: sRGB IE61966 - 2.1
CMYK U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
Color management policies:
RGB: Preserve embedded profiles
CMYK: Preserve numbers (ignore linked profiles)
Conversion options:
Engine: Adobe (ACE)
Intent: Relative Colorimetry
I use the default settings for PDF/x-1's or PDF/x-4 (most have the ink Manager to convert all tasks to deal with) and and always receive a yellow warning with the following in general warning triangle:
The preset specifies source profiles that do not match the current color settings file. Profiles specified by the color settings file will be used.
What should I check in my document color settings to avoid this error message (the resulting files do appear to be OK for what I need, I want to just make sure that I put it just in case this error). Of course, other thoughts are always appreciated also.
What should my document color settings also if the final document will be black and white (in grayscale) and contains only data on the black plate?
Sorry to contradict the Peter a bit here, but X - 4 allows to RGB, rather than to specify it, so you can have your PDF by setting 'Convert to Destination (preserve numbers)' with an appropriate destination CMYK profile and still conform to the standard X-4.
That's what I'm doing here, because I prefer the Adobe CMM performs the conversion.
