Need help with spot colors PMS Pantone

I'm building a document in Illustrator CS6 using CMYK color. I need to add, and in some cases, substitute and identify the correct most closely matched PMS Pantone spot colors but don't see even the PMS library represented in Illustrator. Can anyone help me find Pantone swatches, or is it an add-on for the program Illustrator?

Thank you

Ken

Hello Ken,

  • Need help with LR color management

    Hi, well having had about to master the basics of the LR (point 6.1.1) I am happy that I can now treat my image editing, using a combination of Photoshop/plug-ins LR and LR.

    But I'm not about printing. I installed my new Asus monitor today and after a few hours, that it is fixed; If I take a picture of LR and select "Edit with PSE13" and print from PSE the printed output matches against what I see in LR just about perfectly.

    But if I try to print the image live LR is a mess; black out as a blue greenish, or who are green, bluish, and the whole image seems, well just psychedelic.

    I spent hours on it and as far as I can see the print settings in LR and PES look exactly the same. One thing to add; I print on HP Advanced glossy. In LR so I select that paper it will come out a mess, but if I select plain paper it out OK.

    I installed a .icm for Asus monitor file and I put the sRGB mode.

    In LR, I defined as «managed by the printer» color management

    With the HP printer, well it's not quite like the old days, it seems more automated. Under color management, I chose "ColorSmart/sRGB" which is recommended in the manual.

    Windows color management, I chose Asus PA248.icm for the color profile and sRGB Color Space Profile.icm (sRGB IEC 61966 - 2.1) for the printer.

    Anyone has any ideas on what I might be missing / doing wrong?

    Well, I seem to have gotten almost there now. In EPS, I had always managed by the printer color management. The answer in LR seems LR6 handle color management. I now have a good impression. The color match isn't quite right, with the colors on the impression of being a little more clear/more deep, but I'm sure that if I play with sliders to print setting I will get there. Although once I get the Epson printer with its profiles of specific documents, it may very well be right anyway.

  • Need help with the color picker please

    OK, I'm green to the illustrator cs4 program. But I know it's a setting somewhere that I am missing, just not sure of the correct to check or change place. When I create an image, select the following color hex #0039 6 to use as a background color, when I save the image, the colour of say's: 1F429B

    why it converts it and how do I change to not do this?

    cswd,

    To keep the color, your file > Document Color Mode should not be RGB, CMYK.

    In the CMYK color Mode, when a color is outside the range of CMYK, it will be changed to the color (I hope) best equivalent within the CMYK range.

    Of course, if you need to print CMYK color, you must work in CMYK mode.

    Exclusive Web / another screen use, stay in RGB.

    If you need both CMYK and RGB use screen printing, you will get (usually) different appearances unless you start in CMYK mode.

  • Is there a default value for the color management in PSE10? Beautiful photos from iPhoto, but blur with elements. I need help with this before as I consider that the upgrade to PSE13 and beyond.

    Is there a default value for the color management in PSE10? Beautiful photos from iPhoto, but blur with elements. I need help with this before as I consider that the upgrade to PSE13 and beyond.

    Printing which forms an angle seems ok, but one that is horizontally seems faded, incomplete.

    I was wondering if I saved a layer somewhere and set it as a default value.

    If you group the layers, you will be left with a single layer, thus spreading your concern.

    Suggest that you do the following:

    1. Make sure you have the latest drivers for your printers
    2. Reset the default preferences.

    Hold the Alt, Ctrl + Shift keys when you click the icon to open the items. When asked if you want to delete the settings file, say Yes.

  • Problems with Spot color gradients

    Hi all

    I have little experience in dealing with spot colors.  I'm trying to mix two colors of accompaniment for a print job.  Unfortunately the spot color gradient (left image) do not mix like the gradient color of the process (right image).  On the contrary, they will fade to a lighter color in the Center where they meet.  I'm sure that someone out there can help you because I think that is more of a technical problem that I'm just not familiar with.  Thanks in advance to all comments!

    Hi Hugh...

    The difference between two images, is the color range, mode CMYK is larger than the spot colors, this cause an incompatibility of mixture. If you want a better overview of your spot color on preview test print on the view menu, but don't forget that the reference of the right color is Pantone color card.

  • Need help with image fusion

    Hello

    Before I get to my question, I want to give you a glimpse of the project I'm working on and the aspects that I need help. For a school project, a customer, 94Fifty asked us to create an advertisement that depicts their basketball and could be used in advertising online and in magazines. The 94Fifty of basketball is the world's first "smart ball." It can count how many times you dribbling, the arc of your shot, release time it takes for you shoot, etc. To use the ball, you need an Apple product that can download the application 94Fifty on the App Store, so that this project is done as a collaboration with the company 94Fifty and Apple.

    For my ad, to really capture the idea of being the first smart ball, 94Fifty ball I wanted to mix an image of the texture of the ball of 94Fifty, with the shape and details of a brain, with the slogan being, "A ball that is as smart as you." I have my design buried on, but I'm not sure how to combine the image of the brain with ball should I use layers? How can I remove the pink color of the brain and replace it with the ball while keeping the shape of the brain and the lines creased the brain? Any help and technical that you can give would be greatly appreciated.

    Here are two pictures that I'm trying to mix.

    8376271918_cf0b1b5c4f_o.jpg94fifty ball.png

    I would also try and keep the logo of 94Fifty which is on the ball in the mixed picture.

    Please do not confuse this for to ask me someone to do it for me, it's the exact opposite of what I want, I just need help with what to do.

    Here is a fairly simple method:

    First of all, level of basketball for the type to be horizontal. (Also correct the values of white light - burn at the top left and bottom top right.)

    Mask on white background of the brain and turn the image to 0% of saturation.

    Put the brain on basketball on its own layer. Make the overlay blend mode.

    Using free transform, reshape the brain is greater (rounder), like the basketball, with a visible margin around the edge of the ball.

    -Now, you have a brain in a basketball, but the brain is a bit too subtle.

    Duplicate the layer of brain as many times as you need to get the good contrast (I've duped the layer of brain three times, for a total of four layers of brain).

    You will probably find that you need to use the levels adjustment layers or curves on each layer of the brain, for finer value adjustments. Make sure that each adjustment layer affects only the layer directly below.

  • I need help on the colors in first pro.

    I need help on the color in general information.

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=vLEGtzyZ0Fs

    I made this video in AfterEffects and exported in color 16-bit png sequence.

    I then imported in first pro and added audio and some titles at the end.

    Now, I want to do is have a perfect version that I could watch on my pc.

    I used Mp4 h 264 to compress the video and it is on youtube.

    I think that this compressor support only 8-bit color because there are bands in the sky.

    Now, I have to make a version which is of very high quality that I can watch on my pc... I tried several codecs and it does not work.

    The problem is so long that there something on top of the png sequence in premirere pro as an image or something, it's like

    the displacement of the image in 8-bit color mode.

    It's using Avi Lagarith lossless codec

    Before there is a picture on top...

    ImageA.png

    Just after that, the image appears... As you can the there are a few bands on this image.

    I know it's subtle, but I want to know why this is happening.

    ImageB.png

    Is there something I'm missing... I took much too long to try to fix this.

    I ended up using the Quicktime animation codec for my video. The problem does not occur with this one, and I can't see any decline in the quality of the image.

    Now, I have a file compressed at low cost for online viewing and a huge file that I can watch on my computer.

    On a side note, can you guess how many hours it took for my computer make the png of this video sequence... 12 HOURS!

    Should I get a new computer...

    Thanks for the reply!

  • Newbie needs help with cookie cutter in PSE8

    I'm new to PSE8, the cookie cutter tool and work with layers, what I need help with to accomplish what I want to do.

    I want to use one form of cookie cutter to make several 'holes' in an image, leaving a solid color background layer to show through. (Or another path, use the form of Cutter of biscuit as a solid 'rubber stamp' color to stop shape on the image in several places)?

    I opened my image in the editor and create a solid color fill layer, and then I select the shape of Cutter of biscuit that I want to use, for example a sheet.  Then I select the color fill layer, click and drag to create the sheet randomly somewhere in it.  When I release the mouse button, the window returns to the image and there is the leaf, locked in a box, in the color I want, on the image. I drag the box (leaves) to where I want it and click the green checkmark to accept. So far so good.  Here's the problem: in order to create another sheet on the image, I have to create another layer of fill and repeat the whole process.  If I try to use the same fill layer to a second sheet, the first sheet disappears.  I must be missing something very simple, but I can't figure out how to get out several sheets of a filling layer.  Also, I use a version without the constraint of the sheet because I would create several sheets of different sizes out of the fill layer as well.

    I would be grateful for any help or suggestion!

    Try the following:

    1. File > new > empty file - white
    2. Create a new layer, fill it red
    3. Create a new layer, fill it out of blue
    4. Access the marquee tool, drag the rectangle to the blue layer. You should see "ants in market". Press DELETE on the keyboard.  You should see red in the rectangular hole.
    5. Access to the custom shape (U) tool. In the form of culture library, select the heart shape black all and hang out on the blue layer. Press CTRL + left click the thumbnail of the layer of the capping layer for "mobile dotted." Hit delete on keyboard twice, and you should see red in the heart shaped hole.
    6. Continue with other forms.

  • I'm suddenly needing help with my browser Firefox (6.0.2)

    Hello
    I'm suddenly needing help with my browser Firefox (6.0.2)

    (OS: I use Windows XP).

    When I open the browser, I don't see is a totally white screen of white, with all the toolbars at the top.

    I know that my physical connections are very good: I have tested the modem, turned the pc market etc and I can also receive/send emails.

    This problem started today, September 8, 2011 and has never happened before.

    Is it a coincidence that Firefox itself to day before I disconnected yesterday evening? Could this be something to do with this particular new update?

    I also noticed that just before I "opened" Firefox, I now get a small box indicating:

    [JAVASCRIPT APPLICATION]
    Handl exc in Ev: TypeError: this oRoot.enable is not a function

    This never appeared before - I hope that it offers a clue has what is wrong.

    The browser not be stuck in Mode safe, said by the way.

    Of course, I can't find solutions to the problem on the internet, I don't physically see all Web sites!
    (A friend sends this request in my name from their pc)

    Any light you can throw on this problem of confusion would be much appreciated. I'd rather not have to uninstall and reinstall Firefox if possible.

    If the only option is to uninstall Firefox and reinstall from your site, I'm also in trouble (I can not see the internet or download).
    In this case, would you be able to send the .exe file as an attachment to my e-mail address? In the affirmative, please let me know and I'll give you more details.

    Thanks in advance.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • I need help with an installation failure to interpret and troubleshoot a Setup log.

    Background: A few years ago, many editors of cinema used Final Cut Pro 6 (also contained in Final Cut Studio 2) for their editing projects.  Shared Apple Final Cut X uses a different format that is not compatible with FCP6.  Sometimes, these editors are called to work on a few historical projects that have been published in FCP6 and need this version to run now.

    Starting with OS X Lion, FCP6 would install not in Lion and thereafter.

    According research by Jeremy Johnston as noted on his blog, he discovered that Apple has inserted a file in the folder CoreServices in the Library folder of the system folder that causes versions the version Final Cut Pro X (and other older Apple programs in the same situation) do not settle.  He suggested changes to this file that would seek to prevent interfering with the installation of FCP6 in Lion, many users of final cut PRO 6 were successful in their efforts to install in Lion and work with it.

    Later in a discussion update on installing FCP6 in Mavericks, HawaiianHippie determined that the simplest way to perform the installation of FCP6 was simply copy this file and remove it from the system folder, install FCP6 and then restore the copied file:

    I used this method with success to install FCS2 in Yosemite:

    [click on images to enlarge]

    However, in my attempts to install FCS2 in El Capitan, it fails in the last 5% to install the first DVD:

    First of all, I need advice on how to display an extremely large Setup log in this thread (on MacRumors, it is a method to insert a 'code' in a small box that can be the object of a scrollbar if necessary to read all along).  I am unable to find such a method to post here.

    Then once approved, I need help to determine which component is causing the installation to fail and perhaps this element can be omitted from the installation:

    If this element is not required, then maybe FCP6 can be installed successfully without it.  And if that omitted element is necessary, perhaps a manual method to install it can be determined by pacifists.

    It is my goal to help those who need to install and use FCP6 on their new Macs running El Capitan.

    Here is the post on MacRumors with pre-installed Setup log:
