Illustrator :: Importance Of Embedding ICC Profiles?
Nov 20, 2012
I have created a package of logos in different versions. 30 versions in all. However each logo weights around 1.2 mb. It contains nothing but a few vectors and colors, no blends no images.
If I save as unchecking "Embed ICC profile" the weights falls to around 188 k
unchecking the ICC profile?

I design wedding albums for a photography studio, and I'm currently trying to order an album from Asuka books (in case anyone might be familiar with them). In order to do this, I have to take the folder containing all my files (jpgs) and run it through their "file checker", to make sure all the files are in the correct format. Anyway, everytime I do this, I get a message saying "some color profiles are not embedded". I don't really know much about color profiles, except that the template I'm using from the company is "Adobe RGB (1998)", so I set my workspace color profile to the same. The people at Asuka have not been able to help me, and I'm way behind deadline and about to lose it! Bottom line...Does anyone know how to tell which files have embedded color profiles and which do not?

This is a question regarding Elelments 11 and embedding ICC profiles. I have succesfully set up a colour balanced system for printing on my own premises. At the time of printing I select the relevant ICC profile for the printer/ink combo I am using. However I need to send files way for larger sizes and want to ensure colour correct prints that match as closely as possible the prints I produce in my own studio.
How do I embed the third parties provided ICC profile in the file before sending to them?

I am trying to find out how to embed a mixed ink image into Illustrator (multiple spot colors) and not get single images once it's placed. So far I've only been able to do it with DCS 2.0 files which can only be linked, not embedded. I have been successful with saving PSD files and deleting all of the layer artwork, just keeping the channels, however when I embed that file it converts it into single images of each spot channel and not a mixed ink image. Basically what I'm looking for is when you look up at the top left bar when you have the image selected it should say embedded: mix ink image PPI: 300 or something like that. Instead I've only been able to get single image to show up. What format is required to get that?

Is there some sort of "Auto Embed" feature that will embed your linked images?
I have a document that is embedding most of the linked images. It's not happening in all my documents, just one

How to save an .eps file from Illustrator without embedding the text? I don't mean the fonts, but the actual text. I've created a logo that has text in it, and I want to save a copy as a vector-graphic, without any selectable, searchable text baked into it. I know that I can convert the text to outlines, but I want to actually keep the .ai file to work on, and keep the text in that file to edit.
The only solution I can think of is to duplicate my text layers and convert them to outlines, but that's incredibly convoluted.

I am having some issues with surface profiles on a dreffed alignment no updating dynamically.
Currently it requires me to set them to static, then back to dynamic and they update.
I am well aware of the issue of dreffed surface profiles staying static. I am using the work around of dreffing in the surface and sampling in the drawing using the dreffed alignment.

how to use document profiles? I noticed a yellow ! triangle when I selected RGB as the color space for a new document. When I clicked on it, I was informed that my new document didn't match the document profile, and now I am wondering whether I should ignore that, or get up to speed on how to use/create document profiles.

We are using AD and network smb/cifs home folders and when you create a new document in Illustrator CS6 an error message appears "can't locate startup profiles". try after installin illustrator again". I can look in the folder at ~Library/Application support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS6/en_GB/New Document Profiles , and it is empty. I can replace the folder with a known working one and all is OK. This only happens with network home folders. If I create a local user and launch Illustrator then everything works as expected and there is no error message.

Trying to find ICC Profiles. I am a college student going for my BS in Photography. Our assignment is to take photo paper from three different manufactures and download the ICC Profiles for each of our papers chosen. Let me tell you this is not as easy as it seems! Where I can find the profiles for Adobe PS for different types of photo paper. Each manufacture only gives the ICC profile for their products. No scanned profiles are available.

Ok. I have a problem with colors not matching between Illustrator CS5 documents. I am often emailed documents with pantone colors selected in them. Later, sometimes I need to create another document using those same pantone colors. The problem is, these two documents print the pantone colors differently. In fact, on my screen the file colors look different side-by-side. I figured it was a color settings or color profile issue, so I went in and checked both files. Everything was the same (Working CMYK: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2, Settings North America General Purpose 2, CMYK Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles)) . When I paste pantone samples from one document into the other, they match what's in each other's documents, but the two documents themselves don't look the same and don't print the same.
What color setting could I be overlooking to cause this difference? I don't particularly care if they match on-screen, but it's the fact that they actually print different colors from the same pantone swatch that is the trouble. A blue pantone from one file will print purple from a different file.

When a mixed RGB/CMYK PDF is opened in Illustrator CS6, Illustrator forces a conversion to one color space or the other. See this screenshot: [URL]
I assume this is a limitation of Illustrator and there's no way to keep both color spaces. Under that assumption, Is it possible to choose the profiles used for the conversion from RGB to CMYK? Can Illustrator be made to use the RGB and CMYK profiles defined in its Color Settings to make this conversion?

I keep getting the following error message:
"Your current color settings discard CMYK profiles in linked content but profiles were set to be honored when this document was created."
every time I open an Illustrator document. How this setting was set and how to turn it off. I am just using the standard N America Prepress color setting in Bridge.
I have tried opening new documents using the supplied Ai CS4 new document profiles, no luck. So I am assuming it's a pref that is set in the app itself, yet how to change this setting? I don't even see anything referring to a setting like this.
I found this archived discussion: [URL] .... which had no resolution.

I was wanting to create an image of text embedded in a metal block. Is there any way to use the 3D tools in Photoshop CS6 to create this kind of effect ? I've only been able to extrude text 'up' ( if you know what I mean ! ) rather than down into a negative space.

I made a 50 page book in photoshop cs2, dont ask why I made it in there but I did it all. I'm having it printed from files on a disc, the printer requested that I put each file in a .psd format (not a problem) and a .pdf format as well (again not a problem) but he also asked that I embed the fonts I used into the .psd file so that he prints exactly what I created with the same fonts and all. Im not sure how to do this?

Have just put the finishing touches on a book cover and now need to embed the fonts plus the following. Can I use GIMP to do this?
Fonts and images are embedded.
Bookmarks, annotations, and comments are disabled.
Document security (any type) is not used.
PDF/X format is used. PDF/X is preferred, but if you are submitting non-PDF/X files (for example, PDF/A), any comments, forms, or other non-printing objects could be removed during our review process.
Transparent objects are flattened.
Spreads and printer's marks are disabled.
Downsampling, or decreasing resolution, of images is disabled.
Bleeds are enabled (if applicable).

We have an Inventor Drawing Border Template which is 381KB in size. We have a drawing checklist in PDF format which is 182KB in size
We thought to insert this into the IDW file so it would appear in the browser bar as embedded under the 3rd party section this actually works a treat....BUT The total file size of the template is then 2049KB which is too large. Why is it when inserting a 182KB File into a 381KB file it creates a combined file size of nearly 4 times the size of the 2 files?
It seemed difficult to have files this large repeated over and over again.

We have Inventor DWG templates that I have created based on our AutoCAD DWG templates. We chose the INV DWG route to simplify template creation. However, our logo has a gradient hatch with the 'O', something which Inventor cannot handle.So we now modify the logo only, changing the 'O' to an embedded bitmap image. The same goes for the ISO logo.
After doing this, I noticed the drawings were increasing in size, at a much higher rate than detail I was addding to the drawings. If I go to Tools > Links, i see that the bitmaps are being replicated, over and over (seems like after every save, or every time the drawing is opened). The count can hit around 45 embeddings!
The problem is that the logo randomly drops off (on screen and after printing) due to there being too many embeddings, and I cannot save the Inventor DWG to an AutoCAD DWG any longer (clients request editable DWGs).
Question : How do I stop the embedding replications?
Drawing with all views deleted. Notice file size of 8mb. Normal size around 1.4mb from template file.

I have a tight head shot of a guy and I need to embed a steel zipper onto his face so that it looks like his mouth has been sealed shut by the zipper. This needs to look as realistic as possible.
I have shot both and am about to morph them together. I do not have issues with close cutting the zipper it is more about how to "embed" it so that it looks realistic.

I want to export some files for printing by a service bureau using a custom profile which is 1.87 MB and do no not want to embed the profile. The images will then be sent directly to the printer without any adjustments and the profile is not needed. This is an option in Photoshop, but I have not found a way to do this in Lightroom.

Below is a link to a github repo that has a code example showing how to embed an IronPython engine inside a C# addin. It is the same as the "Simple AddIn" that comes with the SDK, only with the logic part of the addin factored out into IronPython. I could never find anything on using IronPython with Inventor so I'm posting this for any others that might be interested.
The main reason for doing this is to speed up development time. Edits related to the python code do not require the cycle of shutting down Inventor, compiling, restarting etc. More detail is in the readme. URL....

We have recently started having issues with our sets coming back from the printers. We are using ACA 2013. We us the "Arial" font for all of our noting.
When we need a check set printed we typically send a PDF of the set to our printer for reproduction. Lately I have been using the "export > to pdf" function under the drop down. The problem is, when we view the PDF in our office, it is perfect but when we ship it off to the printer he see's missing letters and open boxes in some areas instead of letters.
I am assuming that this is because the font is being substituted with something else. When I recreate the PDF using the plot command and use the Adobe PDF printer I can uncheck the "Rely on system fonts only, do not use document fonts". This seems to remedy the problem and the printer is able to print and view the PDF just fine.
So, is it possible to set the default settings of whatever the "export to pdf" uses to convert the dwg into a pdf so that is will embed the fonts. There is not an option for that under the Export to DWF/PDF options.

If I export text to PDF my font become BOLD and does not look like in Xara. I used Arial font. Is it possible to prevent Xara from embedding font when exporting to PDF? I deselected that option in export settings, however, it still does it.
(it does not do that only if I select first option when exporting to PDF called Draft Quality, however, in this mode pictures are in low resolution)

My problem might be a little more complicated than most problems considered 'beginner', but for all I know about GIMP (which is very little), it could be very simple.
I wish to superimpose text on an image so that the text's color us what color it was superimposed upon. To better explain what I want, take this rainbow image:
[URL]
Say somebody type a large lowercase g near the top left corner of the image. The top circle of the g would be red whereas the bottom circle (or hook depending on the font) would be purple since it dips that far down.
After I finish typing the text, I could save that layer, or cut/copy that text as a new image and save it then.

I have a website I am building- website funny .I have elements Organizer set up with multiple albums that I can sync up to Photoshop.com. I would then like to have a link on my website that launches an embedded copy of my gallery into the website so it appears that it is all part of the same site.
Does this capability currently exist? Would I have to sync it up with another site (PhotoBucket or other) to make this happen? I don't want ot maintain the files in multiple locations and Elements Organizer does not have direct FTP capability (if it does I haven't found it). So I am looking for a one-stop solution if possible.
