Photoshop :: Converting To Different Colors Works?
Oct 8, 2012
I'm trying to understand how converting to different color profiles within Photoshop works.
What I'm trying to understand is why, when I have a document saved in with an embedded color profile of "Adobe RGB (1998)", when I *convert* the color profile to "Adobe RGB (1998)" (the same profile) the colors change dramatically. If I am converting to the same color profile, shouldn't the colors remain the same, and not change?
I have some DWG files which contain walls of old castle some of the vertex are missing so I have to join them manually or found software to generate them automatically Does solid works have this functionality ?
After joining vertex how can I convert walls to meshes?
We are going from Solid Works to Inventor as our main CAD program and will be converting files to .ipt and .i am. We are moving our file structure into the vault as it is, with some commonly-used components in their own folders. When I convert an assembly, it only grabs the parts that are in the same folder as the assembly. Is there a way to have it look in other folders for components or to have it ask me to locate ones that are not in the assembly folder?
I have a simple graphic (not continuous tone). I need to convert the colors in it to their nearest matching Pantone colors. Is there a way to do this in PhotoShop?
I have been trying to convert both Pantone Colors to CMYK and CMYK to Pantones on a few of my projects. I walk throught the steps but nothing happens. My counterpart which has CS5.5 also is able to do it both ways just fine. Is there a pre-set someplace that I need to be aware of?
I recently installed CS5 on my laptop after first removing it from my previous machine.All licences were validated so no problems there.Now when using paint bucket in Photoshop, the colors that I select in the color picker are not the colors that result when I use the paint bucket.
If I create a new black canvas then the colors selected in color picker work with paint bucket.But if I attempt to recolor the background in an existing image that I import into Photoshop, I get the mismatch with colors when I use paint bucket. My method for selecting colors is the same in each case, I select 'set foreground color' and set the color using html values entry at the bottom of the panel.
Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. See attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.
The colors of pictures is much darker when working in photoshop than when I open it normally. And vice versa, I work on images inside photoshop, and I get the colors I want, but once I save it to bmp or jpg or anything else, all the colors are much lighter.
Oil Paint is suddenly crashing Photoshop CC, even though it worked fine a couple of days ago and works fine on Photoshop CS6.
Error: "The flter you were using encountered an unknown graphics processor error that caused an unexpected exit. Check the manufacturers website for the latest software."
I'm up to date on all of my software. Working on a Mac Pro, older model, but as I said, Oil Pain filter works fine on Photoshop CS6 and worked yesterday on Photoshop CC, but not today.
I have a PSD with the size of 344 MB. When I open it with Photoshop CS5, it take 1,38 GB from the RAM.When I do the same with Photoshop CS6, it take 5,26 GB from the RAM.Then CS6 works very slowly and I can forget to do anything with it.
I have a notebook with this technical data:
Intel Core i7 2Ghz8 GB Ram AMD Radeon HD 6850M 4GB1000 GB HDD...The settings for performance of both Photoshop are the same.
I had 3 updates through the so-called cloud. They were bridge CC, Photoshop CC and an extension mgr update to CS6. After installing the updates Photoshop CC no longer works. It boots up but all selections do nothing. Even closing PS cc won't work.
All of my photos are 8 bit, but when I open them I get a message at the bottom of the screen reading "exposure works in 32-bit only". When I save these photos as any file type (JPEG, PNG, ect) they seem to export as 32bits/channel. That is to say, that they appear very dark and saturated, exactly how they look in PS if I select the 32bits/channel mode option.I may be getting confused between the 32/64bit versions of PS (i'm using 64bit CS5 at the moment.) But i'm really puzzled as to how I can export my images looking the same as they were when I imported them.
Sometimes I'm reading a tutorial and they say I should use Alt+Backspace shortcut in order to fill the selection with foreground color. But everytime I try that on a selection a floating dropdown menu appears (options: Restore, Move, Size, Minimize...)
Okay, I just purchased a new computer, it's Windows 8, 64 bit ... anyhow, I noticed when I try to edit an image, using any tool, clone, erase, the image turns black (the whole thing) and then gets normal again ... I just downloaded CS5 I had on my other computer .... would the 32 bit 64 bit thing come in to play with what's happening here....?
I noticed at the bottom it says 'exposure works in 32 bit only' ?
first of all thank you for taking your time to look at my problem...i've spent a day and a half looking for an answer but nothing works! I have a picture that i try to feather so that the edges won't show when i post it on a webpage but everytime i do it when i upload it,
it's not transparant! it's white! is there something im doing wrong? i tried saving it as a GIF and PNG but that still don't work...it works while im on PS but when i save it, it goes back to white feathering! am i making sense?
I'm using Vista 64-bit. I've purchased two different Photoshop CS4 Extendeds off of ebay and both have had this same problem. Makes me wonder if I'm doing something wrong. I install photoshop, enter the serial number, all works fine. The next time I open up photoshop, it says that the serial number is no longer valid. I tried calling adobe the first time and they said that the number I had given them was invalid, yet it worked the first time. It's like I use it once and then the activation or whatever won't let me enter it again. I'm not sure what to do! Once you enter in a valid serial number,
In preferences, performance, I set "enable OpenGL Drawing". It listed my graphics card "Nvidia Corporation GEForce 7900 GTX/PCI/SSE2"
I tried the rotation and zooming features and they worked well.
As soon as I tried to apply a filter, such as 'filter gallery' or liquify, no preview image shows in the filter screen. It is just white. The controls work, showing I am zooming in, but no image"
CDX5: Whatever color I select for fill or outline is now set as the default color for fills and outlines without expressly setting it as such. Until now when I left or right click a color with nothing selected it allowed me to set it as a default fill or outline color for graphics, artistic text, or paragraph text. It does not do that now.
Is this a "feature" that's been added that I somehow enabled? In any event, how do I turn it off?
I have talked with Apple. These files can be brought in to iphoto and then exported. This is not what I want to do. I want to open in Camera Raw. Is there a workaround with a converter for CS5.5? I see there is Camera Raw 8.1 available. From what I have read, it is only for CS6 or CC - forcing me to upgrade? Then, according to some posts, the Camera Raw update 8.1 is buggy and does not work as well as previous versions.
I really don't want to re-install, uninstall, flush cache, look for fixes, etc, etc. Is there a converter or plugin that works with CS5.5?
Everything will work fine for a while, then all tools will stop working and the only thing i can still use is the eraser. If i select another tool, it selects it on the toolbar, but its still just still the eraser. The only thing i can do is shut the program down and restart it. I have tried reinstalling and this makes no difference, same with restoring all defaults. It DOESNT do this in cs5, just the latest version. Do i need to just ditch the latest photoshop and go back to cs5?
Changing the UI Font size in Prefs>Interface>Text no longer works. It did work after I installed CS6 - I was able to change to the Medium setting, and change it back to Small. Now the actua text size stays at Small, even though it is set to medium. This afterafter I restart PSx64.
I have deleted CS6x64 prefs. Updated today - (says 13.0.1, though I believe the updater said it would update Photoshop to 13.0.1.1)
Windows Appearance and Personalization>Display is set to the default - Smaller. I wonder it may have to do with changing that size - I had tried setting that to Medium - 125%, but set it back to the default Smaller - 100%. Not sure when the PS UI text size stopped working.
I hope that my mentioning changing the Windows 7 Display from 100% to 125% and then back to 100% will give someone a clue.

All of a sudden the Move Tool no longer works. When I try to move an layer on the screen with the Move Tool it moves slightly then jumps back to its original position. The only way I can move a layer at the moment is to use Free Transform, which is not ideal.
I'm having a problem where opening any previously saved photoshop document causes pen pressure to stop working. Upon opening any previously saved document, I get a little warning icon guy next to any parameter set to pen pressure control in the brush pane. Hovering over the warning icon gives me a tooltip that says "Control by pen pressure requires the use of a pressure sensitive tablet".
If I open Photoshop and create a brand new document, everything works fine. But once I open any previously created file, pen pressure completely stops functioning until I restart Photoshop, even if I create a new document from that point.

Is Photoshop CS5 available in Multiple Platfrom (for both PC and MAC) as my LR4 and PSE9?
I usually order a CD but this time I downloaded the program and was forced to choose windows or MAC. So, the serial number only works for Windows and not on my MAC which I use for travel.
My setup is a ATI FirePro v4900 connected to two monitors: an Eizo CG276 and an old second monitor. I would like to get the Eizo to display 10-bit colors in PS CS6 under a 64-bit Windows 7.
After setting everything up, I am at a point where Lightroom 4.4 displays the notorious ramp.psd file (see below) without banding in the develop module, hence I assume 10-bit is working there. In Photoshop, however, I had no success so far to get 10-bit to work.
Here's what I've done so far:
I set everything up as described here [URL] ...........
Summed up, I did: 1) enable 10-bit mode in ATI driver and rebooted -> checked and this is still enabled after reboot 2) open PS CS6 and enable "advanced" drawing mode and 30-bit display in the "performance" options and rebooted -> checked and this is still enabled after reboot
I verified that the monitor runs in 10-bit mode using Monitor Asset Manager 2.6 [URL]. It states that Color bit depth is "10 bits per primary color", which is what I want.
Then I tried to open the ATI 10-bit test file ramp.psd [URL]. In Photoshop it shows banding. As I've read that Lightroom 4's develop module uses 10-bit, I opened the file there and it had no banding.
The only troubleshooting I could find for 10-bit colors in PS was this post [URL] ... however I do not have desaturation set in the color preferences of PS, hence it does not apply to my problem.
see this image[URL]...When I view this image in any browser the colors look great.But in any other program (Windows Photo Viewer, Picasa, & Photoshop) the colors are way way way off, and the picture displays very differently from program to program.
In Photoshop the only thing that is wrong is the black channel which looks grey. Photoshop also gives an invalid ICC notification when opening this image. Is there anything I can do about it?
