Photoshop :: How To Determine Color Book Used In Customer-supplied File
Aug 14, 2013
Using CS5. I am unable to open two files supplied by our client. These two files pre-date CS6, and were made by a branch of our client in Germany. We are in North America. There are many layers of bureaucracy between us and the actual creators in Germany, so communication is impossible.
Â
An attempt at opening the files results in the error, "Could not complete your request because the specified color book cannot be found".However, in this case it is NOT POSSIBLE to "work with the file creator", and it is NOT POSSIBLE to use a different version of PS with the correct books.
Â
I have Color Manager, and I have cluttered up my CS5 installation with every likely-looking color book from Manager in the hopes that one of them would be the right one, but to no avail.So. What do I do? Surely by now Adobe has created some sort of utilty that allows PS to simply tell you WHICH color book is missing so you will know which one to go and get? No?

I think I'm in over my head here. I did a logo for a company in Photoshop CS (it was an ad agency that contracted me so no direct contact with client). Just some text and clip art, nothing fancy. I've sent off the layered file in .psd format. Now they want .eps format. I know you can save as .eps format in photoshop, but there's lots of different options.
Photoshop EPS
Photoshop DCS 1.0 [*eps]
Photoshop DCS 2.0 [*eps]
Other options are
Preview - TIFF (1 bit/pixel) or Tiff (8 bit/pixel)
Encoding - ASCII85, ASCII or Binary. Or JPEG low medium or high.
Include Halftone Screen - yes or no
Include TransferFunction - yes or no
PostScript Color Management - yes or no
Image Interpolation - yes or no
No clue what I need to select here. Is this dependent upon the print shop specifications? Or is there a typical EPS setting I should choose and be done with it?

I've created a template that I use for customer proofs. It has the boilerplate text and three text boxes that I click in and type the "Customer's Name", "Description", and the "Date".
Is there any way of having a text box auto fill with "Today's Date" and the "File Name" with full path in a new text box that I'ld like to add?

If I have to colours, and I want to add a third colour between them to make it flow more... is there a way to determine the middel colour between 2 colours.. eg. grey for black and white
Or between light red and dark red.. there is "normal" red.. but how do you determine the value of normal? Or do you do this just by eye?

I was just about to start on an order I got for a banner. I recieved some materials to work with including fonts. However, I have been using photoshop for a few years now and I never heard of the adobefnt.lst files. However, I found out about what they do and what they are basically for, I think.
However, the real problem is that i recieved a font folder. Within this font folder there was another folder named: "Helvetica Neue Condensed 3". Within this folder there were 8 files:
AdobeFnt.lst
HelveNeuHeaCon
HelveNeuHeaConObl
HelveNeuLigCon
HelveNeuLigConObl
HelveNeuMedCon
HelveNeuMedConObl
Helvetica Neue Condensed 3
So to me it looks like a font and some different styles. The problem is i can't install these files, which names' appear to be font names, I tried giving them some font extensions, like .ttf but it didn't work.
How to install and use these files?

I have an AI file containing seamless pattern swatches.I'd like to get each swatch vectors (ie : access the swatch groupItem). It's doable when clicking on the swatch panel and dragging the swatch on the document, or even double clicking the swatch in the swatches panel, I'd like to do it with javascript.
Â
how to access swatch patterns properties.
How to access the swatch properties, like when double clicking on the swatch in the swatches panel, how to "simulate" a drag & drop of the swatch to the document, I'll take it too, though I think it is not the most convenient way to do.

I have recently stumbled upon a problem I cannot correct. I am using Corel 11 and although I have the default CMYK palette selected, all the colors ( for CorelDraw and PhotoPaint) are in 255 percentages as opposed to the 100% CMYK model. I must have inadverdently selected this color mode but cannot figure out how to revert back to the 100% model. This makes it impossible to determine the exact color you want based on CMYK percentages. I know this is a RGB model but all colors are displayed in CMYK ex. C- 233 M- 122 Y- 114 K- 155.

I'm trying to convert some of my digital images into an image that children are able to color in when printed out.
Does anyone know the best way to do this with Photoshop of Paint Shop Pro?
I've been to many tutorial sites but just can't seem to get the right effect.
All I want is for my image to be white with black lines outlining the edges so that my children can be creative and color them in.

When a customer asks for a logo, what do you do? What do you need to know to make it?
Do you give them a template such as:
Company Name:
Colors:
Etc:
Basically, what do you need to know to make somone a logo (or design in general) and how do you get that information? After you get the information how to you continue with the project?

I am using InDesign CS5 and Photoshop CS5 and have scanned full color illustrations into Photoshop. I am preparing 7x10 saddle stitch and casebound books with the illustrations which need at a 1/8" bleed area. My problem is the illustrations have key elements right up to the edge of them. I need to add complementary colors to fill in the bleed area around them so I don't lose any of the originals. What is the best way to do this? Also, I need to copy colors from the illustrations and make separate pages of the colors to import into InDesign. What is the best method to do this? The colored pages will be the background with story text on them and reside opposite to the illustrations.Â

The help file for user-supllied text added to dimensions says, "To add user text above and below the dimension line, use the separator symbol X. Text that precedes this symbol is aligned with and above the dimension line. Text that follows the X symbol is aligned with and below the dimension line."
How do I get the same effect from the dimension Properties Palette later? Would I have to re-create a dimension to do this in another session? I need text below the dimension on a new line, and have not been able to do it using the Suffix field in the Properties. Adding text there only appends it on the same line. (Or, am I missing a trick here?).

I am working on a photo book and it is not in the recently edited list anymore. I found a folder with all the pages and pictures except for the title page. How is a book identified (extender) so I can find it. It also used to automatically know it was a book and load as such, but all my searches are in vain.

I recently needed to reinstall windows xp. I have saved everything I needed to reinstall all my software. My photoshop CS2 is the only problem I've had. Since it was an upgrade my installation pkge is looking for a previous version. I have the serial number, original reciept, confirmation number, case number and all other materials needed including a challeng code given to me 2 years ago when I upgraded. After 3 hours and being kicked from Customer Service to Tech support over and over with a hold time of 15 minutes in between each one I was finally fed up. Each person tried the same thing. Ctrl/Shift/Dbl Click which does not work. They agree my serial number is correct, they can see my purchase from the order number on my original reciept, but not one could give me a straight answer. They all kept asking the same questions over and over but none made sense. Honestly I don't think there was a language issue either. The last one actually said I should upgrade to CS4..... how could I upgrade that if I can't even upgrade to CS2 on my computer. I have totally lost respect for the Adobe system of support. I have 3 Adobe programs and I am waiting for the day I need support on those. If anyone has any suggestions for me I'd love to hear them. They would not give me any help other than to say I must have a previous version loaded before I can load an upgrade.....NO kidding! But even though I paid and they see I paid for an upgrade in the past....they cannot come to the conclusion that the previous version would no longer be loaded on my computer.....I've upgraded...the previous one is gone. My only hope is to get ahold of a previous cracked version so I can run my paid program through with the previous installed..... that risks my computer getting malicious files on it...which is why I did the clean install in the first place......

I am in the process of making a photobook using Lightroom and discovered when I reached page 240 that I couldn't add any additional pages, much to my surprise. I was surprised because I knew from Blurb's website that the limit for standard paper is 440 pages and mistakenly assumed that this limit would also apply within Lightroom. I did more research online and found many others being surprised by this limitation after spending hours and days on a photo book. I will likely work around this by exporting from Lightroom to .jpg and uploading to Blurb, but that will take extra time and effort and reduces the appeal of using Lightroom to create a Blurb book. I had also tried exporting from Lightroom to .pdf only to find that the .pdf format exported by Lightroom is not compatible with the requirements of Blurb.

I would also like to know how to make a good CD image from a square book cover:
This isn't a great example because it doesn't show image transfer to CD without distortion: [URL]
