I am running PS 6 for win64. Today I suddenly starting getting an error message saying that my ICC profiles are invalid. When I try to write a raw file to .tif after it has been converted to black/white, I get a corrupted .tif file.
So I have been trying to reinstall these profile files using the ones for PS4 as provided on your web site. But they won't install properly, and the problem persists.
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.

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.

I just noticed a link to Adobe ICC profiles but there was no description of what they are or what they do. I'm using CS4 and LR2.

Those files are most used for printing from a wide inkjet printer. Where do I put the colour profiles? I am not sure if the colour profiles need updated or not.

When i work in photoshop, and then save an image for web use, the colour profile difference means that the saved image looks quite a lot different to the photoshop version (this happens on both the laptop screen, and external display.
All i want is the colours in photoshop to display how they would look in my browser. So if i set a page background on a webpage to be #c5c1ba and then open up photoshop and start colouring with #c5c1ba, they look the same shade.
I have recently started using a printer profile (Epson photo 1270). My query is this. I take a picture with my camera (Canon 10D), which when viewed on my monitor in ACDsee looks about right, colors ok, just needs a few touches here and there maybe. I then open it in Photoshop using the printer profile and the pictures looks very different. Now I realise what is happening but I am having great trouble adjusting the picture back to how it looked originally(which I was fairly happy with). I also know that if I can adjust the picture to how it looked it will print out almost identical to how it looks on the screen, so that is ok. It just takes a lot of time to do this using the Photoshop tools, and it is so hit and miss to try and put it right and get back to the original colors etc. Is there a shortcut that can be used, using the color values from the original view before it was opened in Photoshop or something like that? It just seems a lot of work for every individual photograph I may want to print out. I can compare the two views of the same photograph by having Photoshop and ACDsee open together.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get my magazine ad to match the original as close as possible. The first ad I placed came back muddy and dark. So I had the magazine contact the printer they use to get an ICC profile for me that I could load as the working color space in photoshop to prepare my file. Im I doing the right thing here? Is my solution loading the same working color space as the printer and then prepare my file to get a more accurate print?
Assuming that this was my fix I installed the ICC profile they sent me and when I went to "Load" that profile from the "Color Settings" dialog window and surfed to the folder I saved the profile in it doesn't show up. At the bottom of the "Load" dialog window there is a "Files of Type" drop down arrow and the only two file types listed are .CSF and .PSP. No .ICC file type there.
I have been charged with taking over a newsletter for our other shop. They print this on a web press. The lady there has told me that the pictures need to compensate for a 30% dot gain. Can I just apply the Dot Gain 30% profile in Photoshop and that takes care of it?
When I do this it darkens the picture on my screen considerably, is that just showing you what it will look like when printed?They also want the pics @ 85lpi and 300dpi, does this sound correct?This is my first foray into the web design world and the newsletter has looked pretty bad in the past and I think this may have something to do with it.
I'm having a very strange issue with colour management in Photoshop CS2 currently.
Photoshop seems to be calibrating all documents in a strange way on only *one* monitor. If I drag the file across to the other monitor the colour is completely different.
Of course it sounds like my monitors being off, however when dragging the file across monitors Photoshop slowly updates the colours for the next monitor. You can see it display the wrong colour at first, then correct it (hopefully that makes sense).
I'm currently working quite a lot with IPTC information from different images that are then uploaded to a web site and parsed with Perl's Image::IPTCInfo module. However, I've stumbled across some images that can't read by this module but the IPTC does show up in Photoshop.
Therefore, I went ahead and examined a "good" image file with the "identify" tool provided by ImageMagick and the following is a sample output (for the IPTC profile). I divide it into two sections for explanatory purposes. Section 1:

Im running PS CS on a PC and printing (mainly photographic images) with an Epson 1290 using a continuous ink system with Ilford paper. I have calibrated my monitor using a Spyder and have had the printer/paper/ink combination profiled. Despite all of that I am still having problems getting the printed image to match the screen. Quite often there appears to be an enhanced saturated red tint over the image. On some of the B&W images I have also been getting a red/magenta cast in my white highlights!.
I have downloaded new print drivers, I have also had my profile regenerated 3 times all with no effect. I have also just connected my printer to another computer and printed the same images from Elements employing the profile for the printer/paper/ink combo. One image came out more like it should with a reduced red cast but some of the others now appeared fine of both systems after printing them one after the other, i.e. my main system is now looking OK.
When I save to web, I get a lot of color loss and my images fade.

Also how can one change profile on the fly in Photoshop without having to convert?
I am running under XP SP3 with Photoshop CS3 version 10.0.1 with an Epson R2400. All of the profiles are present in windows/system32/spool/drivers/color, but are not listed in Photoshop's printer profile list. Everything was working fine as recently as 3-4 weeks ago, and everything is still working fine in CS2 which is also installed on this machine (3.7gig processor with 1gig ram) and several large hard drives).
I noticed the problem after installing SP3 today, but the problem remained after I restored a Ghost image created just prior to the SP3 update. Thus, it seems not to be caused by SP3. I have reinstalled SP3 based on that conclusion.
The only items on the printer profile list look like things that ship with Photoshop such as Apple RGB.
I can never find those lists of lens profiles to pick from, even when I go Filter>lens corrections. I remember doing this before but cant get in anywhere. When i try to go directly with lens profile downloader, this is all i get from a newly downloaded app.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently reprofiled everything. I know that the monitor profile is selected in Displays, and I am satisfied that it is being used correctly. I see the printer profile in (HD)/Library/ColorSync/Profiles, and I see the scanner profile in Users/usr/ColorSync/Profiles.
I am only certain that VueScan itself will use these. When I use the Safari File>Print dialog windows, I don't see any indication that it knows about the printer icc in the Color Matching window. Same with the Preview File> Print dialog Color Matching windows. The generated monitor profile is in there for some strange reason, though.
In Photoshop CS5 Print , the PS Manages Colors window does not show the new profile.In Epson Scan/ColorSync there is no new scanner profile identified by its actual name.I haven't looked in Elements 10, why bother?I have the VueScan Bible by Steinhoff, which provides a completely uninformative guide to profiling. The website shown in his book jacket is in German with no English version, and I don't see any link for questions anyway.Hamrick gets irritable when you ask him anything that questions his software. He never answered the last time.
I am going to presume that only VueScan will call the generated profiles. You set the paths in VueScan, so I suppose that means that only VueScan will see them. I guess this means that you have to buy one of the profiling apps to make system wide profiles.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've tried saving images with sRGB color profile, Adobe RGB, and even NO color profile.
While each test has yielded various saturation levels (sRGB seems more saturated than Adobe RGB), the one single constant in all of them is that IE displays more (too?) colorful images than FF.
I understand that IE doesn't color manage while FF does, but that hardly explains the results I'm getting. If I don't color manage a document, shouldn't it display the same way in IE and FF? And how to explain that the sRGB profile documents are more saturated in IE than the Adobe RGB ones, if IE cannot read color profiles? And why does FF display *both* sRGB and Adobe RGB as less saturated than these same images in IE?
I have a Nikon D7000. Most of the pictures I make are RAWs (NEF). I work often with my own camera-profiles (landscape, vivid, portrait, etc.). One of these profiles is black & white with a touch of sepia. Now, when I open it with PS, the picture is coloured, not B/W. And I can´t find a way how to convert it exactly to the same JPG or TIF like the RAW picture. In the PS-RAW-menue there are only the standard profiles, not mine. Is there a possibility to load my profiles?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've somehow managed to completely mess up my color profiles in Photoshop CS5. What a total Gormlops I am.
1 - ACR displays colours from RAW files as lifeless and dull compared to JPEG. I've searched countless forums and I'm lead to understand that RAW files don't include the 'in-camera' processing that we see on the JPEGS. What I don't understand is that ACR used to display the colors on my RAW files exactly like it did with JPEG files so although I understand the difference in the way ACR handles RAW vs JPEG why has this only become noticeable in the last few months? I've had this installation of CS5 for almost 2 years and the problem crept in only recently.
2 - Proof Colors Confusion
I mostly work on the web and rarely need to print. Round about the same time the above problem reared it's ugly head I also started having issues with how many graphics colours looked in CS5. I realized that half of the time I was working with 'Proof Colours' switched off which made my colours really intense (something to do with gamma).
I checked my 'Proof Setup' and switched it to Internet sRGB seeing as I mostly work with web graphics and photos. I then hit Ctrl+Y to switch on Proof Colours and now I see the colours as they really are.
My question for this is twofold - Am I correct to be working in sRGB and is there ar way to have 'Proof Colours' always switched on so that I only EVER see the 'actual' colours that others will see when I publish my files to the web?
These two issues arose at the same time and are linked. I tried installing a demo of CS6 in the hopes it would set me back to where I used to be but alas nothing changed.
I am using PS CS4 and I am in CMYK, proof setup is working CMYK and the color settings I am using is U.S Web Coated (SWOP) v2.
If I slect a color which is 100% black (greyscale) which is 0 C, 0 M, 0 Y, 100 K my color picker comes out at a muddy grey with a touch of red.
Why is this? Otherwise I have selected 100, 100, 100, 100 and this is 100% black for CMYK
Should I not worry about this?
My output is CYMK digital print
I have several ICC profiles installed in the Colorsync>Profiles folder. They are QTR ICC profles for B+W printing. CS5 sees these profiles when assining custom profle for soft profing and when choosing a profile for printing.
CS6 finds the profles in the pulldown window only when soft profing. They are missing from the list of profiles in the printing menu. If CS5 can find them why not CS6. Are hey in a diferent location?
After re-downloading Adobe Raw 5.2 and running the CameraProfiles.exe program and restarting my system I still cannot find any camera profiles under Camera Calibration other than the standard ones in either Lightroom or Camera Raw. I click the dropdown menu in Raw and click Load Settings, but cannot find any camera specific settings. I am running Photoshop CS4 and want to set it up for my new Canon 5D Mark II?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to learn how to use Photoshop CS4 and to print images. I have consulted several books, web sites, manuals, etc. and one of the things I realize I need to do is to learn how to relate the image on my screen with the print that comes off my printer.
I'm using a Spyder 3 Pro monitor calibration device, I have adjusted the color settings in Photoshop, I have downloaded ICC profiles off the web (I'm having trouble installing them) etc., etc. etc.
And at the end of all this, the prints I created when I was 'winging it', are far superior to what I'm printing after all these adjustments. My instinct is telling me that its still worth trying to follow these instructions and that it will all come together at some point but the variables seem endless. Can anyone send me to a clearly written site, source?
How do you uninstall ICC color profiles?
I can install ICC color profiles by right clicking on the profile and selecting "Install" but there seems to be no way to uninstall a profile.
Does setting the profiles under colour settings alter end image when printed on a printing press or is it just how the colours are viewed on screen?
If I change a profile that is embedded to the one I want will it make any difference to the way the colours print (from the way it printed with the previous profile)?
I was saving a picture into JPG format, and I made sure that i converted it to SRGP (that long name thing) but when I put it in dreamweaver, the color profile wasnt working, and the colors of the picture were dull. I was sure that it had an Adobe 1998 profile when I designed it, and I converted it at the end to sRGP IEC61966-2.1, and it still was dull. I used to be able to see color profiles in dreamweaver..
