Photoshop :: White Is Not White Any More In PT, What Gives?
May 1, 2007
I've got PS open and created a simple color pattern. What you see on the left is what I'm really looking at on the monitor. PS "says" that it is white, but if I use a separate color picker, it shows it as FFFFD8. If I take a screen shot, as here, it also shows it bad. But if I just save the document as a JPG and open that up with picture and fax viewer, I see what is on the right side, normal. White is white and grey is grey. If I send that to another person, he sees it good as well. But PS shows it bad to me.
My "Proof Setup" is set to "Working CMYK" as always. And the only way I can get PS to actually show things right, is to change the Proof Setup to "Monitor RGB". Which I've never had to do before.
I'm guessing PS is having a problem talking to my monitor, or getting something wrong, I don't know. I aught to be able to use the Working CMYK Proof like everybody else, I've never had to change it to Monitor RGB to get it looking right. Even Paintbrush shows things right.

I have a multilayered psd file. All layers should remain opaque except the black to white gradient layer where I need the white to be transparent. So that when I place the final psd on top of a block of solid colour in Indesign the gradient shows the background colour through where the black fades off.

Is there some kind of tweak I can do so that when I scan in full color, the white paper scans as white, not light blue or yellow?

I'm using PSE8. I was using Filter>Render>Clouds and it was working for me. I must have done something because the clouds that are rendered are black & white not Blue and white. My photo is of course a color image. How I can correct this or what I need to do to get back to the default setting that will render blue & white instead of black and white?

I need to change all of the pure white in a picture to a very slight offwhite, since a program I'm using interperates pure white as clear.
Is there any way to select all of a certain color in a selected region and turn it offwhite?

I installed Photoshop CS4 and am using a Samsung flat panel monitor. I do web design and print design. Here is the problem: Web design:Color profile is set to Monitor ColorProof color is set to Monito RGBProof Colors is checkedWhen I save image through Save For Web,
it looks fine in the preview box but in some browsers it has blue tint (even the white color now looks blue)I tried embedding the monitor coor profile into the exported JPEG and tried converting to sRGB and it always is a problem Print design:When I make a new CMYK document 300dpi the white now has a yellow tint.
I tried to paint the entire image white (and the foreground color is clearly white) then go with the eyedropper it says its fff6db (yellowish)Proof Color: working CMYKCMYK Color: US Web Coated (SWOP) v2Color Managment Policies are all off What I want is an explanation of how I can make sure that the colors are correct on my screen such that what I see on the monitor is exactly what everyone will see on their browsers.
And that there are no color shifts. I had version 6 at work and its fine, when I converted from RGB to CMYK the colors just got a little washed out but the whites remained white.

I would like to draw parts in 3d view which look very basic, i.e. out of a book.
Example:
white block with black lines so you can see it is 3d.background should also be white.
How do i set autocad (2012/2013) to do this. I would like the model space to be the same and not just for printing.

I am using a pdf underlay to trace over and whenever the crosshair or pickbox enters a white area it does not shift color to black to remain visible. This leaves me picking randomly trying to guess where the crosshair or pickbox is. If I change the 3dconfig to disable hardware acceleration, the color shifts, but the pdf is whited out. Not to mention the fact that by disabling hardware acceleration, I'm wasting the expensive video card on the machine. Is there a workaround? updated driver? service pack?

Okay so I'm trying to take the white background off of a picture using the select a color on white, but it takes out a lot or the fur and eyes(it's a picture of a cartoon cat) How can I remove the areas of can from the selection without removing the pieces of cat too.
It's creative commons, so I guess I can post screen shots...
The cat is from [URL]...
A general idea of the selected area
What happens when I take out the selected area
So how can I take the pieces of the cat out of the selected area so when I try to delete the background I don't get an invisible cat?

know of a macro available that will search a document for any form of white fill (rgb, cmy,cmyk,greyscale, etc) and if it finds any of those colors, it will automatically change those white fills to a Pantone White Spot Color?
I'm aware on the Oberon Color Replacer, but I'd like a macro that is more simple and will do all of this with a click of a button or keyboard shortcut.

I created a logo and then opened it as a layer so that I can make a website header image. It is shown here [URL] and as you can see the background is an off-white colour. It is probably unnoticeable to many, but I would prefer to get it right. How can I make the background a pure white so that it blends in with the white of the wordpress theme?

I've got CS2 at home on the PC. When I open photoshop or any document, the black and white are black and a dark cream color on my monitor. There is no white at all in the color areas and white seems to show as this cream color everywhere - affecting how I view images. However, when I print the white is white. Have tried changing around color settings.

I wanted to make a decal to place on the acrylic window of my PC. I found the perfect picture, which is in black and white. For it to look right though, I need to switch the black to white, and vice versa. Is there a way with Photoshop to automatically switch these, instead of having to manually switch them.

I made a simple logo in pcs5 using RGB saving as jpeg then uploading into blog. The white has a grey hue. I calibrated my mac and checked my color setting in photoshop. I tried CMYK and saving for web and other devices. I did research online and I have had no luck. I even opened another logo, from a different blog, that has a simular setup to mine, into pcs5, saved it and uploaded to the blog to check and it too was greyish. The image is RGB white and looks completely white in preview and pcs5. I just uploaded the image here and it looks okay. Looking at it from an angle and I can see the shadow.

I am using Photoshop CS4 on a new ultrabook running Windows 8.  My video card is up to date. However, on this computer I cannot get the background to show up white. It shows up off-white or creamy.   I thought it might be the screen, but the images print with the creamy color.  I reset the color picker to 255-255-255, and also reset my preferences.

White balance. Shooting With my Canon 5D, shooting RAW, I choose Auto White balance. At the end I shoot a Gray-Card with the same Lighting that I had. Later I open the image with the Gray-Card inside the camera raw, and I select it with the white balance tool. then I get the perfect White Balance. I personally like the Gray-Card which has from very light gray to very dark gray. I'm still using Photoshop CS5. Now there are many products out there such as Color Checker. How I can get better color Balance or Color Correction using those 3rd party products. Also My Monitor is calibrated using Data Color spydare 3Elite.

Okay, so my brushes are always white; that's the problem. I've had CS3 for a bit now; I've tried uninstalling it and then reinstalling it, just trying to 'fix' it's components, and then when CS4 came out, I'm testing that out now, but it's STILL the same problem.

I have plain old Photoshop CS and recently when I opened it to use it all my white went tan/brown almost like a light sepia toning. I've tried changing the color preferences to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions how to get white to be white again?
