Adding Custom Profile under Proof Setup

In prior versions of PS, if I added a custom profile under Proof Setup, it would be pinned to the Proof Setup menu (along with the default profiles). That doesn't appear to happen in PS CS6.
Is there a specific place I need to save the custom Proof profiles to so that they will appear in the menu?

I have had no issues with that and the location for me is
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Proofing/
Where exactly have you saved the file to?
Could you provide a screenshot?

Custom cmyk profile not in proof setup

Working with Blurb.com Printer Profile CMYK named Blurb_IC_Profile.ICC
Opened profile and saved in Rose/AppData/Local/Adobe/Profile
Cannot bring it up in soft proof setup. Also when I close CS5 and reopen the profile is no longer in that location.
I tried to see if the profile would work with changing the cmyk setting in the color settings under edit.
CS5 menu comes up and states not a good working cmyk profile and does not load it.
From what I have read on the Blurb forums people have downloaded this profile and it works. No replies
for 2011, last was 2010.
I wanted to know if there is a special way to load this profile that I'm not aware of as I checked several photoshop sites
to ensure this was the right spot to put the profile in.
I am using Srgb setting for the images and now want to soft proof them in cmyk before sending up to the Blurb they use
4 color press Hp printers.
Thanks
Rose

If you look closely at the image that states blurb profile locked – there is a little golden image of a lock next to the blurb profile and it is locked – similar to what
we see when we open a image for the first time and there is a lock (layer background) so you double click it and then background layer becomes “o” .
I followed your image.png and your profile too. I have watched their video 3 or 4 times. I watched a color management
color flow for an hour in Blurb. But the one hour video is using a Mac instead of Windows and the profile was already
installed on the mac but they showed the process on the mac on where to place it – not windows.
I am doing everything that is shown for windows and where you told me to input the blurb profile,
However, when I close and reopen photoshop I do not see a blurb profile in proof setup.\
The 1 hour color management video shows that the profile is named Blurb.icc but it is not in my
setup for custom proof. That video is done with a Mac and different placement folders.
I can only assume that Blurb.com profile needs to be changed or updated.
I sent emails to them today again and hope to see some answers monday.
There showing a 32 bit profile video instead of 64 bit but you did help me to get the profile in the right spot. It is a very short
video for the download process. two screens to be exact.
They don’t have a phone number or I would call them personally. I have sent emails with pictures today.
Thank you

Add RADIUS attributes under "Group Setup" in ACS 4.2

Hi Security Experts,
I need to add RADIUS attributes for a custom vendor under "Group Setup" page in ACS 4.2. As of now, I see Cisco Aironet RADIUS Attributes,
IETF RADIUS Attributes etc in "Group Setup" page. How can I make sure that the RADIUS attributes for a vendor also appear on that page?
PS: I rate useful posts
Thanks,
Kashish

Under "Interface" you can enable which RADIUS-Attributes you want to display. Probably there's just one checkmark missing for your vendor.
The Options for RADIUS are described here:

Soft Proofing: View Proof Setup Custom: Profile Disappears when Re-opened

Photoshop CS6 on Mac
Edit an image file and get it to where I like on the monitor
Duplicate the file and set the new file to the profile for the printer which will be used, by using View > Proof Setup > Custom and setting an imported printer profile for the printing company that I use.
As soon as you do that, the file looks like crap, so...
Edit the soft proof file to get it to where it looks good again.
Save off the file for the printer and also save the new PSD file.
Close the PSD file.
Reopen the new (soft proofed) PSD file.
Still looks good, but.... when you check View > Proof Setup it's now generally set to Custom: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 instead of to the imported printer profile which was set previously. WHY???? Where did the printer profile go? Is it supposed to do this?
If I then reset View > Proof Setup to the correct printer profile, the image goes to crap again.
Is this me doing something wrong, or is the PSD file not properly remembering the printer profile, or... what's going on here?
Thanks much!

None of what you write makes any sense whatsoever to me, sorry.
Let's start by using correct terminology. For the last time, you are not "importing" any freaking profile. Wrap your head around that once and for all, please.
Let me try once again, totally disregarding the scenarios you were unsuccessfully attempting to describe above. Forget all that mumbo jumbo for now, please.
You have not mentioned what your working space is, so let's assume it's Adobe RGB.
You have finished editing an image, so now you have an AdobeRGB-tagged image. Fine.
Now you want to soft proof it to see what it will look like in that FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper printer in Anchorage. (Made up names of course.)
So you make a duplicate COPY of your finished image file named BabyPictForPrint.psd. You're still in Adobe RGB, of course. You put the original away in a safe and forget about it—forever. That's like your negative in film days.
Now you soft proof the BabyPictForPrint.psd COPY by using the infamous FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper.icc profile the outfit in Alaska sent you.
When you soft proof it with that Alaska profile, you have not imported anything. Photoshop is simply using the profile you pointed it to to show you in your monitor what it would look like. Your pixels so far are untouched, yet yo see your image "die" before your very eyes. Ouch! Now you need to compensate for the effect of printing under those proposed conditions, so you set about the task of editing the copy accordingly. Remember, you're still in Adobe RGB.
Once you have the copy just the way you like it, YOU SAVE ALL YOUR CHANGES in that copy. Now you have a fully edited image file in the Adobe RGB space but tweaked to look fine when printed in the FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper printer.
At that point you are done! Finished!
Now you are faced with two choices:
A) Sending the finished, saved ADOBE RGB COPY to your printer if you consider him capable of knowing what he's doing. (If you think he does not know his business, look for another printer). Or…
B) Assume you're dealing with a moron on the other end who wants the image CONVERTED to his custom FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper.icc. If that is the case, then open your COPY in Photoshop, go to the Edit menu > CONVERT to Profile… and convert the copy to the infamous FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper.icc profile. It's critical to use CONVERT TO Profile, not "Assign Profile"!
At that point, under scenario B), you do not EVER want to return to Proof View / Soft Proof mode, ever, EVER again, because then you would be applying the profile doubly and you'd see your image die before your eyes once again, and if you edited it you'd have real elephant poop!
Hope that helps.

Is it possible and how to create bright preview mode for a custom Proof Setup

You know how there is Proof Setup preview modes under the View menu. Can I create a custom preview mode so that when I choose it and press Ctrl + y it shows the image very bright without changing it.
I need this because I want to see and edit more details in the dark areas which I may not be seeing on my monitor or room lighting conditions and thus to create images with more rich and dynamic shading in the darks so when viewed on brighter monitors or when levels are eventually changed the darks reveal nice shading instead of flat black.
I'm looking for per image solution that doesn't affect other images or applications like using global gamma.
I'll greatly appreciate your help

That's what I use Adjustment layers but they are a big pain because the color picker can't disregard them. So every time I want ot use the color picker I have to hide the adjustment layer and then when I paint I have to enable it again. I want a color picker that picks from all but not the adjustment layer. This makes this workflow impossible. I need this for painting artworks from scratch.
There are no two equal monitors out there and some are quite off, so I want to create artworks that look as good as possible on all kinds of monitor including miscalabrated ones.These are samples to sell artwork. Not only that but the artwork often is edited from other designers not by brush repainting but using global adjustments like levels. And I don't want to use 32 bit workflows. What I'm asking will serve the purpose perfectly.
I feel that since PS pulls the preview information from profiles that probably reside in files somewhere, I can modify a copy of a profile and I was hoping if someone here knows more details about this and helps.
Thanks anyway

Custom Proof setup script issue

Hey all, I'm writing some code here that applies a specific icc profile via the View>Proof Setup>Custom > Device to Simulate: dialogue. Forgive me for the lengthy post, I'm just trying to figure out if I've hit a software bug here or maybe my code is just lacking. At any rate, here's the rundown:
The reason I am writing this is because I'm in a situation where I have hundreds (literally) of different .icc profiles to load at any given time, but if I load them all in at once, then if I try to view the list of .icc profiles, it takes a long time for PS to build that list. So what I've devised is to use the name of the file in order to copy the necessary .icc over from where it lives to the local machine. Currently this works like a charm. The script opens the file, finds the .icc and copies it over to the right directory for PS to be able to read it. No problems there. The problem comes in with refreshing that list....
This is where it gets tricky for me, to help illustrate, I've added a pic here of the file menu item i'm referring to, and the resulting sub-menu in question
So just to be clear, the problem is with the "CPC Menu" when I copy files over, they appear just fine, but the hitch is that they are invisible to PS until I call the CPC>Device to Simulate list manually.
If I try to assign the .icc file using a script, it will work if the .icc has already been seen by literally showing the Device to Simulate list, but until that list has been manually updated, assigning the .icc profile will throw an error and not apply the .icc profle.
Hopefully this makes sense, I'm hoping that there's some sort of full app refresh command that will force the list to be rebuilt. A couple things to note is that I've tried the app.Refresh() command, and that hasn't helped at all, it seems to only refresh the graphic components as opposed to lists. Another thing I found to be interesting is that the CPC>Device to Simulate list is rebuilt when you create a new document, but I run into the same problem if I have the script make a new document after copying the .icc over but before trying to apply it. Is this a known bug or is there any way I can get some help with this? I can't really post the code, but I don't think the code is the problem here anyhow. At best I could post some stripped down code but I'm hoping someone from Adobe might see this and know exactly what sort of wall I'm hitting. Thanks in advance!

You need a color profiling system (hardware/software) to create ICC profiles. Another alternative is to use a service like Chromix. There are several other service companies on the internet as well.

Which proof setup profile is correct?

Hi,
I've found very conflicting answers to this question in the forums on this site:
When saving for web and devices, is it best to set your View-->Proof Setup to Macintosh RGB, Windows RGB, or Minotor RGB and color correct from there?
Thanks!

All those settings do is let you view the image in that color setting. Most computers in the world are Windows so I leave it on Windows. Sometimes I check to see how it looks on Mac compared to windows I never worry about monitor profile because that is only pertains to my computer and nobody else.
As far as Minotor RGB thats a bit too bullish for me.

How do I get my .csf file setting to show up in the Convert to Profile or Proof as menu choices?

I received specific menu choices for Color Settings from a commercial printer I use. I went to Edit<Color Settings and saved them as a .csf file in User/Library/Applications Support/Adobe/Color/Settings. I named the .csf file after the printer. When I go back into Edit<Color Settings and open the Settings menu I am able to choose the settings I saved from the list of settings. Now I open an image in PhotoShop and go to Edit<Convert to Profile. In the dialog box I open the Profile menu, but the settings I saved in Edit<Color Setting are not one of the Profile choices. Am I confusing Setting and Profiles? How do I Convert an image file to the setting given me by the printer? I also wanted to proof as per the printer's settings. When I go to View<Proof setup<Custom I can choose Working CMYK Web Coated SWOP 2006 Grade 3 Paper, which is generally the profile this printer is using. But I can't choice my specific color settings saved under the printer's that I previously saved in Edit<Color Settings. In the Proof Setup dialog box when I press the load button I can navigate to the Settings folder where my .csf file is saved, but it is greyed-out so I can't choose it. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Please advise/help. Thank you.

"Am I confusing Setting and Profiles?"
Yes. A Color Settings File (CSF) will contain values for all the controls in the Color Settings dialog. One of these controls specifies the profile to be used for the CMYK Working Space. That profile will be used by default when you create a new CMYK document or convert an RGB (or some other colour space) document to CMYK.
The profile, not the CSF, will be at the top of the list of CMYK options in the Convert to Profile dialog, as "Working CMYK - <name of your CMYK profile>". However, you may want to skip that dialog and instead do Image > Mode > CMYK, which will simply raise a prompt asking you whether to proceed with the conversion to your CMYK Working Space profile.
In View > Proof Setup menu, item "Working CMYK" also will use the profile that's specified in Color Settings, then "Custom..." in the same menu will give access to options to simulate paper and black ink.

Custom profile not appearing in "Devices to simulate"

I've downloaded a custom printer/paper profile from Dry Creek Photo for my local Costco. I've saved the .icc profile to to the Users\[user name]\Library\ColorSync\Profiles folder. However, when I try to soft proof using View > Proof Setup > Custom, I cannot find the newly installed file under the "Devices to Simulate" window. Have I missed a step?

Did you relaunch Photoshop or rebooted your Mac after the installation?
Also be mindful of the fact that profiles have two names: an external one which you see in the Finder when you look at the profile icon, and an internal one, which is what shows in Photoshop. If the two names are not identical, you need to look in the list a little more carefully, or ask Dry Creek what the internal name of their profile is.

Issue in Adding Custom Status Defnition for a resource object

Hi,
We have installed OIM and patch it to 9.102. We have created one custom resource object (flat file connector) for reconciliation. As part of requirement we need to define three status for this resource object - Enabled, Suspended and Disabled. As Enabled and Disabled status are available OOTB, i have added 'Suspended' status under the Status Definition in resource object. Now the issue is that if we are passing reconcile user status to either Enabled or Disabled, the status is changing fine on Linked user resource object. But if the status passed as 'Suspended' the resource account status of linked user (OIM) is not changed.
We have mapped the resource side Status attribute to OIM_OBJECT_STATUS under process definition. I also made the entry 'Suspended' in 'Lookup.Object Object Status' lookup to see if any help, but no luck.
The 'Suspended' status is successfully added in OST table against the object key and on manually updating the status key against the resource object it is reflecting 'Suspended' status through admin console. User-->Resource Profile
Does anyone have any clue if the requirement is correct (adding a custom object status) and so, where i am going wrong. Thanks in advance.

A quick doubt..If i have written down a process task and calling this on completion of 'Reconciliation Update Received' and in this process task , a adapter is attached which is updating the resource account status (ost_status) on the basis of some custom attributes. This task is working fine and updating the status. But the issue is that once this task is complete, the mapping in Process definition (loginDisabled <MetaDirectory> --> OIM_OBJECT_STATUS) overrides the status.
Per my understanding the flow is going like this-->
1. Reconciliation run
2. Event Linked
3. Reconciliation Update Received
4. Call The custom Task --> Update the OST Status
5. Update the OST Status per the mapping OIM_OBJECT_STATUS.
Is there any way we can implement that the status update in (5) occurs before (4) so that my custom task status can override the (5) as per my business requirement.

Spyder4Pro in Photoshop CS5 - which proof setup?

Hello
I just ran Spyder4Pro calibration on my monitor for the first time. I am using a PC.
Monitor Specs:
Dell SP2309W
2048*1152 Pixel Resolution 23 LCD Display
VGA,DVI,HDMI connectivities
on NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460
Photoshop CS5 Extended
I have my monitor Brightness set to 90 and Contrast set to 79.
After I ran the calibration, I titled the profile June2012
Now when I open an image in Photoshop, for the most correct coloring, do I set the Proof Setup to:
-- Custom: sRGB Display Profile with display hardware configuration data derived from calibration
OR
-- Custom: June2012 (as of now, this is what images are opening up as automatically in Photoshop)
OR
-- Custom: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
OR
-- Custom: Document Profile - sRGB IEC61966-2.1
(Or another option?)
And then if I want to preview how it will be viewed online when I save my photo for web use, which profile can I preview it in?
THANKS!!

"Then the only time I will change it is when I want to preview it for a specific printer's profile I need to use. Correct?"
Pretty much, and even then, it's you really need to see a few actual prints so you get an idea of how accurate the soft proofing is or isn't. It depends on both the profile and the media.
"So as of now, this is what I'm keeping it at...
Photoshop-->Edit-->Color Settings
It is set to: sRGB IEC61966-2.1"
A good place to start
"When I open an individual file, I go to
View --> ProofSetup
It is set to Internet Standard RGB (sRGB)"
Well, if your file is already IN sRGB, it's kinda redundant to use Proof Setup as you're already seeing your file as it's going to be - that being sRGB. You only need to use Proof Setup when you're going to print your file, and even then, you often don't really have to use it. Honestly, it sounds like someone told you you needed to use this all the time or the world would come to an end. Just have fun working in Photoshop and don't worry about it unless you come across a problems down the line.
Is that OK now?

Convert to Profile & Soft Proofing.

Hello,
Apologies if this has been asked and answered. Some answers on soft proofing searched on the forums helped, but didn't hit the nail on the head.
I'm grateful for ideas, instruction, pointers.
I. Per the instructions of the printer who's printing my work, I've converted my image profiles to Dot Gain 20%. I would like to make sure that what I'm seeing on my screen will a) be a close match to what she (the woman printing the work) will see on her screen; and b) give me a sense of how the printer (Espson Stylist Pro 4800) will interpret and print the work. It makes sense to me that I should change my Proof Setup to Dot Gain 20%, no? Do I have this wrong?
II. I also need to make a set of jpegs that will be seen on a variety of screens, each of a different make and calibration. These jpegs need to be as convincing a match to the print as possible, with allowances, of course being made for paper, ink, etc. The match has to be close. Is there a standard for softproofing that will allow me to see what's likely to appear on a given screen. A tall order, I know. Wondering if I should just inform the viewers to view the jpegs with their monitors set to a certain color profile--or if I should send them a monitor profile along with the jpegs.
Again, I'm grateful for ideas.
Best-
Gear: iMac 27"; Native Gamma 2.2; CS6.

I've converted my image profiles to Dot Gain 20%. I would like to make sure that what I'm seeing on my screen will a) be a close match to what she (the woman printing the work) will see on her screen
if YOUR monitor profile is proper, Photoshop is 'accurately' displaying your image
to see your image the same, SHE (or anyone) will need to apply your source profile and also have a proper monitor profile
give me a sense of how the printer (Espson Stylist Pro 4800) will interpret and print the work. It makes sense to me that I should change my Proof Setup to Dot Gain 20%, no? Do I have this wrong?
Gernot offers a good approach (what I would recommend):
"Leave images in sRGB (Working Space sRGB)
Modify by PhS until the appearance is nice
In Soft Proof choose your PP"
in other words, "Soft Proofing" (View> Proof Setup> Custom: Device to Simulate: the specific Epson profile) -- it doesn't make much sense to Soft Proof source DotGain20% to device DotGain20%
my question to her would be: is Dot Gain 20% the actual Epson Print Space (or does she use a specific printer-paper-ink profile that you can Soft Proof on your 'calibrated' monitor)
if she doesn't do any conversions to your DotGain20 file (it is the Print Space), then Photoshop is showing you the contract proof on your monitor when you open it (is my opinion)
I also need to make a set of jpegs that will be seen on a variety of screens, each of a different make and calibration. These jpegs need to be as convincing a match to the print as possible
here, i would Convert to sRGB and embed the sRGB profile -- short answer here -- that is the best you can do

Lightroom camera custom profiles

how do i remove camera custom profiles from the camera profile menu in lightroom, these are profiles i have made and added to the existing profile already loaded in the menu?
Kev

Yes, it won't work if you put them in a folder called Shared. It's looking in this location: Macintosh HD / Users / [your username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / CameraRaw / CameraProfiles /
There should be a Library folder under your username - I've never heard of a Mac install without one (i.e. as far as I know, the Mac OS won't work). It's a hidden folder though.

"500 internal server error" after adding custom fields to Address page

I need to display custom fields on the "Addresses" and the "Personal Data" pages. For that, we added custom CI_INCLUDE fields in both PA0006 and PA0002 tables as per instructions below
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/profile/essPersonalInformationUIenhancementwithoutmodification&focusedCommentId=28278867
we also extended the Badi HRPAD00INFTYUI
custom fields show up OK in page "Personal Data". However when trying to browse to page "Addresses"
we get the following error:
"500 internal server error - com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.context.ContextException: MappedNodeInfo(DetailView.SelectedInfotype): unknown child node Area8 ".
"Area8" is one of the custom fields we added in PA0006 (Address infotype).
any idea what is wrong? maybe Badi HRPAD00INFTYUI cannot handle 2 infotypes in the same time?
T.

Hi Sasu,
Its clearly saying contect binding error. Have you mapped correctly from FcComponent to VcComponents.
FcCompoenets for Model logic.
Check the mappings correctly.
If it is complete custom or new field then there will be could of steps.
1) Reimport the model
2) map new field to FcComponent
3) Bind new Fields from Fc to Vc

CRM 7.0 / IS-U: adding custom fields to Business agreement for replication

Hello Experts!
We're working on replication of custom fields from IS-U to CRM 7.0.
Can you help me with clarification of my understanding of these questions..?
1) CRM/IS-U mapping tables for buag_main:
Business Agreement(BUAG_MAIN) is a BO in CRM that corresponds to CRM table CRMM_BUAG and to Contract account in IS-U table FKKVKP.
Table FKKVKP were enhanced with some z-fields,
so we are going to enhance corresponding CRM table CRMM_BUAG (or CRMM_BUAG_H) with that new fields..
But we see that these CRM and IS-U tables have far not the same field structures..
So, the question: Which crm and is-u tables i should look, enhance and replicate for Business agreement?
2) Access to Business agreement with possibility to add custom field:
I couldn't find in Web UI where i can directly edit profile of Business Agreement..
I've found just access to assignment block "Business agreement" on Account's profile overview page..(Role ServicePRO; Account details).
There I used AET to add custom field..but I faced with problem when the 1st popup appeared: there was no enhanced object "Business Agreement"..
Also in role "Utilities IC Agent" i've found "business agreement" profile but there I don't see buttons for adding custom fields..
So, the question is: Where I can access Business agreement profile to enhance it with custom fields for replication with IS-U?
3) CRM/IS-U data exchange functions:
I tend to use tcode CRMC_BUT_CALL_FU:
for CRM inbound event of BUAG object - FM CRM_BUAG_MWX_PROCESS_EXT_STRUC..(as template).
Question: Am I right that it fits my requirement to replicate custom fields from IS-U to CRM?
Please tell me if you need more information..
Looking forward to your answers.
Thank you a lot in advance!
Kind regards,
Evgenia

Hi Gobi,
Thank you for advice. But:
I've created fields not by using AET - I used documentation that Nicolas suggested me above.
I've enhanced tables and structures that were mentioned there with my z-fields for both sides (CRM and ERP).
Also I looked CRMC_BUT_CALL_FU for CRM Inbound BUAG_MAIN - corresponding standard FMs are marked for call.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
BR,
Evgenia
