Apple Photobooks and Prints Color Space? - Aperture

Does apple use Adobe RGB or sRGB to print the photobooks and prints via Aperture? Also what is the perfered ppi setting?
I am looking for a professional Adobe RGB printer with a printer specific ppi setting that I can order from via Aperture. If anybody knows these setting for Apple or another printer please let me know!!!
Thank you!

Can I suggest you buy Philip Andrews book, Advanced Photoshop Elements 10. he explains colour spaces and much much more very clearly and exactly what can be done with 16 bit files and what you then have to change to 8 bit to accomplish. He's written basic and advanced guides for Elements since day one. Usually available from Amazon for under £20.

Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.

Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.?

I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

Hi All,
I have read the Adobe Photoshop CS3 SDK and found Color Space Suite which will color conversion, but i can't able to find sample code.
Can anyone guide how to convert color? or any sample?

PSE 10 as external editor for Aperture 3 - 8-bit TIFF and what color space?

Hi all,
I'm taking the plunge and trying PSE 10 as my external editor for Aperture 3. I understand that I need to export as 8-bit TIFF files (not 16) because PSE can't do certain things with 16-bit files. Is that right? Should I specify a color space in Aperture or leave it as "no profile selected"? (I don't know much about color spaces; I'm not a pro.) I print on an Epson RX580 Stylus Photo printer, if that matters.
I'll be grateful for any help and advice. Thanks.

Aperture, Display and Printer Color Match/Profile Calibration ?

I need to calibrate my HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m Printer to match what I see on my Acer X223w 22 inch display when using Aperture 3 and Photoshop CS5
The colors are pretty close to matching but each photo I print comes out deeper in color ( shadows and highlights are off )
I have the Acer display Color Profile set to Adobe RGB 1998, All photos shot with my Nikon D5000 in RAW format and Color Profile Adobe RGB 1998,
Aperture 3.03 Proofing Profile Adobe RGB 1998 and when I print a photo I set HP Color Matching / ColorSync to Adobe RGB 1998
I've been using Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy II PP-201 for prints but can't find a profile for it to add to my HP Printer.
If I did find a profile how would I install it so it would show up in the drop down list of paper types ?

Well I'm pretty amazed that the prints are just slightly off, with all the things you're doing wrong in color management.
First off, you don't seem to know the difference between a device profile and a working space (i.e. 'synthetic' profiles), since you assigned AdobeRGB to both your monitor and printer. You should profile your printer and display with special hardware, like the X-Rite Colormunki. This will generate a profile, that will translate how color should look theoretically (by the assigned working space e.g. AdobeRGB), to how they will look on the hardware.
Secondly, RAW-images do not have a color profile! The setting in the camera only applies to in-camera JPEGs. RAW files only contain the voltages the CCD measured, this has to be translated into in image later.
Thirdly, softproofing in AdobeRGB almost never makes any sense. It doesn't make any sense if your are softproofing in AdobeRGB if you want to match screen to print. Your softproofing profile should be the profile that is specific for your printer and paper combination. The only synthetic profile that makes sense to softproof to is sRGB, since that is the colorspace used on the web. And even that is disputable since 99.9% of web user do not have a calibrated/profiled monitor.
Fourthly, Adding a color profile will not add a paper type to the drop down list in the printer driver. These are hard-coded in the printer driver and basically determine the amount of ink being placed on the paper.
So I'd suggest at this point to fetch yourself a copy of 'Real World Color Management' by Bruce Fraser (ISBN 9780321267221) and read it from the front to the back before you again embark on the path of color management.

D300 and RAW color in Aperture 2

I just got my new D300, and ran it through its first shoot Saturday. When I went to import into Aperture 2, the processed files were nasty washed versions of their NEF parents. I opened Capture NX and all of the color was there in the NEF file. I opened Lightroom, and everything looked fine, rich saturated images. In Aperture the color was all washed out.
The only thing I can think of is that Aperture is running in a different color space than sRGB, and whatever the color space that the program is working in is washing the NEF files color away. But I couldn't find a menu setting for color space, so I don't know if that's true. Or the program imposes limits on crazy color saturation (no program should ever do this).
Any ideas? Anyone else experiencing this? I finished the job in Lightroom without a problem (great color tools, I was genuinely impressed), so I'm wondering if my Aperture days are numbered.

I am having exactly the opposite problem here and it is most confusing!
I normally shoot RAW and I had been planning to use Aperture as my RAW conversion tool of choice when I noticed that Aperture does not deal properly with Chromatic Aberration on files from my Nikon D300. (I posted on this on the forum and it was interesting that we did not hear back from Appple on this).
So today I shot JPEG's for a quick edit to file to the client tonight and all the images are over saturated! I pulled up the same file on the same screen in Photoshop, put them side by side and the image looks fine in PS and rubbish in Aperture! I checked the image in Capture NX and also in Preview - all the colour match apart from in Aperture. What is going on? Aperture seems to have no colour management option as part of its workflow. I have checked the "preferences" and there is nothing there - I have no control over my image! Its a shocker! What do I do?
Again, if Apple are really planning to pitch this software at the pro market, they need to do some serious work on their colour management and RAW conversion. These are the bedrock of pro shooting these days and with out them, Aperture is just another archiving software. I have not tried Lightroom, but I wonder if this will fare any better?

How can I print a selection in Firefox 11 without it wasting paper and printing blank space in place of the non-selected material?

In Firefox 10 and before, I could select a small portion of a web page and it would print the selected portion on a single page. In Firefox 11, it prints blank space for the portion above my selection before printing my selection. This blank space could span several pages, and my printer prints those several blank pages with only headers and footers.

Still happens with Firefox 12. I wish they'd just fix it, the way it used to be in Firefox 10, without the complicated workaround suggested above.

Wrong print preview and printed color from Lightroom 1.3

I am running Vista Ultimate and i just installed the driver for my Canon PIXMA Pro9000.
When i try to print from Lightroom 1.3 the colors are very muted, even when i do print preview the colors are wrong in the print preview screen.
No matter what i do i cant seem to get lightroom to Print Preview AND print with the right colors.
The image on this link http://www.pbase.com/charld/image/94711330
(on the left) is what i see and get when i do a print preview and print and my monitor image is on the right.
If i use Canon DPP the colors are not that bad, its a bit dark but that was easily fixed and i can get it quite close to what i see on the screen. My monitor is not calibrated..The images were all shot in RAW and converted to DNG...Do i need to re-install Lightroom as i don't think print preview has anything to do with the printer i have attached....
Thanks

I got the solution from another forum:
http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?t=1613
1. in the Print module, clicking on the Print Settings button ...
2. Choose your media type
3. Under Print Quality choose High
4. Under Color Intensity choose Manual. In the subsequent dialogue box choose None.
5. In the Print right hand panel under Color Management choose your print media - PR1 for Photo Paper Pro, SG1 for semi-gloss &c
6. Rendering intent Perceptual.
7. Hit Print and OK.
this resolved my issue!!

Photoshop and Bridge Color Space Mismatches

I've recently scanned a number of photos (.TIFF) using the Wide Gamut Color Space (Nikon AdobeWide 4.0.0.3000).
Bridge shows:
Color Mode = RGB
Color Profile = Nikon AdobeWide 4.0.0.3000
However when I open them using the embedded profile, Photoshop CS5 shows on the file Info/Camera Data Tab
Color Space = sRGB, or
Color Space = Uncalibrated.
I opened the files in IDImager to see what it showed. It had under Technical Data
Color Space = AdobeRGB
Color Profile = Nikon AdobeWide 4.0.0.3000
So, Bridge and IDImager seem fine; Photoshop seems to have some difficulty.
The monitor is calibrated.
Why would Photoshop behave in this way? Is there anything I should be concerned about in what PS may be doing.

Probably something to do with your Edit->Color Settings. Is the second RGB dropdown set to Convert to Working RGB?

Camera calibration tab and camera color space

Hi, I need a confirmation about the hue and saturation sliders on the camera calibration tab. They are there for fine tuning the camera color space primaries in a DNG profile? Thanks a lot.

Hello, here I'm again.
I'm probably in the wrong forum, because I can't tell you anything about the DNG secrets
(though I have the specs).
About your second question (more an issue for a color science forum), I've found something:
Estimation of the primaries for a digital camera:
Please refer to these docs:

Given is an equation
(*) X = C R
We have two applications:
(1) Original question
X = Matrix X1 X2 ... Xm
                Y1 Y2 ... Ym
                 Z1 Z2 ... Zm
m=41 values in each row for CIE CMFs (color matching functions) 380nm...780nm
R = Matrix R1 R2 ... Rm
                 G1 G2 ... Gm
                 B1 B2 ... Bm
41 values in each row for the sensor sensitivities for red, green and blue CCD array elements
Matrix C is found by solving equation (*), using the pseudoinverse.
Matrix C contains the XYZ-coordinates of the primaries red, green, blue as columns 1, 2 and 3.
(2) About the mathematics
X = Matrix X1 X2 ... Xm
                 Y1 Y2 ... Ym
                 Z1 Z2 ... Zm
m=24 values for the GretagMacbeth ColorChecker
R = Matrix R1 R2 ... Rm
                  G1 G2 ... Gm
                  B1 B2 ... Bm
24 values in each row for the RGB results als delivered by the camera, for instance in sRGB.
Matrix C contains the XYZ-coordinates of the effective primaries(including sRGB) red, green, blue as columns.
(2) explains the principle of the pseudoinverse for overdetermined systems of linear equations.
(1) explains the application for the identification of camera primaries for given sensor sensitivities.
Unfortunately, the whole concept will fail, if the camera sensor sensitivities (CMFs) are not
linear combinations of the CIE CMFs x-bar, y-bar, z-bar. In this case, a camera does not have
primaries, but the computational result can be used as an approximation.
CMF = color matching function (CIE)
I regret –it cannot be explained 'for the layman'.

Photoshop and working color spaces

In how many color spaces Photoshop can work correctly?
Can only work with gamma 1.8 and 2.2 ones or even with linear or L* gamma color spaces?
It is enough that the working spaces has RGB=0 0 0 mapped to L*=0 and RGB 255 255 255 mapped to L*=100?
Thank you
Marco

I don't know where in the past I read that in Photoshop the curves, levels and so on work correctly only if the image encoding color space has: pure black (L*=0) mapped to 0 0 0, pure white (L*=100) mapped to 255 255 255, the gray axis effectively acromathic (a,b=0) and the gamma encoding is 1.8 or 2.2.
These are the reasons because (I read) in the working RGB color space is not advisable choosing the monitor color profile.
Thank you for your considerations
Marco

SRGB monitor and SRGB color space in After Effects

Hello, I would like to ask some really basics about color correction. I do mostly animations and editing that plays on web and television sometimes. Im using a dell 2713hm monitor. Should i use the sRGB profile when i color correct? Also should i set my After Effects also to sRGB color space? thanx

My monitor comes calibrated in sRGB i think. But in any case, i m getting the spy4elite tool these days so will fix this issue.
So lets suppose it is. And please lets keep the explanation as simple as possible, cause i have read A LOT and i got confused.
From my understanding when having 8bit and i need to export for web, i should use the sRGB both in profile monitor, in AE color management and in output module? If that is correct, i wanna know what i do when i do 32 bit compositing, and also what i do when i got things for television (either motion graphics/3d or footage)
thanx

Display and print color matching

Hi all. I need help because I'm coming crazy.
I use Lightroom 5 to organize, edit, print and share my photos. I use an iMac 27" with Maverick installed, I calibrate the display using X-Rite color munki Display. I have a Canon 9500 Mark II printer and I like printing on Canon Fine Art Photo Premium Matte (FA-PM1), I also have a little Epson Stylus Photo P50.
Here we are…I want Lightroom to manage the color when I print and I select the right Icc profile for the printer and the paper but when I print with the Canon printer the prints came out with incorrect colors; last attempt the print came out too magenta. How can I make sure the printer is not managing the color in the printer dialog box? There is nothing that say "none" or "no color management". I'm getting better results with the little Epson printer rather then the more expensive Canon printer.
Anybody can help me?
Thanks a lot.

How to Make Sure that the Apple Device and Printer are on the same Network

Depending on when one looks on this page, one can find members posting about issues with AirPrint or not being able to find the printer to use AirPrint. The first Item that people are told to check is the Apple Device’s settings. Sometimes the person giving instructions breaks down what to check and how to check and sometimes they do not. Below is a video that walks one through how to print a network configuration page, what information they need to pull from that report and how to then access the Apple devices’ settings and put the device on the same network as the printer. It then walks one through printing to the printer using the AirPrint feature.

LR3 and printer color is off.

I have a Epson CX7800 printer and when I try to print out my picture, the color is off. My image looks great, but when I try to print, the color's are not the same. I've gone to my printer settings and set them to no color management and set the default in LR, there is no color match. Am I doing something wrong?

Spyder 3 pro just over $100, Eye One Display 2 now replaced by the Pro, but Display 2 is fine and can be had new for arund $100. Both vary a bit from unit to unit, but much better than nothing.
To the OP, Lee Jay's link to the Epson leaflet might be slightly confusing for the setting for the Epson CX7800 or other non-pro Epson printers. The printer dialouge (main tab, click advanced button) looks something like this:
You need to select the paper type and "Photo" or "Best Photo" quality in the basic settings.
The LR print dialog should like this:
Obviously, choose the appropriate profile for your printer and paper. If profiles weren't installed when you installed the printer driver, you might need to go to the Epson site and download the profiles for your printer.
