Book color in .chm help

Does anyone know if there's a way to change the book color in
.chm help? I see where you can select a custom image. But I don't
want a single image. I want to use the open books, closed books,
and topic icons, just in a different color.

Hi, Brenwine,
You'd use a graphics editor like Paint or Paint Shop Pro to
set up the icon file as you want it, and then you'd configure your
TOC to use the icons in this file instead of the standard TOC icons
(see
"Customize
HTML Help table of contents").
Before you do much work on this, though, it's worth noting
that Microsoft never properly implemented this feature in HTML
Help, and consequently it is so handicapped as to be barely worth
using. See these articles for more information on the problems and
some possible workarounds:

A new Book: Color Management for Digital Photographers

Ted Padova and Don Mason have published a new book: Color Management for Digital Photographers for Dummies (ISBN 978-0-470-04892-4).
As the back cover of the manual states "This book is packed with examples to guide you through understanding color basics, correcting brightness and contrast, getting the exact tone and hue, and creating perfect prints - in full color, of course!" (with the tools available in PSE 4 and 5).
I had the luck to benefit from the excellent experience and the gracious help of Don Mason for a color/brightness adjustment problem in a Dafodill photo that I did not know how to solve on my own. I look forward to learn much more from this book.
Probably other PSE users could also be interested in this book.

Yes, I've tried all of the options: Printer manages color, PSE manages color. All are the same dark prints.
On another conversation on this forum, I read the following. Very discouraging to think that Adobe knows of this problem but won't give me any tech support because too much time has lapsed.
I don't know what "plugs" are--sounds like this user figured out a way around it.
Any advice?
Thanks!

Re: Color mismatch EpsonR800 and Elements 6
Adobe has admitted that there is a color management issue with PSE 6 for Mac. I have an Epson R1900 and I am now getting acceptable color-managed prints by allowing the Epson Printer driver to manage color management (ie; color management in PSE 6 turned off). The Epson Photoshop Plug In also works well with PSE6 and ICC profiles; however, I have yet to solve 2 problems with this particular plug in: (1) How to get the program to capture 3rd party ICC profiles and (2) how to print borderless prints. If anyone has seen a user guide for this particular plug in, I would be grateful to know how to download it.

Your advice did not help me. I also installed 10.7.4 combo but the situation is the same.
my internet connection is ok, mail is ok, but app store after 3 resets does not recognize my ID and it says "connection is not possible". Why? I have the same problem in both my mac mini late 2009 and mac book air 2010? Is it a problem of 10.7.4 update? I have to solve this problem and how can i return to 10.7.3 if my last backup was not with 10.7.3???thank you for your kind collaboration...

Is there a way to create 'Book Color's with CS Extension Builder?

Dear all
Is there a way to add a spot color with color mode "Book Color" as those from the swatch libary, the PANTONE color book for example.
I see those Book Colors have fixed Lab Values and cannot be changed. So they would be fixed for the user.
Is there a way to do this?
thanks
regards

One thought is to do a pre- or post-build action VI that exports all of the revs (like you see in VI props>>revision) for the discrete VI's in the project . You can set it to increment the rev every time the VI is saved. If the revs are the same you know nothing has changed but if they're different you won't know if the thing that's changed is significant.
Another thought is maybe TortoiseSVN or similar could keep track of what's-changed-and-why for you but I've never use it.
While that would serve the purpose of showing that the source hasn't changed (although I'm not so sure that relying onrev numbers is the best way to go about it - CRC check per file is probably better), it still doesn't gurantee that the build works.
I just think that the whole process probably burns up several thousand dollars worth of unnecessary testing, V&V and paperwork.

Proud to say that I've progressed beyond knowing just enough to be dangerous. I now know enough to know that I have no clue about anything at all.

DIAdem doesn't have a method to open .chm files because these files are Microsoft help files, rather than DIAdem specific help files. However, there is a KnowledgeBase on Microsoft's web page that may be of help. You can find this document at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=209843. I found this by doing a web search for "Programmatically open .chm". I hope this helps you.

Book colors with Custom Color Suite

Is there any way to programmatically create a book color? Dragging one from the book to the swatch palette creates a book color, but the Custom Color Suite seems to only have options for four color, three color, and lab color.

In an AICustomColor, there is a variable AICustomColorTag, where you can choose kCustomFourColor (CMYK) , kCustomThreeColor (RGB), or kCustomLabColor (LAB), but there doesn't seem to be any way to tag a color swatch as a Book Color. If you just drag a color from a color book within Illustrator to the swatch list, it is tagged as a book color automatically. At least it is in mine... give it a try. When I create a color swatch programmatically as a lab color or whatever, I can then double click the swatch within Illustrator and change it manually to a Book color.
Weird.
There's actually a function in the AISwatchLibrariesSuite called FindStandardBookColor, that I'm using to look up a color definition from the color books by name, but it doesn't pull the "Book Color" tag with it, just the CMYK definition.

CS6 PMS Book Colors only as LAB

HI:
I can't get Illustrator to create a swatch with Pantone Book CMYK values: only LAB. All my Color Books arte displaying LAB icons.
If I spec the spot color as CMYK, I get the CMYK equivalent of this LAB value, based on my Color Settings. For example: Pantone 485C with a book value of C0 M100 Y95 K0 dispalays as C10 M96 Y100 K2
I'm working in CMYK color space.
I've set "Use CMYK values from Manufacturer's Books" in spot colors dialogue in swatch panel.
Thanks,
Cam

Theres another thread here thats has some decent similar points...Pantone 295U is off from my pantone book
I just want to add my posts here 'cause I'm on Manwith2shoes side of this and, like him, I don't think this issue is trivial. I was surprised months ago when CS6 was released that there were'nt a zillion posts about this. I think it's like what Kals said in his post:
Here's an example.
I'm creating a 16 page booklet (Web coated SWOP) for AMEX (on befalf of an agency) that requires their artwork to be printed as PMS 288C (specced by AMEX as a Pantone Book Color of C100M67Y0K23). I get $5,000 to design the book and the print job is worth $150,000.
If for whatever reason AMEX isn't happy about the color of the book, I gotta be sure that there's at least no yellow dots on that thing or I'm exposed to liability that is far beyond my pay grade. I can't afford to have Illustrator or InDesign decide for me that a little bit more yellow and a little less black will be just the ticket to match that Pantone.
I have depended on the "Use CMYK value from Pantone's Book" option, the default 'Press Quality' colour conversion setting for exporting PDF artwork from InDesign set to 'preserve numbers' for CMYK colours, and the "Convert Spots to Process" without thinking twice about the outcome. Now I can't afford to just do that. Those "old" CMYK specs aren't just archaic, they're a kinda contractual agreement for me.
Almost every corporate client I work with specs their colors in Pantone. Almost without exception they provide CMYK color guidelines for those Pantone colors that are exactly the same as in the "old" Pantone Color Books.
I may be producing 10 various projects like Direct Mail, Letterhead, Brochure, digital or whatever. Some print as spot. Some print as CMYK. Some are both. Sometimes the same piece is printed both ways. Sometimes they change.
When I set up a Client program in the past, I could spec their Pantones in an Illustrator (InDesign) file and 'presto' the Book mix was there if I needed it. From there I could swing whatever way I wanted without monkeying with different setups or naming conventions (like "My Client's CMYK idea for PMS 288c which is exactly the same as in the Pantone Book"). One Illustrator logo: 10 projects. One InDesign file managed with the Ink Manager and "Preserve Numbers".
Maybe it's just on my end of the world... but my Client's don't give me CMYK specs for all the various press conditions. They just expect their simple Pantone to print at 0 100 95 10, regardless whether 6 97 94 7 gets them closer to the true Pantone color. I think they kinda like that we can lose the 4th plate every once and a while too!
It's just lazy of me, I know... But with every advance of CS: things always get a little more efficient.
Hey Whay!!
This is an old post. It's not an old topic. Most users are deaf I realized after beating the drum a few times. I stopped. "If the dog is asleep. Let 'em sleep!". As far as I am concerned (just me): Pantone is an archaic color system. It has a dictatorial role. I need a color system that is subserviant to my software. i can't spec complements and other harmonies using Hue values and expect to make any sense of them in Pantone. It's stupid! I can't accomplish complex color work this way. I want Adobe to devise it's own proprietary pallette (a simple, logical, flexible one). Then make Pantone or any other Ink House jump to this tune. Just me. Just my letter to Santa Claus.

Eos, movies or books stored. Any help is appreciated Thank you

CHM help file and java

is there any way to open a chm help file using java (so that the help viewer starts up)? this program will probably display a chm if it's running on a windows machine and in html if not

Useing RunTime Class in Java you can opern the CHM help file using the hh.exe
The hh.exe will be present in the windows directory.
See if this helps.
Your doubts are not related directly to JNI.
Didnt I misunderstand.

the trouble is that on the spine of the book the title is cut off and I don't know how avoid it.
I don't think you can, Fred. Pick a shorter title. And add the additional information by adding a subtitle on your title page. You can always add a second text box, using the "edit layout" panel.

Before you go, move the files to I tunes and sync them down. There is no viable way to stream from your nas drive to the pad.
