Will Illustrator cc have the same color wheel options to create swatches like in Photoshop and InDesign?

How do I add Pantone Color Books to Illustrator CC?

I'm used to using the Pantone Process color book in illustrator, but it's missing from my Illustrator CC. How can I add it? I had it at work, so I assume it is a standard color book, because my work never paid for anything extra. I see I have a Pantone+ CMYK Coated color book, but the names of the swatches are different from Pantone Solid to Process color book I'm used to.

oh. then you are requesting for the old pantone books?
here you go
Dropbox - pantones.zip
let me know when you've got it because i'd like to delete it.

RGB Color management between Illustrator and Photoshop

Hi,
I have a color management issue when exporting JPGs from Illustrator and opening them in Photoshop:
In Illustrator (file is in RGB mode), I have a logo which has the color RGB 0/0/153 and I export a JPG. When I open the file in Photoshop, the color is RGB 1/0154.
I have activated Adobe CC Color Manegement via Adobe Bridge (option "Europe, Universal 3"), which should produce consistent results in all Adobe applications.
So which is the color that is actually in the file? And what do I have to do to get the color I want (0/0/153) actually exported from Illustrator? I need this color to comply with corporate design specifications of my client.
Since I have to produce a lot of files it is not possible to readjust all colors in Photoshop ...
Thank you!
Michael

First, check to make sure that the RGB working colorspace is the same for both Illustrator and Photoshop.
When exporting the jpeg from Illustrator make sure the 'embed' color profile is selected, and it is the color profile that is required for your client. If this is for web use, then sRGB is your best choice.
When you open the exported image in Photoshop, make sure that the color settings for Photoshop are set to 'Preserve Embedded Profiles'. After you open the image in Photoshop, you can double check by going to Edit > Convert to Profile... The source profile should match the embedded exported profile from Illustrator. If these match, your RGB color values from Illustrator and Photoshop should also match.
If the source profile does not match, cancel out of the 'Convert to Profile" and go to 'Assign Profile". Assign the profile that you embedded when exporting from Illustrator. Now Photoshop should have the same values as Illustrator.

How to import color palette into illustrator

Since I am new to illustrator, I have a very simple question. I have a color palette from my company. This is the company colors. I would like to input these colors into the color palette of illustrator so I use those colors for our designs, etc. What is one way to do this?

Might be better to open the JPEG in Photoshop and create swatches there. Then you can export those swatches as ASE which you can then load into Illustrator.
In Illustrator you can include those swatches in a document profile. which you can then base your files upon.

Is there a way to permanently save color libraries in Illustrator CC 2014 so that every time you launch the software, the colors appear in Swatch palette?

Modify the New Document Profile you use the most to reflect what you want it to contain or just make a new document with all the stuff and save it with a distinct name to the New Document Profiles folder in your user profile.

Only use HSB Color Picker in Illustrator?

I only want to use the HSB Color Picker in Illustrator. Yet it always shows the RGB Color Picker by default. Is there a way to change this behavior?
I'm using CS6.
Thanks!

Note that HSB values are hopelessly unstable.

Pantone color book for Illustrator 6

Where can I find updated color books for Illustrator to use the latest Pantone colors?
Eg. I do not find Solid Coated 2028 in my recent installation
Thanks in advance

Ask in the AI forum. Certain Pantone colors have changed over the years and this may be such a case where it appears under a different number...

Is it possible to upload color groups from Illustrator CC?

Is there anyway to upload a color group from Illustrator to Adobe Cloud and have it appear as a Color Theme? I can only seem to upload individual colors. Alternatively, is it possible to group individual colors that have been uploaded into a Color Theme?
I am running Illustrator CC 18.1.1 on Mac 10.9.5 (Mavericks.)
Thanks,.

Upload? You should be able to tap and hold down on an image until the Copy or Save Image options popup. Tap Save and it should be saved to the camera roll album in the photos app.

Color change between Illustrator versions

When I'm opening an Illustrator cs file for a while back in Illustrator cs5, the colors change. When I try to open the cs file (eps) in Photoshop cs5, the colors change too. What setting am I missing? The document color mode is set on cmyk. Is it something inside of color settings? Thank you

Ok... let me be more specific, sorry for the confusion. Here is exactly what's going on...
Another designer is working in Illustrator CS and has created a logo that they provide to me in ai, eps, jpg, tif, png and gif. The jpg, tif, png and gif have been output from the eps file by opening the eps file in Photoshop and saving in the desired format. All these files have the same color.
The issue is when I receive them and I want to either simply open the ai or eps in Illustrator CS5 (or CS3), or open the eps in Photoshop CS5 (or CS3) so I can save a big high res jpg for example, the color are lighter and not the same as the jpg provided from them. So I'm unable to create any files (jpg, gif, tif...) from the eps to match what was created before. Does that make sense?
I have established that the other designer uses Illustrator CS and CMYK is selected for the 'document color mode' in Illustrator. When I work in Illustrator CS5 CMYK is also selected.
When I have opened other eps files from the same Illustrator version, and looked at the files that were output from them, the colors are all the same, but in this case it is not. I'm wondering if I'm missing a setting somewhere or if this will always happen if you open an Illustrator CS eps inside Illustrator CS5.

Default color palette in illustrator cc 2014

How and where can I save a custom default color palette in Illustrator cc 2014 ?
I'd figured it out for cc, but it overwrote my palettes when I upgraded, and now I can't seem to find the solution. .ase files don't seem to be recognized by 2014, either.
Thanks!

Oh no, wait sorry. False alarm.
I don't have those options in my advanced options when I create a new AI doc. (see attached)
Clicking the "profile [custom]" dropdown only gives me the option to select presets such as "Web" and "Print" and "Basic RGB", but no option to create my own.

Problem Lab color mode in Illustrator CC 2014

What is the best way to choose a CMYK color mode in Illustrator? When I want to import a file from Illustrator to InDesign it will automatically be converted to a Lab color mode and I can not change the CMYK values. All colors from Illustrator are therefore in a Lab color mode. I work with Illustrator CC 2014, thank you very much!

Thank you I think I understand what you mean. I added a Illustrator and Indesign picture to show you what happens. I made a file in Illustrator with the right values and saved it as a eps file. Then I imported in to Indesign and the second picture shows what happens. I never had this problem but since the new CC version I can't change it.

Program-wide color change across Illustrator CS6.

I'm in OS X 10.8.3 working in Illustrator CS6. I have a MacBook Pro hooked up to a calibrated NEC PA271W monitor.
I've been working on some CMYK design documents with a mix of process and Pantone. All art was created in Illustrator and is vector. Everything was going fine, colors looked great and super-accurate as they always do with this monitor. Then...
I was exporting my design to PDF via Save a Copy. As I always do for PDFs I'm sending to a client for review, I chose to convert the colors to destination sRGB in the PDF options dialogue so they can be reviewed on screen.
Upon viewing the PDF using QuickLook in the Finder, I noticed that—rather than being converted to sRGB and looking pretty-close to the CMYK AI file—the PDF was extremely dull as if all colors had been desaturated 50%.
I tried other variations of the export and could not get the colors to look right (note: I did the exact same exports many times over the last week and they always looked great). Finally, I restarted my comp thinking perhaps it was just a temporary bug.
Upon opening my design file back up in Illustrator -- all the elements in the design file itself as we'll as ALL color palettes within illustrator had the same horrible desaturated look! CMYK proof preview was not turned on it affects all files, even those that worked perfectly in the past. I didn't knowingly change any settings in Illustrator (is there a make-all-colors-look-grayed-out shortcut I don't know about?!).
This is killing me because I'm on a tight deadline. Things I've tried:
Trashed all custom color profiles and re-calibrated
Trashed all ColorSync prefs and cache
Ran ColorSync validation on all profiles, fixed those with problems
Checked that CS6 color was synchronized
Checked that all profiles on documents were correct (though I knew it wasn't this because of the random nature of the change.
Restarted my Mac a bunch of times.
Ran Onyx automated cleaning.
I am at my wit's end -- any suggestions for what might be causing this?

got another monitor? got another computer? if you have another monitor, hook it up. if not and you have another computer altogether, look at the pdf in acrobat on it.

How to get color group from illustrator into flash

Hi,
I have difficulties with the color management between Illustrator and Flash.
I have the original vector files in Illustrator and would like to use the color groups, I have in Illustrator, also in Flash.
One way doing it is using the Kuler.
But I can not get the colors from Illustrator into Kuler.
Can someone advice how to manage that process?
Many thanks in advance!

I'm fairly new to this having only recently started using these tools again after six years, but will try to help! Go to "Explore", find a theme you like and click the "Edit" selection when you mouse over it. From there you can edit it or save a copy of it as is as whatever name you wish. In Photoshop or Illustrator, they will now show up in Adobe Color Themes (Window > Extensions > Adobe Color Themes) under "All Themes" in the drop menu. In these apps (and others that are Adobe Color Theme aware), any themes that you favorite on the site will show up under "My Favorites".
If you're using Fireworks, it's different as it still uses Kuler (Window > Extensions > Kuler). Themes you save or favorite on the site don't automatically show up there, however you can search for themes by name, and if you select "Custom" from the theme group dropdown, you can enter up to four names that will show up in that dropdown menu and produce as many results as the window can hold for an individual term. For instance, I saved a theme as "Copy of Industrial Calm" which if I enter in the search box, the "group" is a group of one. However, if I just type "Industrial", the window fills with options, yet there are MANY more results on the Adobe Color site and you would have to be specific to get the right one in that window.
Hope that helps.

Where is the color eyedropper in illustrator draw?

Where is the color eyedropper in illustrator draw? This is a feature I desperately need.

I find this a problem too! The color history is not nearly as convenient while working on a drawing and once you work on a few projects and then come back to an older drawing it is real guess work to match colors.

Snow Leopard prints pdf in other colors than the Illustrator CS3 design

2 days ago I installed Snow Leopard. Yesterday I tried to print an Adobe Illustrator CS3 document that I made into a PDF. My logo which is gradient aqua and yellow prints grey, black and red. It appears fine on the screen and prints fine as an AI document. I emailed the document to my husband as a PDF and he also just installed Snow Leopard. The email pdf shows the proper colors but it prints in the same weird grey, black, red for him as well. All our old documents from years back which have my logo print in this wrong color combo. I spoke to Apple today and I printed a random Safari photo doc ( a zedonk, zebra donkey, check her out)! saved as a PDF in the proper color combo. We installed a graphics update for Illustrator but no resolution. It appears the problem might be the pdf file sent through Snow Leopard can't read the colors. Help!

Try printing the PDF with Adobe Reader
