Color in experted files Beta 4.1

If I export files to TIFFs or JPEGs and open in PSE 3.0 the images are dull and flat compared with LR and appear as if develop settings have not been applied on export (NEFs). If I convert the same files to DNG and then open in PSE the colors are great without any further adjsutment, the develop settings seem to be applied by CR (except crop).
If I then save the DNG in PSE to TIFF or JPEG the adjsuted colors are retained (as they should have been in the LR export).
Why I am I getting dull colors or loss of adjustments when exporting to TIFF or JPEG from LR?

Andrew Bell (continued) The tile was of course exported file!
Further test show that develop adjustments are exported to the TIF/JPG. The color is just less saturated, less contrasty and with a color cast in the exported files when displayed in PSE).

Converting all colors within a file to CMYK?

Sometimes I get files that have ridiculous color names or an obscure palette that my rip doesn't recognize. Is there an easy way to convert all colors in a file to CYMK?

The OP wanted an easy way to convert to CMYK when sending to the RIP I would think you do this from the print dialog and since the file is not theirs they might not want to fool around with the clients documents and accidentally save over it and then have the clients claimed they change the file and messed it up even though it printed better than expected.
You know how that goes!?

Change Color Label of File with Javascript

I need to be able to run a JS script from within Photoshop and when it's complete, change the color of the file in Finder to indicate it has been processed. I'm talking about the red, orange, yellow, etc. highlights you can give the files in Finder.
I know how to change these file colors in Applescript. But I cannot figure out how to initiate the process from JS when run inside Photoshop.
So I was curious if there was:
A. A way to run an Applescript from Javascript
or
B. A way to define the property of a file from JS such that Finder would interpret it into a color highlight?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Here is some code from X that might be of use...
//myscript.sh MUST exist with execute permissions!
var script = new File("~/Desktop/myscript.sh");
script.length = 0;
script.lineFeed = "unix";
script.length = 0;
script.open("e");
script.writeln("#!/bin/bash");
script.writeln("osascript ... whatever");
script.close();
script.execute();
Of course you would need CS3 orr better.

Applescript to read text file & set color of matching files in a folder

I am keen to find a way to process a file I have been given for a string and to check if that string exists as part of a filename in a folder on my disk.
If the string in the file list corresponds to the file name in the folder then I want to color the corresponding file red.
Can anyone suggest a way to do this?

'I am keen to find a way to process a file I have been given for a string; - ? Is this to translate to - you have a file, containing multiple file names? And if so, are each file names on a separate line?
My above questions are derived from the statement portion of - 'If the string in the file list corresponds to the file name ...'.
Assuming such, here is some starter code:
property tFolder : (((path to desktop folder from user domain) as string) & "untitled folder 2:") -- Provided folder path.
on run -- Notify user to drag a file onto the applet.
display dialog "Drag file onto applet, for further processing." default button "OK"
end run
on open dItems -- Obtain a list of dragged-on items.
repeat with i in dItems -- Cycle through individual items
set fList to paragraphs of (read i)
repeat with j in fList
with timeout of 0 seconds -- Extend default timetout to infinity.
tell application "Finder" -- Activate 'Finder' for processing of desired folders' contents.
try -- Capture any unwanted AppleScript errors.
-- Obtain a list of all files with the name stored in 'fName'.
set tFiles to (every file of entire contents of folder tFolder whose displayed name contains j)
-- or, use the line of code below (in place of the line of code above), if the complete file name, including file extension, is within the dragged file.
-- set tFiles to (every file of entire contents of folder tFolder whose displayed name is fName)
if ((count tFiles) > 0) then -- If one or file exists, proess the file(s).
repeat with k in tFiles -- Cycle through the list of located files.
set (label index of k) to 2 -- Set the 'label index' of located file to 'red'.
end repeat
end if
end try
end tell
end timeout
end repeat
end repeat
end open
Save the above code as an application.

Using the eyedropper tool to take a color from another file or website...

Hi,
I'm new to Kuler, but recall being able to use the eyedropper tool in InDesign and click on an area of color from a file from another application or a website and have use it in the InDesign file.
Am I incorrect?
If there is a way to do what I am asking if you could please explain how I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks and look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Not sure what exactly you are asking here.
However, wrt Kuler in Indesign, You can add swatches to Indesign Swatches Panel. You can apply color to ID Fill/Stroke color by simply double-clicking a color on Create Tab inside Kuler panel. Or you can take color from Fill/Stroke and set it as base in Create tab to create theme around it

Colors in pdf files changed when I open those files in the iPad.

I usually use iPad and Goodreader for reading journal articles.
There is one big problem reading the papers using iPad because colors in pdf files looks abnormal.
When I use my labtop and desktop, I can see whole colors in the pdf files, so I can see what is exactly happening in the images in pdf files.
However, I cannot catch any details from those images in pdf files when I use my iPad.
For example, some colors in the pdf files disappeared and whole images in the pdf files looks too dark.
I searched for some informations to solve this problem using google but I cannot find exact method.
Many people said about this problem for a long time (maybe three years ago?) but it has not been solved yet.
Can anyone suggest me how to solve this problem?
If this issue cannot be solved, I think I do not have any reasons for using my iPad.

You've just uncovered something I don't really know. I had naively thought the Central Database and Cache are one and the same (and that the [ Purge Cache ] button would clear saved settings), but now I'm not so sure.
I tested by changing the parameters of a raw file, and I didn't see any files inside the Cache folder change their modification dates, which is not at all what I expected.
I don't really want to press the [ Purge Cache ] button to check it here, because I want to retain my own settings. You could try it and see if it clears the white balance setting on a particular file.

Color Correcting MOV file

Hello, I have a problem with importing FCP generated XML file into Adobe Premiere Pro, so I can later transfer it to Adobe After Effects for color correcting. So I'm thinking to color correct a high quality MOV file that I can export from Final Cut. Does that make any sense? I'd like to keep highest quality possible for submitting my film to film festivals, DVD etc.
Would such a method adversely affect the quality of the image? What would be the best way to color correct a file?
Also, as a side question, does Color Finesse come built-in into After Effects or one has to purchase it separately. For someone, who is an amateur in color correcting does it make a big difference whether one color correct in After Effects or Color Finesse?
Many thanks

If you export a losslessly encoded movie from Final Cut Pro, then you won't lose any quality by moving your movie back and forth as a QuickTime movie. People often use the Animation codec or the PNG codec in a QuickTime container for lossless encoding of movies for such transfers. The files are big, though, so don't expect to use such files for distribution or realtime playback.
Yes, Color Finesse is included with the full version of After Effects (not with the free trial version, though). See "Color correction and adjustment".

Is there a way to batch process color corrected RAW files to tif files?

I got over 160 color corrected RAW files from my photographer when I thought I was getting TIf or PSD files. I need to put them into an indesign doc to send out for printing. Is there a way to convert all of these in one fell swoop without messing up the work that has already been done? I didn't allow in my timing to save each one individually since i didn't know I was going to need ot do this. I am really unfamiliar with batch processing, so no idea how to best go about this, or if I even can. Please help. I am working in Photoshop CS6. version 13.06 x 64

An easy way is to open Bridge, select the images then click on Tools/Image processor. You can then save as jpg, psd, or tiff.
Hope this helps.

Saving a color ID CS5 file as a grayscale printable PDF?

I need to save a process color ad I designed as a grayscale printable PDF. I normally use the Adobe PDF Presets within InDesign, but I don't see options for saving a file in grayscale. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Steve is correct on both counts. If you're a Windows user, printing to PDF is faster becasue it happens in one step, but for Mac folk you have to jump through a lot of hoops these days to print to .ps file, then distill as a separate step. The only reason for even attempting on the Mac side would be to see if there is any significant difference in the gray values between the two applications when they do the conversions.
Which brings up the biggest trap in doing any sort of automated conversion -- bad rendering. Colors of wildly different hue can easily end up looking like the same gray value if they share the same luminosity. I think it's always better to do individually adjusted grayscale conversions of each image and make a "real" grayscale file.

Cs3 color setting xml file location ( colors.xml )

In previous versions of dreamweaver ( or previous to windows
vista ) I was able to access this file via documents and settings
and then into the macromedia subfolders.
It contained the file colors.xml which held my code coloring
preferences.
Any idea where that file would be in CS3 adn Vista?

Protoculture wrote:

I haven't created any custom colours, but Vista search found
this for me
in seconds:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver
CS3\configuration\CodeColoring\Colors.xml
I presume that if an individual user creates a set of custom
colours,
the XML file will be in the Roaming folder.

Mixing CSS colors and image files from Photoshop for web

Hello,
I recently encountered a web production color issue and wanted to collaborate with other web producers to either inform or to see if there isn't a better work-around....
A web site design has a particular color palette and some elements are converted to HTML/CSS colors (rgb hex values) and other elements must be saved as images--both with the same exact color appearance. We graphics professionals know that generally all images should have the color profile indicated (embedded, tagged) in the image file (e.g., sRGB, Adobe RGB or whatever) in our color-managed workflow so that the color numbers have meaning. For web, I've always used sRGB (the web standard) and tagged the images with the sRGB color profile.
Historically, this probably hasn't mattered because no web browser cared about the image profiles anyway. However, recently, some browsers have started to implement color-management. This is good for pictures and such, but poses a problem for web graphic elements: the images are rendered in the color-managed sRGB, yet the CSS is still rendered outside of color-management (the so-called monitor or "device" profile?). Therefore, if a web page design's color palette is to be honored, the HTML/CSS hex colors must appear the same as the matching hex colors embedded in the images. However, modern browsers now render the colors in the color-profile-tagged/embedded images differently, so the colors on the rendered pages no longer match!
My work around has been to NOT tag (embed) the web-element image files with any color profile and thus cause the modern browsers to do what they used to: render the images without a color profile just like they render HTML/CSS hex colors. Perhaps in the future, there will be an HTML specification to inform the web browser to render all colors (HTML/CSS/images) in a particular color profile. (In my cursory testing, I've found that current Safari and Chrome for Windows 7 do alter the tagged-image appearances, yet Safari in iOS does not.)
Have other web producers run in to this issue and are there more eloquent work-arounds?

How to make LR3 convert .erf files better [Epson R-D1s]

How can I help Adobe make LR3 convert .erf files [Epson digtial rangefinder R-D1s raw format] better?
After testing LR3 I have re-evaluated my policy for converting two of the three different raw-formats I use: .nef, .x3f and .erf. With the camera calibration beta 2 features for .nef files I cannot see any difference between Capture NX2 output and that of LR3 – well done. And while Sigma’s Photo Pro might still have a slight edge on absolute quality for .x3f files, LR3 has a definite advantage in minimizing (almost eliminating) the green cast problem of high ISO .x3f files. That is one very impressive result.
But for the .erf files there is no marked improvement in LR3 over LR2 and the difference between PhotoRAW and LR3 is almost unbelievable and not to LR3’s advantage. I have tried all possible combinations of process (2003, 2010), profiles (ACR 2.4, 4.4 and Adobe standard) and color space on direct import of raw-files (.erf, .erf converted to .dng, differently sized .tiffs and jpegs) as well as all different combinations of .tiff and .jpegs (size and bit) imports via PhotoRAW and nothing in LR3 comes even close.
The .erf files in PhotoRAW have a certain look to them [a combination of a 3D effect and a brilliance that reminds me of a high quality film transparancy] which is what users of R-D1s love and non-users cannot understand is possible to extract from a 6 megapixel sensor. Although it is possible to use PhotoRAW as an editor from within LR, even the imported .tiff files do not have the same brilliance/3D effect.
Now the question is: how can I help Adobe improve the conversion routine for these files?

Problem with color in pdf files

My documents contain color logo.
Whenever converted into pdf file, I always see color logo in the pdf files.
Today, the logo came out to be in black and white.
I repeated many times even with Adobe PDF (printer driver).
But logo came out in B & W.
I am wondering how to fix this problem.
I currently use WinXP Pro SP2-Acrobat Pro 7.10.
NOte: Last week, v. 7.09 was updated to 7.10.
I wonder this update contains a bug which produces B&W image.

Please ignore this post.
I would like to ask the moderator to delete this post.
(note; I found that theproblem has nothing to do with pdf but with the original xls invoice douments).
