Color in Folio Preview does not match color in Workspace

I'm a beginner trying to make a layout of several images. The source images are PDF's and I want to eventually save the layout as a new PDF. When I bring the images into my layout, the color in the workspace is identical to the color in the source PDF's. However, if I do Folio Preview, the color is slightly different. If I Export the layout to PDF, then the resulting PDF's colors match the Folio Preview but not the source images. I've tried disabling all the Color Management I could find, but I am a beginner and clearly have not found the necessary settings. Appreciate any help.

Folio Preview is only for Digital Publishing Suite output and isn't the best way to preview. The most accurate color can be see if you choose View > Overprint Preview. You DON'T want to disable color management, in fact, I don't think you really can.

Cropping preview does not match output, constrained sizes.

I have two separate problems with the Crop tool. The first is that the crop preview does not match the what shows up after I exit crop mode.
Screen shot of to the preview: tinyurl.com/o9qxcy
After hitting "done": tinyurl.com/prtsrw
What is really strange is that I can work around this by expanding the crop size to almost the full size (less ~1 pixel off the bottom) and iMovie crops to the width of the original clip. If I expand it to full size of the preview area the crop still slices to the width, but it is then centered.
The second problem is that cropping will not let me expand the crop beyond a certain size. I have no work-around for this.
Screenshot of the max size I can select with the crop tool: tinyurl.com/pjqjno
Both of these happen both the project area and the clips drawer.

3D active-x color table does not match color box ctrl values

I am having a problem. I want to allow the user to control the background color and plot colors on the active-x 3D graph in labview 7.1.1. I am using the standard color box ctrls in labview to allow the user to pick, but the colors do not match. When I pick blue (0,0,255), it comes up red (255,0,0). When I choose yellow (255,255,0), it comes up cyan (0,255,255), and vice-versa. Black and white seems to work correctly, as well as green (0,255,0) being right in the middle. I am assuming this means whatever algorithm NI is using to create the color value is not the same from the labview side to the active-x control side. Anybody else run into this, and have a solution?

Thanks John.
Kind of funny, I ran off and built a sub-vi with the exact same guts as the OLE vi, but from looking at what the RGB vi did to break it down.
I would say though, they need to make a common sub-palette to deal with color issues. They have the same two RGB VIs located in two different spots, and this OLE one is in yet another. I think I would have looked under the Active-X sub-palette before I looked under the 3D graph palette (mainly because those are junk anyway, they barely give you any functionality).
Anyway, problem solved, thanks again.

Bridge preview does not match thumbnails

We've just updated the OS, and had to re-install Bridge and Photoshop (CS4). Unfortunately, the preview doesn't match the thumbnail in Bridge, nor does it match the file when I open it in Photoshop. As far as I am aware, they are both set to the same color space. I have also toggled the "Apply auto tone adjustments" box on and off in preferences, and it seems to make no difference.
This seems to be a new problem that has only occured since upgrading the OS.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

This seems to be a new problem that has only occured since upgrading the OS.
Have you already tried to use the purge cache option? Go to the menu tools /

Preview does not match printing

When I print a pages document it often leaves out graphics or text boxes. I check to make sure photo is in front and even delete photo and re position it. The image shows in preview but does not print. I sent the document as a PDF to a PC and the image printed correctly.

Hi McJPP,
You're using one of the built in color setups for Photoshop, so no big deal there. Since you have your monitor properly calibrated and profiled, ColorSync shouldn't be having an issue handling the difference between the image's color space and your monitor's. Questions though. Is the image RGB? Does it have an embedded profile? If so, is it Adobe RGB 1998? I'm assuming that it does since that's your working RGB color space in Photoshop.
The grab on the left is the preview copy using:
By preview, do you mean the Preview button on the print dialogue box at the bottom left next the the PDF button? I'm guessing yes since I can produce the same kind of result. It's a bit hard to explain, but I'll try.
I took a simple grayscale image and made it RGB. I then did the same thing you did. Left image is Photoshop handling color for an Epson Stylus Pro 4000, using a profile I made for a DuPont paper. Then clicking the Preview button when the print dialogue comes up. Right image is letting the printer handle color and clicking Preview. The result is below.
Believe it or not, there's nothing wrong. Photoshop (more accurately, ColorSync) is showing you what it had to do to the pixel color values to adjust for how the inks perform on the chosen paper. The end result, with proper profiles, is that the printed image looks like what you see in Photoshop regardless of how it shows in Preview mode. The Epson driver doesn't make this visible cue even though you've turned ColorSync on there, so it simply shows you the same thing you see in Photoshop, even though it's making the same adjustment to the pixel color values.
You should get essentially the same final output no matter which way you print the image.

Folio preview does not work!! since Mandatory Folio Builder Panel update!

hi everyone
my grafic team told me that the folio preview in indesign does not work anymore since the required folio builder panel update!
working on mac and cs 5
please help
best regards michael

I just spoke with a member of our team and they were able to reproduce this issue: invoking folio preview from the file menu brings up an empty panel instead of launching the desktop preview tool. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! There are two ways you can work around this and get the desktop preview application up with your content:
1) Use the preview button in the Folio Builder panel (this will preview the entire folio)
2) Use the preview button in the Overlay Creator panel (this will preview the active InDesign document)
This problem only affects CS5 and CS5.5. If you are on CS6 the menu will work correctly.

Preview Does Not Match Render

I am trying to replace one of the credits in a pre-built roll. I have the original credits captured from HDCAM 1080 23.98 psf 10 bit uncompressed on v1. On v2 I have a black square that covers up the line I want to change. And on line 3 I am going to put the next text. The problem is, the placement of the black changes by almost an entire line when i render the sequence. I have made sure all my render settings are set to the highest quality. Why is Final Cut preview so inaccurate as to make what should be a simple task nearly impossible?

Do you mean that your placement of black after it is rendered changes by a 'credit' line, or is it a 'pixel' line? Have you checked your sequence settings so that they are matching the correct resolution and aspect for your footage? Are you having to render your original video on the timeline without adding any extra layers or effects?

Muse Horizontal Preview does not match Design

I am having an issue with the preview (in safari on mac and pc) not working correctly. The length of the site pages are working on longer pages, but not shorter pages. Everything is working fine on IE on my pc. I am attaching screen shots of the design and preview pages; and the existing site can be viewed at www.deklintech.com. I have been working on this for quite some time and have not been able to find a fix. Hopefully someone will be able to help?

Hi Pamela,
Can you please uncheck sticky footer from the site properties, because if sticky footer is enabled it stretches the length of the page so that the footer is always at the bottom of the screen.

With color management, color picker current color does not match canvas color

What gives here with color picker in CS3?
RGB doc
using color management/profiles
View>>proof color using my Epson RGB printer profile
create box
double click fill box in palette box to view color picker
pick color from spectrum area
close color picker
want to change color of box
double click fill box to view color picker
NOW current color does not match color on canvas, subtle but vexing color shift. So how can I use current color to pick a new color on the canvas is always different.
here's an in illustration of the problem:

Rob, here's screenshot of Acrobats Output Preview Object Inspector. You can download my PDF here - //www.fileswap.com/dl/Q1CzzOzEqt/
I'm not sure if CM was assigned to document when created or afterwards. In Color Settings preferences is stated Fogra 39 (if it matters - document was meanwhile saved and opened...). Are there other options to assign workspace to exsisting document?
Peter, this is not the case. Placed image has embeded same color profile as is working space of document in ID. I tried the same with sRGB image placed in same ID document and compared it to PS but color shift (greenish) is present - it looks exactly the same.
Guys, I can't tell you how happy I am to have you help me with this terrible and nerve-wracking problem.

Colors in print preview not matching colors in soft proofing

Hi There,
Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. Please see attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors.
I would appreciate if anybody could point me in the right direction in what is causing this difference. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.
Thank you.
Best regards,
D.

Here are some addtional details:
PS 13.1.2
Mac OS X 10.8.4
12 GB Ram
60 GB free disk space
I printed the same photo from two other computers (MacBook and iMac) with different PS versions (CS4 and CS5). The prints turned out identical to the first one which matches the print preview color rendition on my main computer (MacPro) running CS6. Strangely the colors in print preview of CS5 on the iMac renders the colors identical to the soft proofing colors.

Color does not match printing in preview

Printing a photo directly from iPhoto ('08) does not match the color on screen. Using an Epson 2200.
The colors are dark and saturated. Maybe the problem is setting color management in the advanced dialog box- I have it set to: "No Color Adjustment" as per Epson.
Is there a setting that is recommended? I can't find any help in help.
I'm well aware of color management problems printing via Photoshop with the Epson printer.

PS Elements 11 -- Incorrect Colors, color painted not matching color selected -- Help please!

Having a really odd issue with colors. The color that I have in my brush/paint bucket does not match the color that I picked up in my eye dropper/foreground color. Instead it paints out some diluted version of the color I'm using, and I have no idea why. I tried to look up a solution -- I reset the paint brush, all of the tools. And I have no layer styles set on said layers used.
Any ideas how I could fix this? I need too desperately.. And as a side note, I am using RGB for color.

Suggest that you reset the brush tool. On the tool's option bar, look for this:
Click on it to reset the tools. If that does not fix it, go to Edit>Preferences>General and look for for this:
Click on it, close PSE, then open the program.

App Signing Error, Number of Folios Does Not Match the Main Folio File

Hi All;
I have a 250 page standalone app that I am trying to compile for the Apple Store. I read through the forums and enabled "AppBuilderLoggingEnabled.cfg" in my user directory to capture the issue. Here is the snippet of the log that was created that, to me, shows why the app isn't being signed.

I've stripped out special characters from the article titles and re-built the app only to face the same error. I went ahead and created a new AppID in the Apple Developer Portal, created new provision files, and the error remains. I am now creating a new folio and importing the articles into the new folio to see if that will solve the "number of folios does not match" issue.
Any help or insight would be amazing. Thank you all.

I created a new folio and imported all of the articles again. After hitting "Create App" for this new folio, at about 10 pages in a "PDF Export" error stopped the create app process. I went into InDesign to update the layout for the 10th page to see that the PDF export issue was stopping me from updating the layouts as well. Something in the InDesign file wasn't playing nice with the folio creation, so I created two new InDesign files, deleted the article, and built a new article from scratch. I was able to import the new layouts as a new article to the main folio and hit "Create App" again. This time there were no issues with the creation process. I synched up the provision files in App Builder and was able to code sign the application.
I guess the moral of the story is to double and even triple check every article along the way to make sure there are no issues being introduced into the process that will ultimately cause headaches during the distribution phase of app creation!
