Color profile name

Please let me know on how to get the color profile used in an eps file. In Photoshop scirpting there is method colorProfileName to get the profile name.
I hope this method is not available in Illustrator scripting.

  • Display image color profile

    Can LR display the ICC color profile name of an image ?
    Had to turn to Photoshop
    to retreive that info I had forgotten to add in the file name ( "Picture_zzz_xxxPrinter_yyyPaper_profile_nnnDPI_WxH.tif" )
    pretty basic, isn't it ?
    Moreover long filenames are truncated and show only in metadata File Name block in right panel.
    But that's another story !

    Dear DLScreative,
    please let us not fight over words - fact is, that with at least 2 totally different users and 4 different Mac computers Aperture 3.x behaves totally different (i.e. cannot display these images) than Aperture 2.x. The special color profile is embedded because 15.000 images were scanned with a Nikon LS5000
    scanner. I don't know how to upload this color profile (which has been tested to be correct) to this
    forum. Would you care if I sent you an E-Mail with the special profile attached so you could yourself
    try and see?

  • Color space/profile name

    I have some pictures that don't show a thumbnail in iPhoto. The info dialog for them says the Color Space is "Gray" and the Profile name is "Gr?skala - gamma 2,2". If I double-click on of these the enlarged image seems somewhat faded. The picture looks fine if I just view it directly in Preview, or ColorSync Utility. It seems most pictures have a Color Space of RGB, how to I change the Color Space of these files to RGB?

    Justin:
    Download the Automator application "Embed sRGB Profile" from Toad's Cellar and unzip it. Then locate the original files for those problem images and drop them on it. Next launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library and select the first three options. This should get those images compatible with iPhoto.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    How to make preflight profile witch find out if exist in document spot color with name "CutContour", if not show allert,  I try many combinations but nothing works

    Thanks very much for your help, but I'm still overlooking something. I double checked to make sure that I did not have a hidden .txt file extention. I then decided to abandon the lock on preferences idea until I get it working. I converted my mozilla.cfg file back to plain text. I made sure I do not have an extra blank line at the end of each file. The syntax looks good, as far as I can tell. I'll copy and paste what I have so far. Did I have the file locations correct posted above? Also, if you feel i can delete some lines of text in my mozilla.cfg file I'll be happy to do so.

  • Determine ICC output profile (name) in PDF/X output intent

    Hi all,
    I have a PDF of which I need to determine the ICC output profile (name) of the PDF/X output intent. This is what I have in the 'content stream':
    <</Metadata 6 0 R/OutputIntents[<</DestOutputProfile 7 0 R/Info(OFCOM. ISO 12647-2:2004 / Amd 1, Offset commercial and specialty printing according to ISO 12647-2, paper type 1 or 2 \(gloss or matte coated offset, 115 g/m2\), screen frequency 60/cm.)/OutputConditionIdentifier(FOGRA39)/RegistryName(http://www.color.org)/S/GTS_PDFX/Type/OutputIntent>>]
    How can I, based on this information, determine what the name of the ICC profile in the PDF/X output intent is? Adobe Acrobat's output preview tells me that is should say / find ''ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI)'.
    Thanks in advance.
    Didier

    Thanks! Thought it would be something in that direction. Any tools or libraries you might know that can be used to extract and parse this kind of information (as part of a preflight process or something else)? Adobe tools for instance?

  • Mountain Lion change color profile when use discrete video card

    Sorry, but slightly altering after losing three hours in forums where no one ever answered ...
    Thanks.
    Stefano.

    Let's see...
    Sounds like you're running into an expected issue if you make an alias to removeable media.  The same thing would happen if you made the alias to a folder on a DVD-R disc or CD-R.  If you eject the original, you disable the alias.
    If you copy the entire SD card volume to your drive, the PRIVATE package should copy across.  Then, as a folder on your hard drive rather than a volume on removeable media, you could make an alias to the STREAM package for quicker access later.
    I'm pretty sure that Handbrake, like Prmeiere Pro, can see the MTS files directly.  That is, it's not dependant on the other folders in the PRIVATE directory sturcture.  As such, you could copy the contents of the STREAM package to another folder on your drive.  Just be mindful of the default MTS file names if you're using more than one SD card (you don't want to accidentally copy 00001.MTS from one card over 00001.MTS from another card).
    As long as Handbrake sees MTS directly, you could even rename the MTS files after you've copied them.
    On a side note, I almost always archive my SD cards with the data structure intact.  More often than not, that file structure is important to corretly access the video stored within that structure.  If something unexpected happens while working with the MTS files, it is good to have the original file structure to go back to.  Although, SD cards are getting to be so low cost that sometimes I just label the SD card and store it for archiving.

  • Lightroom 5.6 crashes when images with some color profiles are in import

    I am a recent subscriber to Adobe CC. I run LR 5.6 64bit on my Win 7 PC. Whenever I seek to import images previously processed in iPhoto or LR elements into my catalog, ACC Lightrom crashes. I suspect it is because the original editing program used a different color profile. Adobe techs will not give me an answer when I ask for an overall cure. Are their any technical documents on the web that would enable me to deal with this issue? If so, I cannot find them, and I do not want to call Adobe again and again to get LR 5.6 restored.

    When Lightroom greys out a photo in the Import dialog box, it means the photo is already in the catalog. It doesn't mean that it is matched with an older photo with the same name ... in order for there to be a match, the file name and capture date and file size must be identical.
    So Lightroom thinks you have already imported the photos, and you think the photos have not been imported. Now I'm sure you are a very nice person, but I believe Lightroom. What you need to do is to find the photos in your Library Module and use them there. The photos can be found by searching for them by file name, after turning off all filters, and after clicking on All PHotographs in the Library Module.

  • Color profile confusion

    I'm using Windows 7 home premium, Lightroom 5.2 RC, Photoshop CS6. After working on an image in Lightroom, I went to Photoshop to do some finishing. In the process I wanted to convert the profile from prophoto to sRGB. I expected to see the choice of sRGB_IEC61966-2-1, but the selection was eSRGB, and the other one wasn't even on the list. So I did a Google search and found sRGB_IEC61966-2-1_no_black_scaling.icc but I can't figure out where to install it or even if I need to install it. I know, this isn't a Photoshop forum. But I wondered if anyone here could advise me as to what to do.
    My printed images seem to match fine and so do the prints I get back from a local lab and from MyPublisher. So I'm a little confused. Any ideas?

    Hi Jim I'm also using PS CS6 on Windows 7 64 bit. Color profiles are in this folder:
    C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color
    Below is what my PS CS6 Edit> Convert To Profle> Destination Space proifle list looks like. I have an sRGB IEC61966-2-1 profile, which shows up in the Windows folder as sRGB.icc with sRGB IEC61966-2.1 'Profile Description' name using ExifTool GUI.
    Here's Adobe's color profile download link, but no sRGB profile here so PS is using the Windows installed sRGB profile (sRGB.ICC in the above folder)
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4075
    At bottom of above of the profile list in the above page it has this link:
    http://www.color.org/index.xalter
    ....sRGB v4, and v2 profiles with and without black scaling here:

    Are you confused yet...I am!

  • Reinstating color profiles

    I have a piece of proprietary software which has the unfortunate side-effect of stripping the embedded color profiles from my files.
    I want to reinstate the color profiles without opening the images (jpegs) and re-saving them, because these are for professional use and I would prefer not to suffer the open-save degradation which happens with jpegs.
    I've tried adding the color profile back in using Bridge Tools>Replace Metadata with a suitable metadata template, and this appears to work, in that the line "photoshop:ICCProfile: Adobe RGB (1998)" has been added in the Adobe Photoshop section in the Advanced pane of File Info. But when I try to open the image in Photoshop I get the "The document "XXXX" does not have an embedded RGB profile" dialog.
    So, where else is Photoshop looking to find out if there is an embedded color profile? Is there any other way to reinstate the color profile without opening the file?

    The name of the color profile in the metadata is not the ICC profile--just it's name.
    You'll have to open the file and readd the profile.
    I've seen flames over the years on the Photoshop forums about JPEG resaving and degradation. My take on the arguments is that if the image is unedited, a series of JPEG resaves degrades the image quality someplace between a very tiny amount and zero.

  • Color profiles and export presets

    I shoot RAW, with the color space in the camera set to sRGB, but after importing to Aperture (3.2.4), the Profile name in the metadata inspector is always Adobe RGB.  Why does this transformation come about automatically (i.e., is there some technical rationale for not letting the user decide)?  Can I change  some setting somewhere it so it stays sRGB and then export as Adobe RGB if I need it (i.e, rather than sRGB).  I do a lot of uploading to a website (with printing at home not of primary importance), so working with sRGB all the way through without going to Adobe RGB and back again seems to make more sense.

    EXIF data is really a sort of gray area, while all digital cameras and all digital image software interact with the EXIF fields to some extent there really isn't any one definitive standard of what is put where and exactly what it means apart for the few obvious ones.
    So you're point makes sense but it's  really not an Aperture thing. If you look at the file before importing the field is already filled out.

  • Olympus OM-D EM-5 color profiles

    I guess that people at Adobe are super busy with working on compatibility with the never ending stream of new cameras.
    Since the OM-D is so popular however, I would like to know why it didn't get a set of camera specific color profiles - just the Adobe Standard profile. At least a set of the basic ones (Vivid, Neutral, Muted, Portrait) would be great.
    The EM-5 has a highly praised color rendition, especially for skin tones and I am sure many users would love to get these colors in Lightroom.
    Is there any chance this could be added in?

    richardplondon wrote:
    That is interesting, and I fully understand your points. My comments were aimed at the rather common focus that some people seem to have, of exactly matching the camera JPG. The important point for me, is: can we get the picture that we want, from the Raw - and whether that is the same, or different, compared to a JPG may be completely secondary.
    I am coming to this from the viewpoint of a Pentax owner - where the in-camera JPG treatment is something that divides opinion, rather than getting general approval as with your camera. People talk about the "Pentax greens", and these do seem to get intensified in a way that some people love (and that is hard to simulate using for example Adobe Standard) but that I personally dislike. Adobe Standard gives a much better starting point for me with the K-5, and also with other cameras, so I have consistently tried to make that work.
    It is also worth making the point that these profiles are (naturally enough) implemented with different amounts of success and consistency on different cameras, even where they are targeting the same output and appearing under the same name. So "Adobe Standard" may be liked for one model's Raw, and disliked for another model's Raw, by the same person. These are in reality quite independent of each other. Also some Adobe-supplied profiles have been systematically "off" at first, but later improved in product updates (e.g. the Nikon D7000, as I understand it).
    What I have done, and it took only a couple of minutes, is to extract embedded profiles using the DNG Profile Editor - out of DNGs taken with the Pentax camera set to Neutral, Portrait, Vibrant or whatever - and then to save these named suitably, into my profiles list in LR. So they are now available if I want them - even though Adobe may never provide these AFAIK.
    I agree that to manually tweak colours "by eye" within the DNG profile editor, is going to be quite difficult and unpredictable. On the other hand, we have camera calibration sliders inside LR also. These can be used and developed more interactively, right inside LR, to our satisfaction, and then included into our Develop default - or else into one or more develop presets.  Perhaps if you can isolate out what exactly is going on with the skin tones, you can make use of such adjustments on top of a profile that you already have. These will then become live parameters of each image, allowing variation as desired - rather than needing to always conform to the setup of one centrally stored profile.
    regards, RP
    How did you extract the profiles from the DNG files? That is exactly what I want to do. Are there any pointers on how to do this? I'm somewhat familar with DNG profile editor but I don't see how to do this.

    Thanks in Advance.

    I used another profiles name, because I dont have the old one installed anymore, Youll have to be exact about the letters though.
    And from a prepress-standpoint Id like to point out that removing the profile as opposed to »Convert to Profile« seems a peculiar practice, though of course Your reasons for doing so may be valid indeed.
    You could try:
    var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
    if (myDocument.colorProfileName == "U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2") {

    var idassignProfile = stringIDToTypeID( "assignProfile" );

    In all honesty, I've never had occasion to think about any such "reconciliation".  I've never re-named a profile's file name in the Finder, and in the few cases where I've run into a discrepancy there, I just make it a point to remember the internal name and forget about the other one.

  • Color Profile Issue Vista x64

    Hi..
    I’m having the a problem but on Windows Vista Business X64. I installed an Acer LCD (X223w Q) yesterday for desktop expansion and updated its drivers automatically it installed the device drivers from God knows where and  since then the Photoshop has gone all crazy it always asks to select color profile when opening the file. Claiming that "The RGB document "try.bmp" has a file format that doesn't support embedded color profiles". It does the same for everything.
    I’ve tried your solution from the following link
    http://lalor.net/index.php/2009/02/photoshop-colour-management-reset/
    but the the OS doesn’t allow me to remove any color profile claiming that its system profile and can’t be removed. I’ve un-installed LCD drivers but it color profile Acer X223W is still showing in the advanced panel in ICC profile along with sRGB IEC61966-2.1 both have a file name and a class name 'display' written against them..
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled graphics drivers as well as photoshop but nothing seems to be working. No matter what profile I select the photoshop opens it in a dark tint. How ever when I press Ctrl + Y to switch to Proof Colors its gets back to normal colors (My proof settings are set to Monitor RGB)
    Following are my System Details
    Machine : Lenovo 3000 n200
    OS: Windows Vista Business x64
    Graphic Card : Nvidia Geforce Go 7300
    I've never have had this problem before the installation of drivers for that LCD. And after searching the internet for over a day its driving me crazy
    Please review the attachment for details.
    I’d really appreciate if anyone could look into this issue..

    Well, why not simply set the monitor to sRGB again? The location of the physical files is C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Printers\Color. You can delete the profile from there. Also reset PS' color management completely (Edit --> Color). I'm sure the warning has its reasons because based on your (wrong) monitor profile PS thinks it needs to compensate based on your CM policies...
