Color Value read out in Library as in Develop

Some times I need to check color values while culling/organizing in the library module. I don't want to have to switch to Develop just to check a patch of color and then switch back again to library.
If this is already possible I have missed it.

Key point: this isn't just an export problem, I'm seeing it in the app itself (difference between Library and Develop).
The standard-sized preview in Lr Develop module can on occasions be significantly different in appearance to 1:1 previews in develop module and those in the Library module or even exported photos. The underlying cause is that Lr does not have any sharpening or noise correction applied to standard-sized previews in the Develop module and this results in the image appearing a lot more saturated than it really is. One way to reduce the discrepancy is to avoid over sharpening or applying too much color noise correction to your photos. Other than these there isn't a whole lot more that can be done to fix the discrepancy.

How to read out the scale values of an intensity graph?

My aim is to read OUT the scale ranges (Max and min values DISPLAYED) of an intensity graph.
I want to do a scan of an area, display the result in the graph, graphically zoom in on something interesting and then use the zoom coordinates to define the area for the next scan.
Is that possible, and how?
If impossible, is there a work-around?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Use the "XScale.Range" and "YScale.Range" property nodes.

Read color values for swatches in InDesign CS5, js

Hi,
I need to read color values for swatches. I got this in OMV and was hoping it would give me an array of the color values for all existing swatches, but I am only getting "Object color":
mySwatches = myDoc.swatches[1].getElements();
alert (mySwatches)
Thank you for your help.
Yulia

Hi Yulia,
Try this:
var
    mD = app.activeDocument, // document
    mS = mD.swatches, // document swatches
    gS = 4, // swatch index
    mC = [mS[gS].name, mS[gS].colorValue, mS[gS].space]; // swatch properties
alert(mC.join("\r"));
Hope that helps.

How do I input a specific color value for a shape?

I've been trying to figure out why I cannot input a specific color that I want for a shape. I'm not just choosing a color that looks nice, I'm trying to match it to a solid color in the next clip. Ive tried to use the eye dropper to get the color from the next clip but I cannot copy anything outside of the color pallete provided. I know the value of the color (from 0-255 it's R:191, G:211, B:217) but all FCPX has is 0 - 1, which is some other kind of color value system I've never seen before. Does anyone know how I can put that specific color value into the shape generator?

Click the color swatch to open the Apple color picker. This is common to all Mac apps.
Click the second tab for color sliders. Change the popup to RGB.

Consistent RGB Color Values with Photoshop CS4: An Impossibility??

What I want is very simple: I want the Photoshop files I am working on and the rendered PNGs in my browser to have the same color values. I don't care if my web images look the same color on other screens or anything like that. All I want is for the screenshots of PNGs my web browser to match the color values I have used in Photoshop. I've had it up to here with color shiftsthis did not used to be an issue in CS3.
Moreover, if I save a file on my Mac, and a color value is, say, #cf4640, I want someone who opens the file on a Windows box to get the same color value for that pixel. Ditto for the images I have saved for the webI want the RGB values to be consistent. This does not seem like too much to ask, does it?
Right now, I have turned all color management policies set to Off, working spaces are all set to Generics, and documents are set to "Don't Color Manage"my Windows colleagues also have these same settings. This used to work as expected in CS3we all got the same color values on the same files, and colors didn't shift when viewed in a browser.
Once again, I don't care if the colors *look* the same from platform to platform or screen to screen. I just want consistent RGB values.
Color management has never caused me anything but headachesleave my colors alone, Photoshop! I really really wish there was a "Work Like Photoshop 4" setting for color management.
Does anyone have any ideas how I might solve my problems?
Thanks very much.
Oh, and, incidentally, I was originally thinking of calling Adobe about this; how foolish of me. I looked into it, and can I just say how fantastic it is that you have to pay extra money for actual first-party tech support on a $700 piece of software?

The sounds/language analogy isn't really relevant to this problem, because it suggests transforming between two entirely different media. One medium: the medium of sound information, to another entirely different medium: the medium of thoughts and meanings. That's something that simply can't be done without an intermediate translation. That's not the case with color transforms in the RGB space, where it's just a matter of taking RGB values and pushing them through a matrix to produce other RGB values. That's the process that messes everyone up and creates all the confusing color output, and frankly it's an unnecessary process. Your assertion that the values in a source image have no meaning without an associated profile isn't entirely true. What if those source values were simply pushed directly though to the display? After all, a display simply renders 8 bits of R, 8 bits of G, and 8 bits of B for each pixel.
I think the original poster has some very valid concerns. Sometimes we just want to set some color values, and know that everybody's display, on every platform, will render those color values the same way. As he said, they may not look identical to the eye, but the values going through that DVI cable will be setting that pixel to the same 24-bit value no matter what. That's how things would be if there were no such thing as color management. That's how things used to be long ago, and in many ways the world of color was far more predictable and less confusing back then.
Here's my vision for a perfect world: color management doesn't exist in the RGB space. None. No such thing. Source RGB values in images get pushed right through to the display. The onus is on the display manufacturers to produce hardware that renders those values as consistently as possible. In the world of print, sure- color management is incredibly useful. But if only we could go back in time and keep color profiles out of our RGB, I believe we'd be much better off today.

Color value shift from Illustrator to Photoshop

Hi there:
Hopefully someone has an answer for me (my apologies if this has been addressed before)?
When I open up a EPS file in Illustrator, the blacks read !00% for RGB. When exported as a JPG, Photoshop reads it as 0-0-0. So far so good. But when copy and paste the same EPS into a Photoshop files, as a smart object, the values change to 4-7-7. I've tried that with other colors, and it seems the color values shift when using as a smart object. Any ideas on why and how to remedy this?
I will also post in the Illustrator forum as well...
Thanks,
Lisa

Color spaces are a little complicated.
Best practice is to pick one and use it for every application.
Adobe (1998) has been regarded as a great standard for years.
If you are using s-RGB you and going into CMYK, you will probably always get color shift.
Bruce Fraser used to refer to s-RGB as "Satan RGB."
It has a very small color gamut and almost everyone has it by default because it is the Windows standard and unless the system was calibrated and planned, s-RGB will be everywhere (as intended).
Unfortunate that printing uses CMYK and the web uses the RGB.
Newer printing technology can use RGB but the s-RGB will limit your color spectrum.
Also you can set the conversion settings to preserve either the numerical values or perceptual intent...or turn them off in your preference panel.
If your final work product is in RGB (anything viewed on a monitor), I suggest that you work in RGB and not CMYK and use the Adobe 1998 standard on every machine and every program. (You can set your info palette to see both sets of numbers)
Everyone has their own opinion, the key is to be consistent.
And dont let all the tech-speak freak you... there is lots of information out there but you are in charge how you use it.

Change the color of the outer line of a shape

Hello I'm trying to create a rectangle with a red border and no inside fill. It's only to highlight some text of a bank form.
I know i have to right click the layer and choose blending options and stroke. But I've tried to change the color so many times and no matter what I do, the outer line remains gray and with rounded corners.
I want the corners of the rectangle to be squared, not rounded but I'm having a hard time changing this.
Please help
I'm using Photoshop CS3
thank you
Could anyone please show a picture of where to change the color of the outer line? I've tried everything.

Hi,
With Ps CS3, you'll probably want to define a Layer Style for a Stroke and then use that with the Square Shape Layers.
This is a Stroke of 4 px, 'Centered' (so a very slight corner rounding on the outside edge. 'Inside' will give you square corners for both inside and outside edges). To change the color of the stroke, go to Layer> Layer Style> Stroke and change the color by clicking on the color bar.

steve

How to read out and modify text parts in a pdf-document?

Hello,
My problem is the following: I want to read out text passages of an existing pdf-file, compare them with files in an odbc-database and write down the results of that comparison in the same pdf-file. The term is: Read out a number in the file, search the database for the matching user-name, generate a field in the pdf and write down the search results in that.
i have read that this could be possible with acrobat...my version is an acrobat 9 pro extended...
could someone please tell me how to do that?
big thanks

As the definition of “color” vs. “black and white” differ by context – there aren’t any that I am aware of.
You can, however, use the Preflight feature built into Acrobat to identify whatever you wish…

Call the apple store you got it from and ask them. Sometimes in the past they've extended the 'no questions asked return' but only Apple can tell you for sure.

How can I convert CMYK PDF file to Spot Color from a standard Spot Library?

Hi,
I have PDF file that is in CMYK colors. Can I use Adobe Pro X to convert the document to Spot Color from a established spot library like the PANTONE PC? Is there a plugin to do it?
Amit.

In method HMAC, you have towards the bottom
catch(Exception e) {}please change this to
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}Note that using the sun.* classes, including the sun.misc.BASE64Encoder class, requires elevated privileges (see http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=483223&messageID=2255882).
It is not difficult to write your own encoder/decoder class, or borrow one from someone else. Just google on "java base64 encoder".

How to get Document Set property values in a SharePoint library in to a CSV file using Powershell

Hi,

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
AA.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to you want to get document set property value in a SharePoint library and then export into a CSV file using PowerShell.
I suggest you can get the document sets properties like the PowerShell Command below:
[system.reflection.assembly]::loadwithpartialname("microsoft.sharepoint")
$siteurl="http://sp2013sps/sites/test"
$listname="Documents"
$mysite=new-object microsoft.sharepoint.spsite($siteurl)
$myweb=$mysite.openweb()
$list=$myweb.lists[$listname]
foreach($item in $list.items)
if($item.contenttype.name -eq "Document Set")
if($item.folder.itemcount -eq 0)
write-host $item.title
Then you can use Export-Csv PowerShell Command to export to a CSV file.

Placing images in Illustrator changes their color values-Why?

I've been placing photoshop tiff files into Illustrator, and doing this seems to change the color values, when I sample them with the eyedropper tool. The images I made use a custom mix of CMYK rich black, with the K set to 100. In Illustrator, they appear to revert to the default 'Photoshop black", approx C75 M68 Y67 K90. This is not my intent of C70 M60 Y58 K100. The Illustrator document is CMYK mode, and I don't know why this is happening. The non-image items (vectors) in my illustrator file DO retain the color values I intended, however.
Is this some kind of setting I can change in Illustrator? Will this discrepancy show up when this file goes to print? Please help! Thanks.

WHen the image is not embedded, Illustrator samples the representation values. Those are handled by color management.

Preserving Black color values when converting color PDF to grayscale

I opened a full colored PDF document (exported from InDesign using Profile: Euroscale Coated v2) in Photoshop and tried to convert it to grayscale (image > mode > grayscale) and noticed that the black color values changed. text for example that was 100% black in the PDF document became a screen of 91% black.
is there a way to preserve color values when converting full color PDF documents to grayscale?
or in other words WHICH is the correct way to convert full color PDF documents or full color InDesign files to grayscale?
I am using Adobe CS 3, Acrobat 8 Professional, on Mac OS 10.5.5

Before you open the PDF in Photoshop, set PS's Color Settings to Photoshop 5 Default Spaces. When you open the PDF set the Mode to Grayscale in the Import dialog. Just remember to reset your color settings when you're done.
Edit: Also, if you want to match black percentages as well as 100% black, set the Photoshop Color Settings to Photoshop 5 Default Spaces with the Gray working space to Dot Gain 20%.
