Colors look different in titler than on timeline

Colors look different in titler than on timeline. Here's a screen grab. The upper image is the program monitor and the lower image is the titler. Both are on the same monitor.
I guess it's a bug and I will report it but I wonder if anyone else is seeing this.

What is your Premiere Monitor Playback Res set at?
What is the Preview Setting?
Jims advice is useless in this instance. He expects you to do an output file everytime you make a tweak in Titler or Sequence just to see what you might abitrarily be getting.

Split line/tone Pantone swatches of same color look different

QUESTION: In Illustrator I need to split a Pantone color into two different swatches (line and tone). When I duplicate the swatch and rename it with an "L" in front, the color looks different (with overprint preview)! Same CMYK values – I checked. I know it has something to do with how the swatch is named, because if I rename both swatches I don't have this problem. What's going on and how can I fix this?

John Danek wrote:
Not sure, but I would not recommend renaming Pantone Spot color swatches. What's the point? I mean, why would you mess with the names?
I think they wants to use one swatch for certain parts of elements like the stroke and and perhaps the other for fills but of different and not necessarily common paths.
Changing the name make it easier for them to know which is applied to the other. There coud be a reason to keep them separate and to have the names be different to make the work flow effiecient.
I think the reason is that since they are now two different swatches it treats it as two different inks one from the book and the other from a CMYK mix.
It simply does not recognize the second swatch as a book color which would have to be a second plate with the same ink.
You cannot rename a book color.
So unless you were planning to hit the piece with two plates with the same spot color what you want to do is not possible.
I can see where you want this but I see no way of fixing it except a feature request.
Perhaps placing the same swatch in two different color groups?

Colors look different in browser window than in InDesign or Photoshop

So, the colors look quite different (brighter) on Kuler (in
my Firefox browser window), than when I download or copy the CMYK
numbers exactly over to InDesign or Photoshop. In Kuler, the colors
are significantly brighter and more saturated than how they appear
in my design software.
My coworker theorizes that InDesign & Photoshop are
'compensating' for how the color will actually look when printed.
Thoughts? Is there a setting I need to change on either
Firefox or my Adobe software so the colors match up?

I have a similar problem - colours look brigher in Firefox,
IE and Photoshop, darker in Illustrator and Dreamweaver. I've tried
resetting the color settings in Bridge, but still get the same
difference between Photoshop, and Illustrator and Dreamweaver. I
can't understand this at all. I don't know if it has something to
do with the fact that I have a color profile called "Natural Color
Pro" installed on my computer (came with the monitor) which
Photoshop reminds me is faulty every time I open it - I tell it to
ignore the profile. I don't seem to be able to uninstall it for
some reason.

Swing applet looks different in browser than in applet viewer

I'm developing an applet using Net Beans 5.0. When I run the applet in the applet viewer I get a totally different look and feel than when I run the applet in a web broser. The background colors are different, the buttons are a totally different style and color, and some buttons that show up essentially transparent in the applet viewer are totally opaque in the browser.
The applet viewer is the one that looks like the interface that I designed in the Net Beans GUI builder, so can anyone tell me how I make it look the same in a Web Browser?

It looks like you're right, so how do I ensure that
my applet will look the same on different versions of
JVM? There's got to be a way, right??yes. you should look into javas pluggable look and feel system.
the cross-platform (java) look and feel changed dramatically between versions 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5.
however, if you use another look and feel, such as motif, or perhaps your system's look and feel (windows, mac, etc), the program should look pretty much the same (perhaps a little different, but not like the differences in the Java look and feel).
if you want to be COMPLETELY sure that they will always look the same, select a third party look and feel that comes packaged in a jar file that you are free to distribute with your applet.
Some good third party look and feels are JGoodies Plastic, and Incors Alloy. And there are others.
if you use one of those, it should look pretty well the same on all platforms, and in all JVM's.

Pdf color looks different in preview and acrobat?

I notice that the colors in various PDF files I have look different in Preview and in Acrobat. Is there some weird color profile issue?
To be specific, I can create a PDF file in various ways, of a slide deck I originally created using Keynote. It has various different color blocks in the slides. In particular some acid green colors look very different depending on whether I open the PDF in Acrobat or in Preview.
Preview shows the colors as they were in the original keynote application. But Acrobat shows them far more muted.
I learned from another post that if I create the PDF by first saving to postscript and then creating the PDF using Acrobat, the issue seems to go away. However this is very inconvenient.
In short, it seems as though there is some peculiar difference between the way Preview and Keynote (and probably Pages ) handle color and the way Acrobat handles color.
Is there some way to fix this using some setting in one of the programs?
By the way, this is not a new problem. I noticed it with previous OS's as well as previous versions of Keynote. I am currently using the latest version of everything.

Same problem here. I was printing a PDF that my designer had sent me. Before I have always used Acrobat, but I've started using Preview in Leopard since it's faster and more powerful than before. But the colors were seriously wrong, often reversed completely. I believe this file was originally created in Illustrator.

Color Looks Different in Aperture Viewer Compared to Full Screen

The color in my photos looks different depending on how I view them. In Aperture's Viewer and in Photoshop Elements 6, it looks what I consider to be normal. In Aperture's Full Screen view, and in other applications such as Preview and Safari, the colors look super-saturated: much more vibrant than in real life.
The photos were imported into Aperture as JPEGs, directly from my camera. Previews are turned off in Aperture, and I have it set to export using sRGB. I'm using an external Dell display that's been calibrated with Spyder2 Express. Turning on Onscreen Proofing in Aperture (and trying different profiles) doesn't seem to change the display in the Viewer at all.
How can I make the color in the Viewer match the color in other applications? It's hard to edit when I can't accurately see what I'm doing.

Thanks for the quick and helpful reply! I didn't know there was such a thing as a default display, but after setting that to the external the photos look good again.
I guess I wasn't using the right search terms, but after reading your reply I was able to find this huge thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1394928&start=0&tstart=0
It seems to me that this is an OS bug, because the images were displaying incorrectly in Preview, Safari, etc. Each display has been calibrated and has a ColorSync profile, and the OS knows which display the window is on, so it should be able to figure out which profile to use.

Photos look different in Photoshop than when viewed with Picture Viewer

I am running Windows XP, using Photoshop CS2, with a Samsung SyncMaster LCD monitor. I have recently noticed that my picures look different when viewing with Picture Viewer than when the same picture is opened in Photoshop. The photoshop version is much lighter while the pic viewer version is darker. I want to make sure of what I'm sending to my online printers. Do I have color setting wrong? My color setting in Photoshop are: sRGB IEC61966-2.1, U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2, Dot Gain 20%, and Dot Gain 20%. And preserved embedded profiles for RGB, CMYK, and Gray. Is the problem with calibrating my monitor, and if so, do you know of any free calibration software? I'm on a budget.
I appreciate any help. Thanks.

Well, it surely is a problem with your monitor settings, but, forgive me for saying this, mentioning "sending stuff to the printers" and then asking for free calibration software is a bit naive. If Adobe Gamma, the settings in PS itself and the color calibration in Windows don't cut it, then your system is seriously bent in terms of color and some other steps are required first.
a) reset your monitor to its default color temperature and brightness
b) get rid of any color tweaking your graphics card may introduce
With a clean slate, create a color reference image (pure colors, grayscale gradient) with all color calibration turned off and see how it looks at the system level and in PS. Now you can begin to adjust settings everywhere and re-enable color profiles until the results match in sRGB space.
The rest is pretty much unpredictable. Unless you gain access to the exact color profiles of the target device (the printer) and your monitor is properly hardware calibrated, there will always be minute variations. The only thing you can do is to solely rely on your visually aligned sRGB setup and have all color profile adjustments and color space conversions done at your printer. However, even that's assuming you do not wander too far off the default values and the sRGB is indeed "intact".

Print job looks different in html than it did in Flash preview

I have created a .swf that contains several movie clips. I have inserted a print button in each movie clip - and managed to get everything in working order on the Flash end of things. Then I inserted the .swf into a new HTML document in Dreamweaver. So far so good - but when I preview in the browser and hit the print button in one of the nested movie clips, the output looks different than it did when testing it in flash.
My main .swf has a dark blue background so I used a large white rectangle to act as the background of the movie clips so it would not waste a lot of ink. When I print from the browser, the background is blue and the large white rectangle I see in Flash does not appear.
This is the first time that what I insert in Dreamweaver doesn't match up with my Flash preview. Can anyone help?

I'm still not sure why it looked different when inserted into an HTML file. However, I went back into my flash file and changed the document background to white and added a blue rectangle instead of the blue background with a white rectangle in the movie clip for printing - this seems to have solved my problem.
Thanks to anyone thinking about my problem!

2 files with exact the same PMS color look different

I was working on a print project for my company and all files are created in Illustrator CC. Here is the confusing part, in this logo color file I found from the company inside files, the PMS color code actually matches the CMYK color code, and they look exactly the same on screen:
But on all the files I'm working on, the PMS color looks washed, when using the convert button to convert PMS to CMYK, the code looks different too:
Is there a file color setting I need to change? Besides illustrator, the PMS color in Photoshop cc and InDesign cc all look wash out.

The Color Mode of the swatch only impacts how the the color appears on your monitor. The important thing is that the Color Type always be "Spot Color" regardless of the Color Mode when you're dealing with files for print. If it's set to Spot Color, then exporting the file to film will have a single color pass. If it's set to Process Color you'll get 1-4 color passes when exporting depending on your CMYK values.
For the company's branding guide, you have both color options depending on how the logo will be printed. If you had something that included a photo, then you would want to use the CMYK version of the logo because you're already going to have CMYK values from the photo. Using an additional spot color just for the logo then makes it a 5-color job, thus increasing the cost. If you were printing something that only used black for text and also included the logo, then you would use the PMS version as this makes it a 2-color print job.
In some circumstances you don't have an option of a CMYK break of a PMS color, such as metallics and fluorescents. Some companies only print their logo in a spot color despite having it as part of a 4-color print just due to how a CMYK version of their logo appears. Not every PMS color has a 100% accurate CMYK break. Most frequently the CMYK version is dull compared to the PMS color simply because the gamut for CMYK is not as diverse as the full range of PMS colors are.

Colors rendering differently to original final cut timeline

i have color corrected all the shots in a video i am working on but when it comes to rendering the footage, everything comes out differently. i have used many different options to render out. share>youtube, export via qucktime conversion, and i have also used compressor. is there anything i can do to keep the colour i see in my timeline.

I'm starting to make a lot of web content including video. The average Mac user will be watching videos on the new Quicktime Player 10. Some of my content looks horrid on Player 10, but great on properly preference ticked Player 7.
It seems pointless to be pacified by choosing to watch our Final Cut exports on Player 7 with the Final Cut compatibility box checked when almost none of our audience can be expected to have done that.
I really don't know what Apple's QuickTime engineers expect content providers to do when they designed a spiffy new player (10) that doesn't properly display the color in Apple software produced content. It really tests my loyalty.
The end of the joke is that my H264 video from Final Cut Pro actually looks more accurate in Windows Media Player than Quicktime 10.
How about upgrading the QT player 10 with a simple gamma and color fix?
Would be great if a discussion mediator could provide a work around, or some kind of assurance that something is being done to make it easier for content providers to get matching at least across Apple OS users machines. If anyone has any more info or answers to this topic, please let me know here.

Page looks different in Dreamweave than online...why?

This is a fairly basic question, but it's driving me nuts! When I look at my menu in dreamweaver, it looks like this:
But when it's live it looks normal, like this:
Does anyone know why that happens? I think it has something to do with the

in the menu DIV tag but it's the only way I know how to position the menu where I want it.
Also, what is that black box off to the left side in the first screen shot? I can't find anything in my code that would create it. Here is the style sheet code (still a work in progress, please bear with me):

IWeb looks different in program than published on web

I understand that some of the Fonts I use to create in iWeb won't necessarily translate the same to all computers....but why is the spacing getting messed up as well? This happens most frequently when I use textboxes or pictures in frames, set them to 'Floating,' and arrange them how I want them to look on the page....but then when the site publishes they look totally different online than they do in my iWeb.
How can I at least keep them consistent?? Help!!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. For maximum font compatibility across different computers you should use Web Safe Fonts. Otherwise if a computer doesn't have that font it will substitute one which may not fit the layout.
An alternative is to apply a drop shadow to the text box and set its opacity to zero. That will convert it to an image file which will display the same on all computers. If you have iWeb's preferences set to indicate text boxes that have been converted this is what you'll see in iWeb:
Click to view full size
However, it will add "weight" to the page causing it to load slower in browsers. That should be avoided if at all possible.

Pages vs PDF: Colors look different in the print out

I'm currently creating some templates for letters in pages and I encountered irregularities when printing directly from pages versus printing the PDF from Acrobat.
This is the workflow:
I created the Logo in Adobe Illustrator CS4 using CMYK color definition. After saving a JPEG or EPS I inserted the logos in my Pages document. Then I exported the document as PDF with maximum quality.
What happens now is, that the printed PDF looks closer to the original Illustrator logo (JPEG and EPS). When printed directly in Pages, the color shifts to a much brighter and very different Blue.
What can I do to get the same results when printing from the two programms?

Color Looks Different In Bridge

I just updated to Windows Vista Ultimate on a 64-bit machine. I have an Eizo CE240W monitor and calibrate with Gretag-Macbeth's Eye-One.
I was processing my first job and noticed a huge difference in the way the photos looked in Bridge than they did in in ACR and Photoshop.
The colors in bridge are much more saturated and red.
I've synchronized my color settings (my default RGB is ProPhoto RGB).
So, I'm guessing that Bridge renders thumbnails and previews in some other color space (sRGB maybe?).
Any workflow tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Lincoln

Hi Rob,
The photos are RAW converted to DNG and I shoot my camera in Adobe RGB. But, in ACR, I set the default color space to ProPhoto RGB. When the photos open up in Photoshop, they look the way I wanted them to and like they did in ACR.
If I run image processor and convert the RAW files to sRGB JPEGs, they look like the Bridge preview, not like they did in ACR. But if I open the sRGB JPEG and the original RAW file in Photoshop, they look pretty close once they are in Photoshop together.
The difference is in Bridge. The colors are not being displayed accurately. I'm wondering if it's Adobe setting or a Windows setting that causing the issue (I'm on Vista now).
So, I think Bridge is displaying in sRGB, but when you open a file up in ACR and Photoshop, it displays in ProPhoto RGB. The difference is pretty significant and it would be great to have the photos look similar in Bridge and Photoshop. Maybe if I switch to Adobe RGB, I'll have better luck.
Peter, I'm using CS3 with the latest upgrades.
Thanks for posting to my thread!
