Creating Color Anaglyphs in Photoshop-2D to 3D Conversion

Hi all—
My question is about creating Anaglyphs in Photoshop from 2D line art/comic art—NOT photographs. I want them to remain in full color, not like the grayscale stuff you see everywhere. Each image will be viewed on an empty white background.
Can I effectively print 3-D images in 4-color process? Spot colors are fine as well.
I have attached some artwork that is similar to what I will be outputting. Is anyone familiar with this process? Where do I start? I DO NOT want to use cameras if at all possible.
Thanks in advance!

I don't have a 3D TV yet but these tips/instructions look pretty helpful. Thanks for posting, BBMG!
Nothing I post is an official statment of Best Buy or Geek Squad, it is only a helpful opinion!

Creating a Spot Color Channel in Photoshop

Can anyone teach me how to make a Spot Color Channel on Photoshop? I am using this image as an example. The blue color in the background needs to be printed mostly with a spot color that is close to the original painting color (ex: Pantone Blue 072C) . But the CMYK color still should be present in within the blues to resemble the subtle nuances of the brush strokes. I can’t figure it out on my own.
For more samples of painting images, please go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/batzorig
The reason I am doing this is because the artist’s works were represented on many publications over the years from many different countries. And we found out that CMYK color alone cannot duplicate the blue color very well (I mean the blue only, no problem with other colors). I know, it is hard to believe, but if you see all the publications and compare it to the original art, you would see the huge difference in color saturation and luminosity. That is the reason, I think it is necessary to use a spot blue for an upcoming catalog of the artist.
It will be a huge help in my work progress if I learn to make the Spot Color Channel. Then I can talk with the printers about this method.

Understanding color space diagrams for CIE(1931) and CIELab isn't easy,
but gradually one gets used to interpret them by intuition.
(1) helps understanding CIE(1931) chromaticity.
The horseshoe contour contains all possible colors with luminance left
out. Indicated colors are just for orientation. Yellow is the 'locus' for
bright yellow and brown (dark yellow) as well. White is the locus for
white and black - colors without saturation at a certain center. For two
colors on the same ray to the center, the color with larger distance is
more brilliant or vibrant.
You're right - adding green and orange ink in Hexachrome doesn't
extend the gamut at the blue side. But Cyan and Magenta (and Yellow
and Black) are different to common CMYK inks as well, and this
delivers more brilliant blues.
(2) shows the effect, now in CIELab in a horizontal slice for constant
lightness. Besides theoretical aspects, the diagram can be (again) inter-
preted by intuition.
The complete diagram is threedimensional. A shown color is not just
a placeholder (as in the CIE chromaticity diagram) but a more or less
correct reproduction, as good as possible, depending on the medium.
It seems indeed that there are few print houses using Hexachrome,
but (3) is one of them.
What's to do for the actual catalog? Printing by inkjet would be a
solution, because inkjets can use additional inks like Green, Orange,
Blue, mostly by replacing standard inks like LightCyan, LightMagenta,
Gray. The inkjet can be calibrated by GretagMacbeth ProfileMaker's
Multicolor Module. That would be very expensive. Even without
additional inks the blues can be reproduced fairly good.
As already said - just adding a Spot Blue would cure the problem
for some paintings, but there is no systematical workflow.
If Hexachrome is not an option, then one may try to modify the
blue in the image by shifting it towards cyan with less lightness,
which is better printable.
Of course wrong, but what finally counts is the impression.
A friend of mine is a famous German photographer for calendars
and tourist guide books which contain plenty images with blue skies.
So far he got almost always pleasant print results - by applying
appropriate image processing with Soft Proofing in Photoshop.
Examples are in (4).
It would be nice, if somebody who is practically working with
Hexachrome or other Multicolor processes could contribute.
About this question:
I don't know if it is about LAB colors or Hexachrome colors.
The CIE (1931) color space appears mainly by two representations:
1. CIE xyY Chromaticity diagram (horseshoe)
2. CIELab = Lab
These are color spaces which contain all possible colors. Spot inks
and primary inks (Pantone, CMYK, Hexachrome CMYKOG) can
be shown in all diagrams.

What JJMack said. An example I pulled in less than 5 minutes:
All I did was inserted a text layer with that same inside color and a stroke layer style with that same outside color (about 3 or 4 pixels; outside position). Font used was Calibri Regular.

Color problems in photoshop cs5 and bridge

Recently, whenever I open images in photoshop or view them in Bridge, they look desaturated. In Bridge, they load normal at first but after a couple of seconds, they become desaturated and I can't figure out what the problem is. I have all of the same color management settings as before, the only difference on my computer since the colors stopped working was that my computer installed windows updates. The images look fine when viewing them in the Windows viewer, and in other programs like ACDSee, etc. It only looks like this in Adobe programs. I checked in Bridge under Creative Suite color settings, and it is under North America General Purpose 2. In Photoshop, I checked color settings, and all of them are marked as convert to working rgb, cmyk, etc. Any suggestions?

The monitor color profile tells Photoshop and the other color managed programs how your monitor displays colors. Color profile files are installed by putting them in C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color. Then to assign or confirm a color profile for your monitor, you use the Color Management control panel. Under the Devices tab when 'Use my settings for this device" is checked, the color profile currently in used is the one which name ends with (default). For example 'Dell U2410 color Profile, D650 (default)'.
You can download the color profile for you monitor from here http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?releaseid=R279694&formatcnt=0&libi d=0&fileid=413637
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?releaseid=R279694&formatcnt=0&libi d=0&fileid=413637
it downloads a .exe file which is simply a decompressor like .zip files. Run it, and in the folder you will find a file with the name DELL-U2410.icm - his is your monitor color profile from Dell. However most likely Windows has already installed it for you.
Now, given your situation, you may have these eventual problems.
First problem.
Your monitor is a wide gamut monitor 102% of NTSC and Windows defaults at sRGB which is about 70% fo NTSC. NTSC is a color space representing the visible spectrum and is used in monitor specs for measuring the gamut.
Assuming that for some time you didn't use a color profile which more closely represents your monitor, Photoshop was displaying images on your wide gamut monitor using the default sRGB color profile which represent standard gamut sRGB monitors and this is very different from yours. Said in other words you were seeing one thing on your monitor while Photoshop was assuming it is another thing. This becomes a problem when you convert from one color space to another and display or reproduce the image on other devices, and in your case when monitor profile is changed to a very different one. To fix this you have to assign your correct monitor profile to the images that were created with the wrong profile and then convert to a common color space like sRGB, AdobeRGB, etc. Assign and Convert to profiles are in the Edit menu.
Second problem.
The color profile from Dell may not be representing correctly how your monitor displays colors. Dell creates a profile that is not measured to your particular unit but for what they assume is an average representation of the monitor's model. Using it, you depend entirely on luck. I have u2711 and I was very unlucky. If you are curious you can study my case which may be also very educational for you and will be able to see clearly the difference between the colors of my monitor and those the Dell color profile represents. Follow the same instructions above for downloading the color profile for your monitor but download the one for u2711 from here
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?releaseid=R247058&formatcnt=1&libi d=0&fileid=365277
then go to that web site from your link http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/icc_profiles.htm and download my color profile that I'm sharing there. It is 'Dell U2711 Spyder 3 + Color Eyes DP User' once you have the color profiles files on you computer, go to this site http://www.iccview.de/content/view/3/7/lang,en/ , upload my monitor profile and the one from Dell and compare. That web site will give a 3D plot of two color spaces in a 3D viewer that you can navigate to see it from all sides (using the Ctrl, Shift navigates faster). The difference that you see made it impossible to create even simple images for the web using Photoshop. I convert from AdobeRGB to sRGB and when Photshop assumes that my monitor displays colors the way they are described in the Dell's profile, all detail in the shadows is eliminated and my images look like crap. I even got better results from creating a profile using this free software http://www.calibrize.com/ it uses the so call eyeometer relying on your eyes for feedback and although the colors were noticeably off, at least the shadow detail was preserved.
Hope that helps

Colors locked in Photoshop Elements 6

Colors locked in Photoshop Elements 6
I created a 1 layer TIFF file in Photoshop Elements 6 with text only which was distorted then flattened. The result was grey text on a white background. The problem is I can't change the color of the gray text.
I select the Foreground color icon on the tool bar at the left side, then I get the color pallet window, but no matter what color I select the Foreground color icon can only be gray or white (if I chose a lighter color).
Somehow 24 bits worth of color choices are converted to 1 bit (gray or white), and there's no obvious controls to change this, no F1 help guides and no obvious knowledgebase or forum comments. Does the file format, which is unknown to me, govern Photoshop operations (?), which would of course make absolutely no sense even if it were true, because that should only be an output formatting decision.
Thanks for any comment or reference.

Creating color profiles Leica D-Lux 4

is problem?
Photoshop Extended
Operating System: Windows XP Professional

What version of Bridge/Photoshop are you running?
Is it X-Rite's Passport software or Adobe's DNG Profile Editor software that is giving the error? I ask this because you talk about using Passoprt to create profiles, but then describe the error has coming from the DNG Profile Editro which is Adobe's software.
What process are you following, starting with the RWL file, that gives the error about not having a valid DNG file?
I know X-rite released an update to their software a few months ago.
You might post one of your RWL files via YouSendIt.com to let others try and duplicate your scenario.

Hi
I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

Do the following:
Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
Calibrate the monitor

I created an image in Photoshop and saved it as the PSD file. Now when I try and open it it says it is not compatible with my version. How could this be when I created it in this version?

That depends on why it won't open. Most of the time it means the file is corrupted and unlikely to be recovered. If you saved it right after adding or copying a LOT of layers - then it might just be the layer limit and we can attempt to recover it.

Creating DVD menu in Photoshop?

Hi all,
I'm wondering if it's possible to create a menu using Photoshop and import it into DVD Studio Pro with all the layers intact along with all the buttons? I am used to using Adobe Encore which has this feature. All you need to do in Photoshop is name each layer a certain way and as soon as you import your .psd file into Encore it automatically converts each specified layer to a button, image, link, etc. Does DVD Studio Pro have this feature as well?
Thanks all!

Does not sound like it is the same (you cannot automatically create links etc.)
