CYMK TO RGB importing and color changing

I don't know if this is something really basic but I finished a piece of artwork. I copied an image that I drew in illustrator and pasted it into an empy photoshop document. I was working on CYMK in illustrator but RGB in photoshop. I thought that might have been why the colors were off. Like the blacks in CYMK are not fully black unlike RGB. So I made a new RGB document in illustrator pasted the image from the previous CMYK document and tried to convert the colors.(through swatch and even edit colors). This new image I posted again into photoshop again the colors were off. Last try I made another new RGB document. I painted another image this time using RGB black from the beginning and it was not a copied image from the previous document but rather a new image that I just drew. Still when I imported into Photoshop the black was not fully black. I zoomed in and notice it wasn't black even in the 2 illustrator documents in RGB. I don't know what I'm doing wrong and why the color isn't fully black would anyone be able to help direct me or teach me what is wrong here? Is it something I'm doing wrong in photoshop or in illustrator or both?

what is wrong here?
On the most elementary level: Your color management settings do not match and there is a profile conversion happening. Make sure to use the same color profiles (plain sRGB) in both apps, calibrate your monitor, use the correct monitor profile for proofing.... Other things that could be relevant:
- you are still mixing your colors in CMYK in AI, even when working in RGB, resulting in crooked values and possibly different gamut
- you settings for rich black are set in such a way, that all blacks are converted to rich black
- you are using AI transparencies and blending modes, which simply work differently in PS
- OpenGL usage in PS may affect display of your artwork
In any case, this is nothing a short forum post can answer. You really need to read up on color management and how it works in different programs to resolve these issues.

Calendar font and color change no reason

I am attempting to create a calendar with the new Iphoto and I have to say it is harder to use then the old one. I am trying to manually enter birthdays. Typed couple of entries with Hoefler Text size 8 and worked. All of a sudden tried typing in another date, same month, and Font changed color to orange and is larger but same Hoefler Text setting and size 8 still appear. What am I doing wrong? how do I fix?

There are a few animated titles with fonts that cannot be changed. Lens Flare is one of them.
Here's more information:

Pre-Made Effects and Color Change

When I add a pre-made effect to type. How do I change the effects color? The effect Im trying to use is the underwater one. It always stays this ugly blue tint, and I need the effect to be green. Ive tried changing it in the attributes window, but it only effects the text minus the underwater effect.

Actually David, I did mean the Style tab.
You see, either way, you have to select each keyframe and then make the color change to make this fix. But instead of going to the Effects tab and having to select the ShadColor parameter each time you select a different keyframe (and then selecting a new color and confirming), you can just leave the Shadow tab open on the Style menu, select the color swatch there and pick the color you want for each key. Doing it in the Style tab saves you a few clicks each time.
About the only time I use the Effects panel is when entering parameters that don't have an interface component (such as Accelerate) or to get a quick view of what parameters are being animated.

Calculated value and color change

I am a newbie desiging a form in Livecycle.
Have a table with some calculated fields - using formcalc.
I want to change the color of these fields based on the calculated value but I don't know how to have multiple events occurring in the one cell.
I can get it working if I put the color change script into the exit event of the cell but as it's a read only cell, the user will not be exiting the cell. I have had no luck putting the color change script elsewhere. Any help would be appreciated.

Actually, in full screen mode the top is cut off! I never noticed that since I always use full screen. This only happens in ACR. All other screens are fully represented. I may cut back on the height adjustment and see if I can see the top. Thanks for pointing it out, Ramon.
Back to the problem at hand, if you notice, all sliders are at -0-, and if you could look at all the adjustment panels, everything is neutral. So, what is it adjusting?
If I open a RAW file I also get the triangle, but when it disappears only the slightest change is noticeable in the histogram, and nothing in the image itself. This is true even with the .nefs tweaked.
Finally, the image 1 is correct with respect to the same file in PS. I compared the screen shot to the full image side by side, in PS. Image 2 is not. If I do a tweak in ACR then open in PS, it's not what I want to see.
This particular frame is tagged with the ACR icon in Bridge, but I have other tiffs that are not, and the same thing occurs.
FAPP, I cannot not color correct in ACR with a tiff. I do it as an .nef

Font and color changes not executed

In setting up a new blog page, I've selected a specific color for the titles of my entries, and a typeface. But on the blog page itself, once it was published to MobileMe, the title is gray and the font is not what I selected. Why is it not responding to the changes I've made, and saved? Thank you!

Yes, I have cleared the browser's cache and no change. I'm trying to think here...when I'm making these changes, I am doing it in the "entries" section, because in the "blog" section these changes are not available for me to make.
blog template has three entities: 1) blog summary 2) blog entries and 3) blog archive
changes that you made in 'entries' section won't reflect the blog summary/archive because they are rendered separately.
You can change 'titles'/head lines font face in blog summary/archive by slowly click on the title three times (all titles will be hilited) then you can change font face.
but, you can not change the color, because the titles are hyperlinks to link back to the entries. you can change their colors in theme/domain.site2's xml or you willing to post edit blog summary/archive CSS file.

Video clips not diplaying in viewer and color changes in canvas

I have been using Final Cut Pro 7 successfully on my computer for some time. Suddenly I am getting white preview and canvas screens. The video clips are not previewing (but audio is present) and the canvas show dark color outlines and extremely degraded image. I have uninstalled and reinstalled final cut pro but there is no change.

I trashed preferences which had no effect and then entirely uninstalled fcp using fcp remover which removes all related files and then reinstalled it and the problem remains.

Dynamic Text and color changes......

In some cheap website creating software I have you can turn
text into rich text and change the color of individual words inside
the same text box full of text. Is there anyway to do that in flash
CS3?

Thanks clbeech I actually found an easy way to do it. For
your dynamic text box you can click the "html" box in the
properties window for that text box. (Its a little square box with
this <> inside it and its just to the right of the singleline
and multiline box drop down.) You can then select the text you want
to edit inside the text box and change its font/size/color as well
as turn it into a dynamic link and it will do so without affecting
the rest of the text in your text box.

Flash crash and color changes

in CS3 I have jpegs and gifs along all with a background that
is the same color across photoshop and flash, and it looks fine in
the development environment, but when I make a swf file the colors
shift and it no longer looks correct.
I also get artifacts in the file when using a mask,
horizontal lines.
see:
http://circularcreation.com/clients/PeterGregoire/

try clicking File> Publish settings and raising the jpeg
compression quality to 100. Also, you're better off importing
.png's into flash instead of jpg's and gifs if possible, better
quality and compression then a jpg.

Font and Color Changes

I have created my website pages using color on my

Here's a list of fonts found on Windows PCs and Macs. If
you're not
using one of them then you can't guarantee it will be

5900 heard a load snap and colors changed

Playing the GTR demo at 1024x768 on Sunday I heard a loud snap like a twig breaking and the screen had a very red tint to it. I turned the monitor off and on again and still the same. Restarted the computer and still no change. Turned everything off and back on and things were normal again. The monitor has had a loud whine lately when starting up showing the windows splash screen, but is quiet when playing games or at the desktop.
The 5900 isn't very old and I have an Antec Smart 550w power supply. The CPU temp was 127*-f at the time. The monitor was bought in 1998. I am assuming it is the monitor, but would like to double check since it hasn't done it since and I don't have another to try.

were did the snap come from,pc or monitor

Font and Color Changes on Hyperlinks

I am going mad on iWeb trying to format hyperlinks. No matter how I format the text, the moment you enable it as a hyperlink it defaults to whatever Apple set it at. The inspector shows all the right parameters but the link is unchanged.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Unfortunately, the answer is there is no way within iWeb to change the hyperlink format. Perhaps Apple will add this feature in a future release.

Is it possible to import and export Config Toll Configuration from one sys

Hi All,
Is it possible to import and export Config Toll Configuration from one system to Another system (QUS/PRD), for especific service.
Kindly let me know the pro and corn of it and step by step process
Thanks alot for your time.
Thanks
AB

Yes...It is certainly possible but then you would need to bring OS level j2ee filestructure as well and there are lots of changes at OS level in *.properties file and then at configtool level changes related to hostname, system numbers and port numbers etc.
This is not much difficult but not impossible also if you do it very carefully. Please note that SAP DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS METHOD.
alternatively, you can use sapinst to export-import j2ee filesystem from source to target which inturn would require to do configtool export/import and then changes at configtool level.
Do let us know your requirement so that we cud help you in case you are facing any issues.
cheers !!!

AI File Import - Color Changes on Paste

We are having a universal problem when pasting elements from
Illustrator CS3 (Mac OS X) into Flash CS3. If we choose to import
Paths as Vector, the color is changed. For example FF9900 becomes
FF8A00. This is not a CMYK to RGB issue. It happens with all
circumstances. We have used the Bridge CS3 to sync colors to NA
Web, and have made new documents from the Web template and still
the color changes. The color change isn't always consistent. If the
color is defined as a Spot it changes differently (FF9900 becomes
FF9B00).
Our current workaround is to export as SWF from Illustrator,
which preserves the colors. Any ideas on what we're doing wrong, or
if this is a limitation/bug?

Compressor: DVCPROHD 720p60
When I prep for DVD I'll use 8-bit uncompressed, but I'm just trying to get a quick proof out for preview via FTP.
"Recompress all Frames" is not checked.
Interesting thing is the colors appear to be preserved when I bring it into Compressor - they are only off in Quicktime.
Doing a compression right now, so we'll see if they are preserved in the final clip for web...

Color Changes When Importing onto Another Computer

I'm not sure if this is an Illustrator issue, but since I'm using Illustrator, I'm hoping maybe someone can help.
I made a graphic in Illustrator that I exported. I then put that on a flash drive, took it to another computer, and imported it into software called Lectora (not Adobe related). However, my colors changed greatly. The orange wasn't too bad, but the purple is a huge difference. My company has specific colors, so it's a huge deal to make it the correct shade of purple.
I don't think it's the software because if you open the graphic on the computer in general, the colors are different. I tried on a third computer, and the colors are still different, so that brings me back to some setting on my original computer.When I open the graphic on my computer outside of Adobe, the colors are what I want.
The document is RGB, 72ppi. I tried exporting as png, tif, jpeg, bmp, gif (transferred to photoshop), 72ppi, 300ppi, etc.
Also if it matters, from my original computer to the printer, it prints the different shade of purple rather than what i see on my screen.

Carla,
There may be differences in the colours on the different (and possibly differently calibrated) monitors (and between different applications).
There is probably a significant difference in colours between RGB and CMYK; unless you are using a non PostScript printer (driver), the printer needs CMYK; you should create the CMYK colours by creating a version (the basic print version) in CMYK Color Mode.
Normally, if you want to make sure that you can print the colours in CMYK, you should start with CMYK.
Obviously, if the intended (main) use is for screen/web and the print is only secondary, you may work in RGB and live with the colour differences in print; or you may use a (non PostScript) printer with more inks.
Yet another option is to use spot colours, but that is a further complication.
Have you used colour management?
You may start reading the basics here (the articles also apply to Illy, though written for PS).

Fireworks CS3-Color changes when importing Photoshop images

Hello,
I created a background image in Photoshop CS3 but whenever I import it into Fireworks CS3 the color changed. It seems that the saturation level is changing. The hue is close however. I tried using the color palette to type in the exact RGB & Hexadecimal number but it is still not working.
Please help. Thank you
