Different color in Acrobat than everbody else.

One of users on Acrobat Pro 9 is experiencing a color issue.  Documents that everybody in the office see in the same color will be slightly different in his Acrobat.  When opened in publisher he sees the correct color, but most colors are in a different hue in his Acrobat.  I've checked the color settings and everything seems to match what everyone else is operating on.  Any suggestions?

Bump... Reinstalled Acrobat and still having color issues.  There is a clear difference between this the troubled user (left) and the rest of the office (right).  It's not just the monitor, printing gives the same results.

  • Background color in HTML widget is a totaly different color in IE than what

    Background color in HTML widget is a totaly different color in IE than what is shown in safari. http://web.mac.com/bmoody/Royalfest/5k.html .The scrolling text background is beige in safari and Firefox but blue in IE6. Any insite to what I can change or what the issue is other than microsoft would be greatly appreatiated

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Unfortunately this about says it all:
    The scrolling text background is beige in safari and Firefox but blue in IE6.
    You could try an image file of the color you want to have and see if it will be rendered any truer by IE. Be sure the file contains the sRGB color profile that most web sites use and it should render the same on all browsers except for possibly the brightness.

  • Just installed mountain Lion. Viewing a pdf sent to me using preview and some colors are appearing BLACK, however when I view the same PDF in Acrobat they are perfect and what they are suppose to be. WHY would PREVIEW showing a different color?

    Just installed mountain Lion. Viewing a pdf sent to me using preview and some colors are appearing BLACK, however when I view the same PDF in Acrobat they are perfect and what they are suppose to be. WHY would PREVIEW showing a different color?

    Here's what I've found on the issue:
    Pantone color definitions have changed (coinciding with CS6) — they are now "Pantone+" (I think that's what they're called). The "+" apparently means they're now LAB colors. Lab colors are not properly displayed in Preview (or in Finder previews) — they display as black (as far as I can tell, in all circumstances). I'm sure it's a tad more complicated than that, but that's the gist.
    Now the bad news — nobody seems to know anything about a fix or workaround (unless you convert your PDFs to process — this might be a fix for sending to clients). It causes issues for me in AI files — being able to view them in the finder (with previews) is a HUGE time saver for my workflow... when they're all black, not so much.
    In my chat with a director of product dev at Adobe, they placed the responsibility to fix on Apple (assuming Apple wants to support Pantone color definitions in their OS).

  • I need help with color pallette in iPhoto 11. I have created a book and would like to use a different color background than those given in "background." I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
    Additionally I have no idea what you are saying here
    I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.
    And it always helps for you to dientify the version of iPhoto that you are using

  • Is there a way to change the color of the Bezier Curves and points to a different color other than black  I find it perplexing while setting points and curves working on a photo that needs to be separated from it's background for placement on transparent

    Is there a way to change the color of the Bezier Curves and points to a different color other than black  I find it perplexing while setting points and curves working on a photo that needs to be separated from it's background for placement on transparent backgrounds. Any thoughts?

    Yes. Well, sort of: instead of a "path", set the pen tool to "shape" in the tool properties. Then set the fill colour to transparent, and the stroke colour to the colour you want. You can also set the stroke width.
    Not perfect, but at least you can see the path more clearly - the anchor points and handles still remain the default colour. Open the path panel, and right-mouse click the path shape to create a selection based on that shape. The Paths panel menu also allows you to create work paths based on that shape.
    Unfortunately when you try to move the handles the black thin outline appears again until you release the mouse button.
    This is one of several things that works better in Photoline: in Photoline, once the path is set to a specific colour, editing the path uses the actual colour and stroke width. which is extremely handy for creating path based selection with awkward background colours and/or a high resolution screen. In Photoline the handles and bezier points are also much, much larger, which makes it rather simpler to work with as well - especially on a higher resolution screen. And when selected the handles and points are a clear red with a black outline - again easier to spot and identify. I just works better, in my opinion.

  • How can I make a link a different color than the other links according to the current page?

    Hello.  I have created a navigation bar.  And I would like to style the links to have the current page link a different color than the other links.  For example, if all of the links have a black background, I would like to have the current page link to have a white background.  The reason that I would like to style them this way is so that the visitor knows what page is being visitied.
    I tried different ways but all of them did not show to make any change to the links.  This is what I have so far.  The links work, but all of them have the same color and background.  When on the home page, I would like to have the home page link to have a white background with black letters.  I would appreciate your advice.

  • Colors in acrobat different from photoshop/indesign

    In Photoshop I use a 'Europe Prepress 3' color setting for my images. In Indesign I use the same color settings. 'Europe Prepress 3' for RGB and Coated FOGRA 39 (ISO 12647-2:2004). The image looks the same in Photoshop as it does when placed in an Indesign document. Then I create the pdf through Indesign. When I open the pdf document in Acrobat the image looks more red than in Photoshop/Indesign. In Acrobat I've also got the exact same color settings in its preferences. Why does the girl's face on the photo look much more red in the pdf file while in Acrobat than when opened in Photoshop or viewed while placed in an Indesign document? When I open the pdf in Photoshop it looks ok again. I've got the exact same color management settings in Acrobat, Photoshop and Indesign. So what's wrong with  Acrobat?

    Ok, I thought using the same color management settings as in Photoshop/Indesign should make it look the same. Is there any point at changing that in Acrobat then?

  • How to underline with a different color than red (in Preview, with Mountain Lion)

    Hi,
    I'm using Preview to study and I would like to figure out how to underline with a different color please...
    Also, Is there a better app to read PDF document and highlight/annote/underline... to study...
    Thanks!

    In Adobe Acrobat Reader, you can control the color of the underline and the highlight from the Annotations panel. You would bring this into view from the View > Comment > Annotations menu hierarchy. The underline tool by default, has a green underline. You can change the color (and opacity) by right-clicking the green underlined ‘T’  and choose “Tool Default Properties.”
    This may have answered your second question if you find it easier to perform your markup with it.

  • I want my 3d Extrude to be a different color than the font face

    How do I do this?  I don't want a shade of the current color.  I need a totally different color.

    Quick Way: Stroke your type the colro of your extrusion.
    Alterantive: I often do not like to use stroke cause you can get strange anomilys with 3D Extrude, so you can dup a copy on top with no extrusion and tchaneg the color

  • Different Colors when printing from Photoshop and InDesign CS3

    Different Colors when printing from Photoshop and InDesign CS3
    I have the following problem:
    When printing from Photoshop or InDesign to a PostScript printer, Adobe recommends to let Photoshop handle the colors (I use the German version, so I don't know the exact term used, it changes slightly in all CS3 apps anyway).
    The manufacturer however told me to let the PostScript printer handle the colors.
    When I chose this option in Ps's print dialog and then choose ISO Coated as the printer pfofile, the results are fine.
    But when I place the exact same image in an InDesign file and print from InDesign or export to PDF and print via Acrobat, again using "Printer handles colors", the results are the exact same as if I had used Ps and chosen to let Ps handle the colors (way too saturated and a bit too red).
    ·Photoshop CS3
    ·InDesign CS3
    ·Test image is a TIFF in CMYK Fogra 27 Coated (which is also the working color space in Ps and ID.
    ·Printer: Xerox Docucolor 3535
    ·Printer profile: ISO Coated
    How can I make sure the printer handles the colors in other CS3 apps than Ps? I tried it with ID's print dialog (translated from the German version: Color Management > Options > Color Handling: PostScript-printer decides colors).
    Thanks a lot!

    RE: "You don't indicate what Xerox printers you have"
    In my first post I named it, is that the information you need?
    Docucolor 3535 using Splash 3535
    That's interesting, so I have to find a way to turn off the printer's Color Management function? I mailed them, hope they can tell me how to do it easily. They usually just tell me to not use any profiles and so on, but that's the general rule in this area, I'm really tired of hearing it. Everybody seems to think profiles and LAB mode are nuclear science and I should stay away from it.
    Anyway, the test image I'm using is a simple photograph (size A3, 300dpi), so no transparencies at all. I'm placing this image into an equally large ID file and print it from ID, then export it to PDF-X/3 and print it from Acrobat. Hope that helps.

  • Different color in different adobe applications!

    I noted a difference in color between Lightroom and Photoshop CS4.
    If I export the PSD file from Lightroom as .jpg with Adobe RGB profile and then open it in PS I get a different color than if I open the PSD file with same profile!
    Very strange indead.
    My system is calibrated, monitor and printer, and I get excellent results. I use Adobe RGB throughout. Color is set in Bridge Creative suite color setting. All proof colors are unchecked. The problem is that the files appear different and print different if different applications.
    It seams that Lightroom, Preview, Acrobat and Indesign, (even the small thumbnail in Finder) all share same color. (With minor noticeable difference).
    However Photoshop looks very different. More saturated.
    Can someone explain please?
    Screenshot with multiple open programs.

    I don't use Lightroom, but on the Photoshop display side
    You need to determine how your apps deal with tagged and untagged images, especially what Default profile they apply-assume-assign when the profile is absent, stripped and/or ignored.
    If a thumbnail in OSX Finder shows the problem, that is a big clue because Finder thumbnails are not color managed (Finder is assuming Monitor RGB).
    I recommend going here
    www.gballard.net/photoshop/pdi_download/
    and downloading the iPhotoTESTfolder.zip
    That series contains tagged and untagged verisions of AppleRGB, AdobeRGB, sRGB, ProPhotoRGB.
    First, look at the image icons in finder (they are all over the place).
    Next, drag the download folder into Bridge and observe the thumbnail colors (Bridge assumes sRGB on untagged images)...
    +++++++
    If your problem apps are displaying color the same as image icons in Finder, then either your app is not colormanaged or the file does not contain an embedded profile.
    +++++++
    PS:
    OSX Safari is a great app for testing JPEG files because it will either read an embedded profile or it will apply the default monitor profile (exactly where I am pointing you to) -- just drag your icon into an open Safari window...

  • Flattening annotations (comments) changes highlight color in Acrobat, but not Reader

    I have a pdf document with multiple comments consisting of sentences highlighted with different colors. The colors are the default, bright colors in the default commenting "Highlighter Tool Properties" palette. When I flatten with either Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 or X (Tools - Print Production - Preflight - flatten annotations and form fields) the colors of the highlights change from the normal 'bright' colors to dull 'pantone'-like colors. Interestingly, if I view the flattened file with Reader, the colors are fine (back to the bright colors), but when viewing with Acrobat Pro they are the dull pantone colors. It is as if there is a 'flag' in the file telling Acrobat (but not Reader) to change the displayed highlight colors.
    I'm using Mac OS X 10.9.5
    Does anyone know how I might change this so that the highlight colors do not change when flattening?
    Thanks

    Well, I was able to answer my own question. You have to go into "Flattener Preview" and change "Color Space" from the default "none" to something else, in my case, "Device RGB". Also, make sure to set page range.

  • Desaturated colors in Acrobat XI vs OK Colors in Acrobat 9

    When I create a PDF in Indesign CC and view it in Acrobat 9 the colors look exactly like in the Indesign document. When I open the PDF in Acrobat XI (11.0.04)  they look desaturated and dull. How is it going to look if I send it to the printer, like in 9 (then I won't worry and simply use that version) or like in XI (then please tell me how I can get my colors right in the PDF). I am using an Eizo Wide Gamut screen (CG241W) on a Mac with the latest version of OS Mavericks.

    I've just discovered the same issue on my computer (MacMini 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7, MacOs 10.9.5, Eizo display via HDMI, and freshly updated Acrobat XI from Creative Cloud). Colors in Acrobat look different than in InDesign and Photoshop, though I checked carefully the right profile in "Output preview".
    I usually use Acrobat for preflighting prepress files, and the accurate color wasn't crucial so far, but recently it turned out that calibration software from Eizo uses Acrobat's "Output preview" for validating of the calibrating. The other option would be using Photoshop (it worked fine with Photoshop CS2 on my former PowerPC machine) but for an obscure reason it crashes every time Eizo's ColorNavigator tries to switch to Photoshop CC. The validation process goes smoothly with Acrobat, but since it displays wrong colors the validation result is distorted.
    All in all there are two issues: inaccurate colors displayed in Acrobat and some incompatibility between Photoshop CC and ColorNavigator (of course, I intend to write to Eizo too). Fixing at least one of them would make me more than happy.

  • IPhoto - is it using two different color spaces?

    I know I should have a better handle on this whole question by now, but am still confused by the 1.8 vs. 2.2 Gamma issue.
    On the recent advice of an Apple PhotoServices tech, I've just changed my main display's Gamma from the default 1.8 to the darker 2.2 -- hoping to maximize consistency between what I see onscreen and what I'll receive in my printed Calendar order. (Everything else is still based on the default "Cinema HD" profile.)
    Using one particular JPEG image as a test, I'm seeing something curious:
    In Aperture, the image's thumb and its full-screen version look basically the same. But in iPhoto, that same image looks quite different depending on whether I'm viewing it as a thumb (or as an image placed in a Calendar theme), vs. when I double-click that image and see it in iPhoto's Editor window.
    When I see it in iPhoto's editing mode, it suddenly looks noticeably lighter -- as if I'd switched my display back to the old 1.8 Gamma.
    Can anyone enlighten me here (pardon the pun)? Why does iPhoto's editor window seem to display an image differently than other programs, or even than elsewhere in iPhoto itself? And why am I only seeing this discrepancy after setting my display to the 2.2 Gamma?

    Okay --
    The plot thickens. I followed your suggestion, Terence, and did some tests. Here are the interesting (if confusing) results:
    When I open anything from within the iPhotoLibrary folder using Preview, Preview gives the Color Profile info as follows:
    Color Model: RGB
    ColorSync Profile: Generic RGB Profile
    This seems to apply to anything from within the iPhotoLibrary package, whether we’re talking images from the Originals folder, from the Modified folder, or thumbs from the Data folder. And they all (when viewed in Preview) look the same, and they all look “correct” in terms of general contrast.
    BUT...
    When I do a Finder “Get Info” on those same files, suddenly there are differences.
    1) from the Modified folder:
    Most images from the Modified folder now say (in Get Info’s “More Info” pane):
    Color space: RGB
    Profile name: Adobe RGB (1998)*
    * (A few give the Profile name as “sRGB IEC61966-2.1”, and the one that got saved as a .psd file says “Camera Sync Profile”. The strange thing is I can’t seem to find any pattern between the images which were modified using my “external editor” -- Photoshop Elements -- vs. the ones which were edited using only iPhoto’s adjustment tools. The bulk of them all say “Adobe RGB (1998)” as the Profile Name.)
    Note that these are the same images which, when opened in Preview, ALL claim the “Generic RGB Profile” -- and all look correct under those circumstances.
    2) from the Data folder:
    Meantime, ALL the thumbnail images which iPhoto has created for its Data folder, when “Get Info’d” in the Finder, all state their Profile name as “sRGB IEC61966-2.1”.
    Open the same thumb image in Preview, and it’s back to “Generic RGB Profile” (as well as back to looking correct and not too dark).
    3) from the Originals folder:
    Finally, images from iPhoto’s Originals folder give no color profile data whatsoever in the “More info” pane of the Finder’s Get Info window. So is this the same as having the “Generic RGB Profile”?
    In any case, here are three different folders (Originals, Modified, and Data), and iPhoto appears to be using a different color profile for the images contained in each one -- and in the case of the Modified folder, several different profiles.
    Yet all of these images, when opened in Preview, appear to use the “Generic RGB Profile” -- and all appear as they should in terms of Gamma/contrast on screen -- while when viewed within iPhoto the same image will look quite different depending on whether it’s being seen in iPhoto’s regular window (as a thumb or as part of a Calendar layout, for instance -- all too dark) or in iPhoto’s editing window, in which case it suddenly looks fine.
    The other mystery is why this discrepancy between iPhoto’s regular viewer and its editing window wasn’t apparent when my display was set to the default 1.8 Gamma; it’s only become an issue under the new (AppleSupport-recommended) 2.2 setting.
    = = = = = == = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
    My brain officially hurts now. (I guess this is just more evidence that Computers and the Internet will all be very nice if they can finally just get them working.)
    Any help in interpreting this data will, as always, be much appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Can not color label more than one file at a time

    Hi,
    I've had this problem since 10.6.6-ish, i can not color label more than one file at a time in the Finder.
    Wether i select two, twenty or twohundred only one file gets color labeled.
    It doesn't seem to matter if i assign a color label through the File menu or right click > label.
    Figured a re-install might fix this but it hasn't (even a clean install without restoring any kind of backup).
    Does anyone else have this issue and/or a fix for it?
    Thanks,
    Jay
