Global colour changes
Hi,
I saw a tip for changing text attributes across multiple Text layers by linking them, then holding shift on any one of the linked layers to apply the attributes (colour, font, size) to all.
However this doesn't work for me in CS6, and was wondering if it's outdated? It would be a great way of making quick changes without having to search every layer and making sure each one is selected.
Many thanks
With Photoshop CC, try this:
Link your layers.
Then when you want to change all the color at the same time, right-click one of the linked layers and choose Select Linked Layers.
Voila, now they're all selected together and you can change the color.

Problem with tints of global colours
Having a really odd problem, whereby I can't specify a particular percentage tint of a global colour. For example, I have an ordinary square shape with no stroke and it's filled with a colour that I have specified as global. I try to change the tint of the fill colour to 50% and it immediately reverts back to 100%. If I change it to 51% or 49% or any other percentage for that matter, it works. I've noticed this from time to time in other situations with different percentages. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
I'm using Illustrator CS6 v 16.0.4, and Mac OS 10.9.2.
Thanks in advance.
JKThanks for your response. I'll try the work-around that you suggested. Also, I've just found that if I use the slider to select my tint percentage instead of typing it in, it works!
For me the issue seems to be tied to the object rather than the session. I've come to work on the same document again this morning after posting my question yesterday afternoon, and I'm still having the problem. Even if I copy the offending object to a new doc, the issue recurrs.
Not a huge problem given that I can work around it, but just annoying.
Thanks again. -
iPad IOS 7.0.2 and Mountain Lion 10.8.5 Calendar colors do not match between computer and device. Problem did not exist until updated IOS arrived. Colours change of their own free will despite being corrected on both iPAD and MacBook Pro. Any answers?

Is there a way to do a global font change in iWeb '09?
Hi,
I inherited a web site, created in iWeb '09. I've got the site files on my Mac ... when I start iWeb,
and select a page to edit, it complains:
The following errors occurred while trying to open this page:
Missing Font TrajanPro-Regular
Missing Font TrajanPro-Bold
Missing Font HelveticaNeue-Roman
Many (most or all) pages in the web site need these three fonts.
Thru googling, I know that those three fonts are proprietary fonts that I could purchase.
However, it seems silly to buy and install a font when the web server and end-user's
browser won't have it (and will therefore get substituted at their end).
Therefore, I think that my best choice is to change all uses of those fonts in the web site to
be uses of some "standard web fonts".
So, how do I do a global font change or substitution in iWeb '09? It seems like an awfully
obvious thing to want to do. (Finding each instance of use and manually selecting the text
and doing a font change is simply not feasible.)
(E.g.: Change "HelveticeNeue-Roman" to "Helvetica Regular")
thanks,
Stan

There is no way to do what you want. Send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback.iweb.html.

On Mac. Colours changed after switching to 64bit mode (ver 2.7)
Been using Lightroom 2.7 on my iMac quite happily and after reading a few articles realised it wasn't running in 64bit so changed it.
Now colours are all out, most noticeable on reds:
Before change
After Change
Any ideas why this is happening?
Tried changing back to 32bit and still the same so something has changed.
Thanks
Andrew
P.S Posted this on another forum and just to clarify here also, whilst the above are exported jpegs, these are used purely for illustration. The colour change is happening within lightroom itself, not on export.After some advice elsewhere it seems I have 'lost' some of the camera calibration profiles.
I only have ACR3.1 and ACR4.4 listed and checked on another machine I used I normally have it set to Adobe Standard.
So, how can I get the profiles back?
OK. Problem solved. Reinstalled Lightroom.

Is it possible to do a GLOBAL color change for both text and graphics in ACrobat XI?
I used to do this using the Pitstop Pro plugin but now Pitstop is almost $900 and this is the only thing that I would use it for, not worth the investment
I can change text color by selecting individual text items, but I want to change all of the red text into white text
I also need to change all of the red graphics into white graphics and I can't figure out how to do that either
I have a trial version of XI on a Mac and will buy it if it can do what I am trying to do, i.e. global color changes to both text and graphics
thanks!!I have version 6, but it is way out of date, doesn't work on my current system, I downloaded a trial version of the new one, version 12 I think, now I have to decide if I can afford to buy it, it is not cheap!
oops, sorry, I didn't read your entire message, aargh!
I'll check with them if I can upgrade from this early version, thanks for the suggestion!

having performed a search and visited a paticular web page produced by that search, the colour of the link changes and if found again in another search you know it has already been visited.
In many cases the change is from one shade of blue to another very similar shade of blue and it is very difficult to distinguish between them. An example would be at http://www.archive.org/advancedsearch.php?q=(parish%20registers).
Can this colour change be edited to something much more easily recognised?I had the same issue and resolved it
I first remove the prefs folder and the plist files for illustrator in ~/Libary
next I logged off,
then I uninstalled illustrator using the adobe uninstaller(http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html)
Next I reinstall illstrator
after that it worked for me. -
Colour change in identically exported PDFs: InDesign CS5 to CS6
Artwork turns out with a greener hue in a PDF Print document exported using InDesign CS6 trial software that has ruined a whole print run.
This catalogue has been printed in past years using CS4 and CS5 software, each time the colours in the exported PDF proof, PDF Print file and InDesign files being accurate and matching perfectly.
This time I used a trial of InDesign CS6 - Importing the same mother file as previous years and working on the document. When exporting the document however, despite using identical settings to export PDF files in the past, the exported PDFs turn out with a greener hue than the previous CS5 PDFs. I trialed a few different kinds of colour conversions in the PDF export window (i.e. 'no conversion' to 'convert to destination - RGB') just to see what happened - and all turned out with the same result. The colour change is small but this was exxaggerated at print and as a result the colours
looked drastically different from the catalogue the year before. Printing aside, (as it's a whole other ballgame), it came down to this slight PDF colour change.
I'm wondering if anyone can help explain this - does CS6 handle colour exporting differently to CS5?Hi Eugene,
Looking up the settings, they say the following:
InDesign CS5: Unsynchronised "settings are not synchronised for consistent colour" (odd; CS5 version is where the file exported with accurate colours)
InDesign CS6: Synchronised "using the same colour settings for consistent colour management" (CS6 version exported with a colour change)
Another thing I've realised that might be an issue:
The product images are still in RGB format (supplied by the photographer), where everything else in the artwork is in CMYK format. I've run a test export where I've converted everything to CMYK and exported it to a PDF.
The results:
InDesign CS5: Same colours consistently on both PDFs with RGB images and with all CMYK images.
InDesign CS6: Green hue across PDF with RGB images in it, Correct colours in PDF with all CMYK images.
So is this where the problem lies? The CS6 software having Synchronised colour settings shows a colour change when RGB photos are exported to PDF?
Let me know your thoughts... -
Why do colours change when converting from Word to PDF
I am converting word files to pdf, however the header and footer background colours change once converted. How can I stop this happening?
Depends on how you are creating the PDF. If you are using PDF Maker (the create PDF button), then check the preferences in that menu. There is an entry for the settings file selected. If you are printing to the Adobe PDF printer, the settings file is listed under the settings tab of the properties menu.

How can I animate colour changes of clips and mattes in fcpx
Can Anyone help me in getting to grips with ficpx.
I want to vary (animate) the colour of titles and mattes over their time periods. Also, i need to correct the variations of colour temperature (castes) which my panasonic camcorder produces sometimes. I notice that there is no animation icon in the inspector panel for colour changes and I am not able to insert animation points on the timeline animation strips above the assets. Any help would be appreciated. Lorenzo F.Color correction and color masks cannot be animated in FCP. You'd have to do this in Motion or some other app. DaVinci Resolve Lite is free.

Why the Colour changes in AI ???
My friend had a PDF file created in AI. She gave me the PDF file only. I open the file with AI in order to do minor editing but when I copy this file and paste into a new AI document, the colour changes (it becomes darker) even both documents are in CMYK mode. (I am using Adobe Illustrator CC)
The same file my friend gave me, I did the same with Adobe Illustrator CS5, there is no problem.
Can anyone help? Thank you so much in advance.I understand that for an export operation, but still puzzled why the histograms are almost identical in LR for images that had been brought into PS from the same RAW file and converted to different spaces (with slight differences undoubtedly due to the different gamuts). In that case, LR must be "honoring" the different color spaces, with the same appearance and histograms... But when I soft-proof the same RAW file I get very different histograms -- the sRGB more stretched out than the ProPhoto one. Those soft-proof histograms are "the same" (realizing they are all quick calculations) as when I do the corresponding convert to profile in PS.
Maybe I'm not getting my head around "the histogram of the proof target." That would be the more "dramatic" (changed) histogram I'm seeing in LR's soft proof and PS's convert to profile. But is there a reason to show it that way? Doesn't a histogram need to be interpreted in a color space to be meaningful?
If I go ahead with something like a Save for Web or Export from LR in that target color space, I'll then see the histogram return to more or less what it was before (given that rendering intent has done its thing).
Is it that the more dramatic histogram is simply representing the image in the wrong color space?? I can see that as a pragmatic decision. -
Some colours change from Photoshop to Illustrator in Swatches saved in Exchange format
When I save a colour swatch in Photoshop Extended CS3 in the .ase format and load it into Illustrator CS3, some of the colours change completely - e.g. a bright orange #ffbb29 (in Ps) appears as a pale grey blue #B2BACE (in Ai). The problem seems to be with the use of upper or lower case - if the orange is question is saved as #FFBB29, it appears correctly in Illustrator (although bizarrely this seems to only affect some colours that feature (hex) letters).
Is there a way of getting Photoshop to automatically give the values in upper case? I know I could just retype them all, but it would take ages (I use Swatches all the time) and it kind of defeats the whole Exchange idea. Or is there another way round the problem? My colour settings are synched (via Bridge) across CS3 Design Premium. Thanks in advance.

Apple Mail font and colour changes while typing!
I'm having an issue whereby the font and colour changes back to the default while I'm typing an email!
I have several signatures. When I select a signature and start typing, at apparently random moments, the font reverts to the default!
This will happen when I'm typing a line and, when it changes, if I cmd-z to undo my typing character by character - at some random point it suddenly reverts back to the signature font and colour.
Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a cause and/or solution?
Thanks,

Colour changes when importing Illustrator graphics into Flash CS3
Hi there!
I'm creating a Flash site, and all the graphics are imported
from Illustrator.
Also, in the Illustrator file, there are some Phtoshop
graphics with shadow effects on it.
The problem is, that when I import the .ai into Flash, a
pretty strong colour change occurs: everything becomes lighter. And
the shadow, wich is black in Photoshop, turns white in Flash!
Is there a way to solve this problem? I searched the net, and
some people say it's an OSX thing, wich is pretty strange, because
Mac is an obvious choice for loads of designers.
I've attached an image preview.
Preview
Thanks in advance!
AlexThanks for the anwsers!
However, the weird thing is, when I pick one of the photoshop
graphics, asign the profile to it, and import it into Flash, the
colors look fairly good. BUT when I import the complete Illustrator
file with alle the graphics in it, I still get the color shift. I
can now put all the graphics in the flash file, one at a time, but
I think thats not the most easy way to do it.. -
I have a layered .psd file with a cream background ( FFFDEB ) but after I save to web the cream colour has slightly changed ( FFFDEC ). The difference can be seen on web pages with FFFDEB background. I have previously created images which have saved correctly, so it can be done.
.psd file is 8bit, RGB image. Cinema HD display was set to Cinema HD profile....I have changed this to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 but it appears to have made no difference. PhotoShop color settings at Europe General Purpose 2 but I have tried North America General Purpose 2.
Please can you help?The problem is PhotoShop and not web problem
I am just trying to help you understand what may be going on there -- Photoshop is a colormanaged app that Converts to Monitor RGB. Unmanaged apps on a Mac, including Dreamweaver, (for practical explanation) assume/apply/assign Monitor RGB which may explain the difference you are seeing.
layered PhotoShop file with a cream background. When I save it as a
jpeg the cream colour changes it's value from FFFDEB to FFFDEC. It's
close but the difference can be seen when I import it onto a
Dreamweaver page with FFFDEB background colour.
I am pretty sure Dreamweaver doesn't honor profiles and convert to Monitor RGB so Dreamweaver is more likely assuming/assigning/applying Monitor RGB to your graphic and page background colors when it displays them on a Mac monitor (exactly as an unmanaged Mac web browser).
This would be very easy to validate in Photoshop:
1) Open your original .psd in Photoshop, flatten it, Convert to 8-bit sRGB
2) Check the RGB values, then
3) View> Proof SetUp> Monitor RGB should duplicate what Dreamweaver is showing.
Bottom line is get your profiles in order and learn how the Mac OS and Photoshop deal with tagged and untagged color.
Good luck.
