Hex colour shift from Indd to PH, both assigned sRGB

Hi everyone. I am doing some wire framing in indesign with buttons and other colours. I would like to keep everything pretty tight so when I use anything graphics from indesign and place them in photoshop I want the hex values to match. I have assigned both programs with sRGB IEC61966-2.1. But when I copy and paste into Photoshop the value changes slightly.
I have 2 colour with Hex values of:
#59B124 - Green 89/177/36
#FFD911 - Red 255/217/17
Made using the great script by in-tools. But when placed in ph the colour shift ever so slightly. Green becomes #58b023 and the Red becomes #fc1713. Is there any way to make sure when these copy over the colours match.
Thanks

by not including a profile and not colour managing either apps
Not including a profile doesn't mean there's no CM. If there's no document profile assignment, the Color Settings' Working Space is used instead. So without document profiles, and an RGB Working space of sRGB in both programs, the preview of 89/177/36 would be the same. It looks like when document profiles are used there's some kind of conversion when you cut and paste, which shouldn't happen.
You could leave your docs with no profile assigned and then when you save for web include the working sRGB profile

Colour shift from Snow Leopard to Lion

I initially noticed this problem within Lion and Lightroom 4 when printing to my Epson 4800. The colour shifts to a more pinkish hue in prints done in Lion. I'd originally thought this was unique to Lightroom, but the same thing happens to the same file when printed in Preview, so I'm assuming it ithe rhas something to do with Lion or the Epson printer. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this experience and if they have any suggestions. I've read other threads on this here, and I can confirm it's not a monitor calibration issue, and that my printer driver for the 4800 is the one for Lion, and that everything in Lightroom and the driver is configured identically in both versions of the OS.
I'm stuck, and figure the expertise for this is in this forum, so I'm sorry that it seems to be slightly outside of being an Adobe specific issue, but would appreciate any suggestions. I'm able to replicate the problem consistently by bouncing back and forth between the two operating systems. I'm going to try going back to a previous driver version to see if that makes a difference.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Chris

Problem solved. The previous driver for the printer - the 10.6.8 one, did the trick, so I'm going to assume this is an Epson issue. I have a 9880 here as well and it will be interesting to see if the issue recurs there. Of course, if I've missed anything here, please let me know, but I think this addresses the issue, and hope it helps anyone else who may have it as well.
Cheers, and phew.

Dng colour shift from bridge to jpg's....cs2

Hello everyone. I am very new at this so I really hope that someone can help me.
I have a new eos 5 mark 11.
I use cs2 which doesn't recognise the RAW images. I have downloaded dng and started colour correction in bridge.
I have saved the files as jpg's but........ there is a huge colour shift. They look terrible.
What am I doing wrong?? please help.

I'm trying to figure out the same thing. As far i discovered that Photoshop as default display images without any proofing. Fax viewer in windows is color managed (at least in theory). That's why adobe created sRGB (for viewing on screen).
Try to turn on proof colors (ctrl + y) and set it to monitor RGB. This will show you your terrible jpg's in PS.
Saved jpg's in PS looks brighter, but less vivid.
RAW (converted or not) files saved as jpg's look far worse (terrible, as you said) in windows fax viewer, but I don't know why. Try to compare it, shooting RAW + jpg. Jpg's looks ok (better in bridge), RAWs looks ok in PS, but after saveing them as jpgs... (without proofing) they are so bad! RAW are great, but sometimes it's pointless to shoot in RAWs, becaouse you will have a lot of work to develop good settings. This drives me crazy , when jpg from camera looks better than RAW file (no correction).
You can show bad jpgs as good jpgs in web using photoshop express gallery (I gues it uses same engine as PS and Bridge)

Appointments one hour ahead of appointments created in iCloud - both before *and* after the shift from daylight savings time

I am in the CET timezone and my Lumia 925 on 8.1 has consistently shown appointments one hour ahead of appointments created in iCloud - both before and after the shift from daylight savings time here.
My disappointment is compounded by the fact that I patiently waited for October, naïvely thinking the clockchange would solve things... doh.
Look forward to your earliest solution.
Jonny.

There is a separate thread on this subject. It's a bug in Windows Phone 8.1. It is fixed in the upcoming Windows 8.1 Update 1 release (due Nov/Dec 2014). Alternatively, you can install the developer preview (go to Store and search for 'preview for developers'.
You have to register as a developer though (easily done through appstudio.windows.com) or you can wait for your phone vendor (Microsoft / Nokia) to release the 'Denim' upgrade.
For now, I don't know a decent workaround.

How do I configure my iPhone to show different colours for my two calendars both from separate email accounts, both Exchange.

How do I configure my iPhone to show different colours for my two calendars both from separate email accounts, both Exchange.

Photoshop to Lightroom Colour Shift

Hi all,
I've recently upgraded from CS5 to CC after purchasing a Nikon D7100 over christmas and thus needing the latest versions fro RAW support (Nikon NEF).
My problem is I am experiencing colour shift between Photoshop and Lightroom after upgrading. I have set Lightroom to use 16-bit ProPhoto RGB images when editing in Photoshop. My computer is a Late 2012 MacMini with an Apple Thunderbolt Display.
I originally posted this in the Photoshop forum and have moved it over here after being recommended to do so.
The image below shows the problem, where the colour is correct in Photoshop, but not in Lightroom.
In the other thread we went through the motions and eliminated:
D7100 Camera Raw Profile
Lens profile
Screen calibration and profile
It seems most likely at this point that Lightroom is applying some kind of alterations to the image settings. If I Right Click a problem image in lightroom and say "edit in photoshop with lightroom adjustments" that colours appear incorrect in photoshop, too.
Can anyone make any suggestions here? I can't seem to get anything I shot last weekend out of lightroom with the correct colours!
Thanks,
Dan.

A “raw” HDR image has darks that are too dark to see detail in and lights that are too bright to see any detail in. The process of “tone mapping” is what scrunches all the floating point values into the normal range of black to white. Once an image is tone mapped its pixel values all fall into the range of zero to whatever the maximum value is for white in a 16-bit or 8-bit format and it can be saved as such. The 32-bit floating point image is supposed to be temporary on the way to an 8- or 16-bit image. Personally I save the original 32-bit image in a separate file from the tone-mapped 16- or 8-bit image so I can always go back and revisit the tone mapping operation.
LR supports 32-bit images otherwise you would see nothing. Here is a discussion about why things look different that includes Eric Chan, an Adobe Raw Engineer, to someone bringing up a similar concern a little over a year ago:
ttp://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_preview_of_hdr_tonemapped_i mage_doesnt_match_what_is_shown_in_photoshop_acr
It used to be that Photoshop was the only Adobe product that could open 32-bit files and tone-map them to 16- or 8-bits and I would argue that it did an unsatisfying job. Eventually this capability was added to LR and the ACR plug-in for Photoshop which does a better job, but being raw converters, the starting point looks brighter on screen.
Photomatix is a payfor product that also does a good job with both merging and tone-mapping to 16- or 8-bits. It comes with both a standalone and a plug-in interface. There are others, but Photomatix is the one I’ve tried in the past.

Colour shift when using 4.2 Edit In to adjust a NEF file in CS6

If I choose Edit In and CS6 the resulting image in CS6 shows a marked colour green/yellow colour shift.
The LR4 external editor is configured to edit using ProPhoto RGB with 16 bit TIFF.
However, if I use the Export option with the same settings and then open the image in Photoshop it is fine.
Equally, if I first convert the NEF image to a DNG and then use Edit In with the same settings it also appears fine in Photoshop. This would appear to rule out any issues with monitor profiles (monitor profiled with i1).
Therefore this appears to be an issue with NEF files (Nikon D3) using the Edit In facility.
Also for some obscure reason it also does not always give the option to Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments and just goes straight to Photoshop (even though it has been adjusted in Lightroom!).

manicfoto wrote:
Richard, perhaps I have not made the issue clear. If I import an image into Lightroom and choose Edit In Photoshop it should go straight to Photoshop as no changes have been made in Lightroom. However, if I make any adjustments in the Develop module and choose to make further changes in Photoshop I should have the option to Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments etc. This dialog is not offered consistently.
If I make a change in Photoshop it should (and does) correctly save it as a new TIFF file. Again if I make any adjustments in Develop module and then choose to make further changes in Photoshop to the TIFF file it should still offer the dialog box with the copy options. Again this is not happening consistently.
Richard correctly explained how 'Edit In' works with raw files, at least that's the way it does on my Windows 7 64 bit system.
When selecting 'Edit in' with a raw file the 'What to Edit' popup with options for 'Edit a Copy with LR adjustments,' 'Edit a Copy,' and 'Edit Original' will not appear. Instead a TIFF file is created in system memory with LR adustments applied, which then opens in PS. Until you hit 'Save' in PS the TIFF file resides only in system memory. Once you hit 'Save' or Save As' (with the same folder location) the TIFF file will appear inside LR with both the LR and PS adjustments applied.
manicfoto wrote:
trshaner, I have done some further testing of the DNG files, and they do, in fact, also exhibit the same colour shift behaviour, although the amount of the shift seems to depend on the original image - some images show a more marked shift than others which was not obvious to me at first.
This is consistent with LR output rendering engine problem if both the NEF and DNG copy for a specific image take on the same color shift. Since the effect is very subtle on a single conversion I can see where you might have confused the DNG as looking OK.
manicfoto wrote:
I then performed another test with a TIFF file and although the change was smaller the colour definitely shifts, with the amount of shift being determined by the contents of the original image, so I have to conclude that I have the output rendering issue mentioned earlier in the thread.
Incidentally, the colour shift issue is also found if I use the option to Open as a Smart Object in Photoshop.
I have re-installed Lightroom 4.2 but the problem is still the same.
To really confirm that this is being caused by the LR output rendering engine you will need do an additional 'Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments' to the TIFF file. This will create a 2nd TIFF file, which you can then select and then 'Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments.' I would do this at least three times to insure you can see the "cumulative' effect from the LR output rendering engine conversion. You will want to compare the last TIFF file (4th) with the original (1st) TIFF file.
Please try this and post the histograms for the original TIFF and last Tiff with three cumulative 'Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments,' or confirm that's what you have already done in the above posted histograms.

CS5 Save as Jpeg gives colour shift - OK as PSD/Tiff

Hi Guys,
This is a follow on from the "lightroom /CS5 colour shift post" which I have now narrowed down to the following:
I use Win XP pro sp3 fully updated, Dell PC 4GB Ram, LR and CS5 both latest versions. Print through Qimage to epson 7880 - Workflow/ monitor all fully colour profiled. Workspace adobe 1998
Colour setting:
These settings have not changed in years.
My issue is that if I open a jpeg image in CS5 (colour is correct), save as psd or tiff (the colour is correct)
BUT if I save as jpeg (having done nothing to the file!) the colour on the saved file has shifted
I am not getting any profile mismatch warnings - this problem has only surfaced in the last few weeks.
Any ideas would be much appreciated
Thanks, Nigel

Hi again, Sorry had a busy weekend so I had
to disappear! Ok Firstly I cannot understand why a monitor profile could
be the culprit (just to rehash I develop a jpe
g in LR (colour is good, Print is good) Op
en in Cs5 colour looks same. If I save as PSD or Tiff Colour stays the same and prints same - Happy days!
But If I save as a jpeg (with or without a file number change the colour looks ok in CS. BUT when I close it & open it again in CS the colour has shifted. Also this shift is clearly visible in LR and QImage and in the print! It seems to me that the save as jpeg is the problem.
But just in case I reprofiled the monitor this morning (Eye1 display2) but problem is the same.
It has been suggested to me that the best thing to do is to reload CS5 might cure this. Any thoughts?
Also if i do that (I am on upgrades since v5 missing only CS4) Is there a way to skip loading all the versions?
Thanks Nigel

Weird colour shift on TV through HDMI

Hi,
I'm using my TV with XBMC to watch videos on my computer more comfortably, but even since I changed my computer the image get those weird shifts where it goes black for about a second, comes back on looking weird, then about 20 seconds later it's one second of black and then back on as normal again. But if I change channel on my TV when it happens, and then switch back to the HDMI channel corresponding to my computer, the image is fixed. I've tried timing this issue, and it seems to appear roughly every 20 minutes, but it can appear twice in 5 minutes, or not at all in 40...
Because an image is worth a hundred words, I took a picture with my phone during one of these colour shifts, here's what it looks like: http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/3284/imag0063gc.jpg . As you can see by the xbmc menu looking weird too, this is not the video's fault.
I've also tried switching the cable, but the issue remains. I've been using this setup for a while, but as I said, I changed computer recently, and part of this change was going from a nVidia card to an ATI one, more specifically a radeon HD 7870, and I'm using the official AMD driver (which is kind of required, since the free driver apparently doesn't support sound over HDMI for my card yet).
It's probably worth mentioning that my primary display, which is plugged in VGA, does not have this issue. Also, I have a Windows dual-boot, but I have yet to test if this issue also appears on Windows (which is kind of a pain to do, due to the randomness of my issue...).
I've tried googling this for days and have yet to find anyone reporting the same issue, but seeing how English isn't my native language, I might not have used the right keywords...
Because I guess this is relevant, here is my xorg.conf on pastebin: http://pastebin.com/2eWPKnt2 . This was generated using amdcccle, so it should be legit (though I do miss nvidia-settings, amd got some work to do on their GUI tool). Not sure if this is relevant, but just in case : to launch the computer on my TV, I use this xorg.conf (named xorg.conf.TV in my system), and start X with the following command (through an alias, of course):
xinit .xinitrcTV -- /usr/bin/X :1 -config xorg.conf.TV
And my .xinitrcTV containing the following:
setxkbmap fr
xbmc
xterm
So here I am, and I don't really have any idea what I could do to fix this problem... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Colour shift problem in CS5 not in Lightroom

Hi Guys,
This is a long post but to save time Ill try to explain my setup and my problem which has only started in the last three weeks. My setup: Win Xp pro SP3 fully updated on a well speced dell machine/ Lightroom 3 (v 33 v 711369) Cs5 (latest version). Fully self profiled (I write my own profiles using xRite Pulse) printing through QImage to Epson 7880. I have been using PS since v5 (approx 10 years) and Cap1 and then lightroom since it came out.
My workflow is simple: Import Nikon D3 raw files to Lightroom, Using either acr or more recently (maybe one change I have made!) Camera standard calibration. Colour correct crop etc and export an adobe RGB jpeg export setting below: Hi Guys,

NB Also set to do nothing after export!
All good so far. Colours on my profiled monitor are good. If I then print this file through Q image all is good (and this is most of my files!) . Happy days! However if I open in CS5 (Colour settings below-which have not changed for 10 years!) the colour changes. I am getting no profile mismatch warning (I shouldn’t – file is adobe rgb which is my working space). But there is a noticeable colour shift. If I do nothing to the file and resave the colour has shifted. I have tried opening a file/ saving with a different file name and printing the two on the same sheet of paper to eliminate printer issues – the shift that I see on my monitor is there. Why would opening an Adobe RGB jpeg in CS5 change its colour? It certainly never happened before. Also if within Lightroom I click “edit in PS”, open the file and resave the colour has shifted..
((I have also tried preserve embedded profile but this doesn’t solve the issue!)
My workaround is to do lightroom conversion, (colour correct!), Open and edit in CS5 (colour shift) save as different file name, Import into Lightroom (Now says embedded profile (This is correct I think) Do nothing in terms of colour (which now looks correct again!) and export (Wow Correct colour Again!!)
Does anybody know what is going on??
I have used half a roll of paper doing test prints and have established the following:
My monitor profile is correct, (What I see is what I get!)
QImage setting & My printer profile is correct ( What I see is what I get! By printing the two files on the same sheet (this will eliminate printer issues) I can see the CS5 file is very different - as on the monitor)
All lightroom exports are correct (what I see is what I get!)
I also opened a file on CS3 (across a network to a non colour managed machine but with adobe rgb work space, did nothing with the file but resave and the colours shift again!
I attach samples below: The difference reminds me of what an Adobe RGB file looks like on a non colour managed monitor – Flatter (no punch) but also a slightly green
Any Help would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Nigel
NB Also set to do nothing after export!

Very generally, they both describe profiles. ICC is the standard International Color Consortium format for profiles and ICM is Microsoft's flavor (standing for Integrated Color Management, I believe).
Photoshop et. al. are able to use both, but even a name match wouldn't mean the contents are identical. There is some possibility that they actually are equivalent under the covers in this case, and that my spotting the slight difference in names isn't the source of the visible color differences. It is almost certainly why the warning message is being emitted, though.
These may help further with definitions, but are not light reading by any means:

Viewing angle (with no colour shift) on new iPad much narrower than older iPads

I just got a new iPad yesterday and the new display's resolution is magical!! I am unfortunately experiencing the yellow tinted screen that others are, but I'm hopeful this will improve over a short time as any glues involved perhaps dry. I THINK perhaps it's already improved though this could be my imagination, hard to tell. It's also clear on a totally black screen that it fails to go as dark as my iPad 2, which itself failed to go as dark as my iPad 1. Still, that resolution, spectacular...
I am however also experiencing a very narrow viewing angle, especially in the vertical direction, it's the most worse when held in normal portrait orientation with the cameras at the top, if I tilt the top of the iPad away from me then the entire screen colour shifts to yellow quite strongly within about 10 degrees or so. I'll shoot some video of it at some point compared to the iPad 2. I wonder if the colour yellow could be linked to the general yellow tint that can be seen on whites even in perfectly straight viewing. But I also wonder if the new retina display just has a much narrower viewing angle without colour shift compared to the older iPads.
Would love to hear how other people's new iPad screens are performing in this regard. Are they all shifting as they're tilting, especially in that vertical tilt I described?
Cheers

I have the same problem. Here is the pic I took to compare with my old iPad 2.

Cour shift from aperture to photoshop.

hi again ,
Its not been my day today.. [ see last post].
Can somebody point out what I am doing wrong in the following....
Shoot in RAW- adobe rgb - aperture is set to proof adobe rgb. Open image in external editor [ photoshop] - proof is set to on with following settings...
adobe rgb, perceptual, black point checked.
Colour settings are...
adobe rgb - rgb
U.S.web ceb coated - cmyk
gray 2.2
dot gain 20%
colour management- ask when opening
engine adobe ace
intent perceptual.
Monitor is an eizo cg241 calibrated using gretag macbeth eye 1
[my paper /printed has a new custom icc profile.]
However- The colour shift when opening an image in photoshop is not good- photoshop looks drab compared to the apeture rendition.
Can anyone see why the two versions have different colours? where am I going wrong?
Cheers John

Update - i have two monitors- have just changed the colour sync to the eizo monitor profile from from the cinema display and believe it has sorted out my problem

Printed colour is different between two elements both created in pages with the same colour

Hi There,
I have been having some issues getting a text colour to match a logo (imported in pdf format) - While trying to discover what was happening I created a sample colour of (HSB 189 / 89 / 73) in pages and saved it in my colours palette to test.
Now if I create some text (in pages) and a shape (also in pages) and colour them from the same colour sample/swatch and print it - the colours are clearly very different, Does pages do some kind of text colour correcting or weirdness that I cant find? Its hard to believe this is the desired workflow and its very anoying.
PS. I have also tried printing from a pdf and I have the same issues - That said the two colours look identical in pages and the pdf on screen.
I'd be extremely grateful for any help
NB I have since read
https://discussions.apple.com/message/9263007#9263007
Which although is helpful and may explain the behavious of the imported logo pdf vs the text it doesn't (I dont think) explain how two elements both created in pages using the same colour (from pages) would be dfferent?

They are both coming out at the exact same colour (CMYK 83, 0, 21, 0) which is correct however they are not the same colours when printed, Im begining to think this is less of a pages thing (as the output is correct) but something is going wrong between pdf/pages and print
Its not the easiest thing to see so you may have to take my word for it - but the two colours are not the same by quite a long way (Theres way more contrast in real life)
I think Im ready to admit defeat on this but thanks a bunch for your help!

Js import colour swatches from an other file

Hi all
I am trying to import the colour swatches from an other file into the current document.
I was hoping this would be just like importing Par or Char Styles...
... app.activeDocument.importStyles(_theFormat_, sourceFile, importPolicy);
But I have so far had no luck.
Can anybody give me some hints.
Thank you very much
Romano

Hi Romano,
Can you please try the below JS code, The code is just import the swatches from the desktop document onto the active InDesign document.
var myColorDoc = new File("~/Desktop/color.indd");
app.activeDocument.loadSwatches(myColorDoc);
