How to install Epson ICC profiles using Photoshop CC?

How to install Epson ICC profiles ussing Photoshop CC on Mac?

Danny,
Just stop and think for a moment. Firstly, it's not Rocket science to produce an icc profile, and does not involve the profile having to physically 'fit' into a pre-formed item such as the razor blade analogy you used.
Secondly, If the likes of Epson and HP did produce printer profiles for all makes of paper, can you imagine how much more product they would sell. Printer companies are currently missing out on substantial amounts of income at the moment because the cost of their inks is more expensive than gold! Thus, the third party ink manufacturers - although not producing an ink as good as the original - are earning large sums of money and once again this is income loss to the major printer manufactures. Can you imagine what would happen if certain vehicles would only run on a specific fuel? I don't mean Diesel or Petroleum, but different manufacturers, Shell, Texaco, Murco etc.
At the end of the day the only person who is adversely affected by this business model is us, the consumer.
I really don't think they need you to be standing up for them Danny.

You don't. Color profiles require specific measurement hardware and software.

How to Install (copy) ICC Profiles

I have two computers running fully updated versions of Mountain Lion. One has all the desired ICC profiles installed in Library>Printers>Epson>InkjetPrinter and in Photoshop the profiles show up just fine and I can make my selections.
On my other computer, the profiles had been there but disappeared in one upgrade or another. I tried having them installed automatically by deleting and reinstalling the printer drivers via the Print & Scan System Preferences. The driver gets re-installed but no profiles. I tried copying the profiles from the one computer to the exact location on the second computer and still no luck. Profiles of two of my other printers are all present, but not the one I'm trying to get added.
I have restarted many times along the way and even tried replacing the whole Epson folder with no change.
Does anyone have an idea of how I can copy those profiles to where they'll work?
FWIW, these profiles are for an older Epson 2200 which is still supported according to Apple's list. It works fine and does print perfect color through the computer that shows the profiles. Profiles for my Epson 7880 and Canon MX870 show on both computers.

Here is the location where the Epson v2.12 Printer Drivers for OS X (Oct. 4) will install the Stylus Pro 2200 .icc profiles. Everything from Printers inward is owned by root and group admin. The individual .icc files are read/write for root, and read only for everyone else.
I used CharlesSoft dot com Pacifist to discover this information. Downloaded the above Epson Driver dmg from Apple/support/downloads. Then opened it with Pacifist. Looked in Contents of EPSONPrinterDrivers.pkg. It is possible to drag the SP2200_A.profile and SP2200_W.profile bundles from Pacifist into the /Library directory hierarchy. You may have to create /InkjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles folders manually and permit them root:admin first.
Not for the faint of heart. If I was invested in Epson printers as you are, I would simply install the whole v2.12 installation package above. That should build the directory hierarchy for you. (fingers crossed).

Install additional ICC Profiles

I cannot find how to install ICC profiles other than the provided defaults of ProPhoto, Adobe RGB and Adobe sRGB. Can someone please tell me how to install additional ICC profiles.
Thank you,
Jim Palik

The Camera Calibration profiles (Adobe Standard, Camera Neutral, etc) are camera profiles developed by Adobe through their internal camera-calibration process for each new camera. You can make your own Camera Calibration profiles with the DNG Profile Editor and a X-Rite Color Checker standard color target.
The ICC profiles installed on your system are output profiles developed by mostly others that are not related to your camera. The internal profile LR uses for processing is a variant of the large ProPhotoRGB profile with a different gamma. LR is not like Photoshop where you can change the work space profile if that’s what you mean.

Unable to install Epson ICC printer profiles in Lion (access privileges message)

I upgraded to Lion and cannot install Epson ICC printer profiles. When I try to install, the installation is halted with the message that I do not have enough access privileges for this installation. Yes, I am the admin (I checked, as I know this is a known issue). I have the current updates to the O/S and the Epson driver. Specifically, these are printer paper profiles for an Espon Stylus Photo R2800 printer.

The ownership of the /Library/ColorSync directory and its contents changed in Lion. You acutally do not have enough priviliges as admin to write to that directory anymore. EPSON's installer does not have the ability to ask you for your password to escalate the admin privileges to root. You should report this to EPSON and insist that they update their installer.
There is a way to get the files installed, but it is pretty involved. I will give you the general idea but USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. There is a risk you could break your system and make it unusable.
With those admonitions in mind, here's the general outline.
1. Go to /Library/ColorSync. Highlight the folder and do a Get Info on it.
2. Under the Sharing & Permissions portion, give "everyone" the ability to Read & Write. Then choose to have this applied to all enclosed items.
3. Run the EPSON installer(s). The profiles will now install.
4. Change the ownership and permissions for all the installed items useing the Terminal--
For the EPSON folder the command is 'sudo chown -R root:wheel path_to_EPSON_folder'
For each and every item in the EPSON folder, the command is 'sudo chmod 644 path_to_item'
5. Open Disk Utility and Repair Permssions.

Could anyone please let me know how to set a ICC profile with Acrobat dlls using Csharp or VB

Could anyone please let me know how to set a ICC profile with Acrobat dlls using Csharp or VB

Cant we even use the dlls in an application?
In order to automate Acrobat, you need to have Acrobat installed. There is
nothing you can do with just the DLLs. As was already stated, Acrobat is
not licensed for use on a server, but regardless of that, it's also
not technically suitable for server use. You need to find a solution
outside of Acrobat to solve your problem.
It also seems that you don't have a good understanding of what is going in
inside a PDF file. PDF is a very complex file format, and based on
your questions
and followup questions, you need to spend a considerable amount of time
getting familiar with the PDF file format to understand how color works in
the PDF context. Reader the PDF spec, while paying special attention to the
section about color. You will find out that if you want to convert the
color space of a "PDF file", you actually need to convert the color space
associated with every single object in your PDF file. That is fairly simple
for vector graphic and text, but when it comes to images, you may have to
convert the image data. Once you have a good understanding of what it is
you need to do within the PDF file, then you can start looking for tools
that allow you to do that. Again, Acrobat and therefore the Acrobat SDK is
not suitable for this task. If you want to stay with Adobe products take a
serious look at the PDF Library, which his licensed through Datalogics (
http://www.datalogics.com/products/pdf/pdflibrary/). As you've mentioned,
there are other, non-Adobe PDF libraries that you can also use, but this is
the Acrobat SDK forum, so I won't discuss any of those 3rd party solutions.
You are wasting your time while looking for a simple solution that does not
exist.

How to get the list of icc profile,which Photoshop loaded?

I am developing a automation plugin,but I do not know how to get the list of icc profile,which photoshop loaded.
I have read the log of "getter" and "Listener",and not find the way to get the list.

Thank you for you answer.
I find a icc profile has a "internal name" which show in the color setting menu in photoshop and a "external name" which is the file name. And the "internal name" maybe different with "external name".
How I can get the "internal name" from the icc profile? I do not find the information in the ICC Profile Format Specification.
Thank you very much!

How do I get imovie to use Photoshop Elements 12 as external editor?

How do I get imovie to use Photoshop Elements 12 as external editor? I am making a movie slide show with music from my Caribbean vacation photos and adding text captions to photos in PS Elements 12. I can also add some effects to photos like edge blur although I like iphotos effects better but iphoto doesn't seem to do text. The finished PS Elements photo doesn't seem to want to be shared by iphoto which is what imovie uses...
I am still learning to use PS Elements 12 for Mac (had PSE 7 for WinVista but wasn't proficient) and Mac and it's programs are new to me. I switch between my old Dell which is still amped for graphics and the new Mac mini. I started to use Movie Maker to do my vacation project but read that imovie was better but so far it doesn't seem to have as broad of file useage when it comes to imovie and photo files.
Hmmmmm??? What to do?

You simply need to create your stills with Photoshop Elements, save them in a suitable format (.jpg, .png, .tiff are all acceptable) then drag and drop them into your iMovie timeline. You don't have to use iPhoto.

NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder. You'll need to do it again after each system update that's applied.

How can I remove an object using Photoshop Elements 7?

How can I remove an object using Photoshop Elements 7?

You could probably use the 8 point garbage matte in this situation. I personally think the 8-point garbage matte is a bit cumbersome, but it should get the job done.
1. Use the Razor Blade tool to place a cut before and after the shot with the bottle.
2. Select the bottle clip.
3. Press and hold Shift + Option, then drag the bottle clip up one track. This should create a duplicate clip directly above your original clip. (I'll refer to this duplicated clip as bottle2.)
4. Locate the 8-point Garbage Matte filter and apply it to bottle2.
5. Locate the Gaussian Blur filter and apply it to bottle2.
6. Control click bottle1, and uncheck the "Clip Enable" setting from the shortcut menu. This will disable that clip.
7. Double click bottle2 to load it into the Viewer. Then select the Filter tab.
8. For the Garbage Matte filter, you'll notice 8 rows of numbers, these are the current locations for the control points, which you should be able to see in the Canvas. Start with point #1, and click the "+" button in the filters area, then in the Canvas click and drag to move the point. When you release the mouse button, you'll need to reclick the "+" button in the filters tab. Repeat these steps until you've isolated the bottle.
9. Feather the edge of the matte.
10. Adjust the Blur amount.
11. Reenable bottle1. Playback the clip and make any necessary adjustments.
Depending on your experience with Motion, you might also want to try sending bottle1 to Motion, then use Motion to control the layering.
