Missing Grayscale profiles for export

I have began to use LR2 for my scanned B&W images. When I export them, the only profile choices are color profiles. So I click Other..., a window pops up with the text "Choose profiles to appear in Custom Profile popup:"
But there is no way to choose profiles - the only option is "Include Display Profiles", which is not what I want - I'm looking for Gray Gamma 2.2.
So I have to export with a color profile, then convert back to Gray 2.2 in Photoshop - not excactly non-destructive.
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature? Or am I missing something?

> ... Am I correct, from your postings that you must export in color to Photoshop CS3, ...
You can create the grayscale image in Lr, but realise that it is still a RGB image, and only Ps can convert it to a "true" grayscale" image. Also realise, that the 2 are entirely equivelent, even if the RGB image file size is 3x larger. Therefore, a RGB grayscale with sRGB embedded is absolutely equivelent to a grayscale image with the "gray 2.2" profile embedded.

  • Color profile for export in Aperture 3.0.3

    Hi
    What is the best color profile for exporting in aperture 3.0.3 (specially, if the pictures are used for stock). I normally use the export version TIFF or PNG original. Is ADOBE 1998 or sRGB or something else? In Photoshop I have sRGB.
    Thank you for your advice.

    Colour Profiles don't have a best one. It is a way of matching colour produced by one type of device so that it is reproduced by another type reasonably well. Allan

  • Recommended sRGB profile for export - use in browsers

    Is there any recommended sRGB profile for use in internet presentation? Below you find the same picture displayed in chrome (left) and internet explorer (right). Colors look quite different, the chrome version appears to be much more natural, the saturation of the ie-version seems to be higher. I know that color management capabilities of different browsers are different. Is there ICC profile recommended that does not show these effects?
    The picture was generated using the LR export function. File Format JPEG, Colorspace sRGB.

    I see you have a wide gamut monitor...which means the first thing you must learn is to forget IE and deny its very existence . It's useless.
    There is only one sRGB, that's not your problem. The problem is IE not converting that sRGB source profile to the monitor profile for display.
    They botched it completely with IE. Instead of a normal color management chain - converting source data to your monitor profile - IE converts everything to sRGB and passes that on to the display. What a brilliant idea that was...this way they made absolutely sure, with 100% certainty, that it will never display correctly - especially vividly demonstrated on a wide gamut monitor. Yes, that was sarcasm.
    A wide gamut display requires fully color managed software to work as intended. You also need a valid monitor profile for that software to use. These are absolute requirements, no exceptions.
    You need a web browser with full color management in all scenarios. The only one that qualifies is Firefox, with color management set to mode 1. This assigns sRGB to all untagged material, honors all embedded profiles, and converts that to your monitor profile for display. No other browser delivers on all counts.

  • IPhoto 08 and the missing Shutterfly button for exporting

    Does any know what happened to the shutterfly button that was in iPhoto 06 for exporting, it seems to be gone in the 08 version???
    Help my wife is giving me grief about upgrading to Leopard and iPhoto 08!!

    If shutterfly has an export plugin for iPhoto '08 it typically would need to be installed from Shutterfly (it is not an Apple product) and then would appear as a tab in the file menu ==> export pager
    Check out the Shutterfly page for iPhoto '08 (version 7.x.x) assistance

  • Colorsync Profile for exporting to print

    Hi All,
    What Colorsync Profile should I use for a generic printing service? I know I should work in / export in sRGB for the web but what about if I am getting prints done from a local photo lab?
    Cheers,
    W00DY

    Absolutely use the calibrated profile. sRGB originated as an approximation of what most CRT monitors could display. But it was just an approximation and differs quite a bit from Color LCD or any calibrated profile. Color LCD for MacBook Pros is actually quite a bit smaller than sRGB and reflects the fact that laptop LCDs can't display the same range of colours as, say, and Apple Cinema Display. Have a look at the different profiles in ColorSync Utility to get a feel for what they all look like. Select a profile and then rotate the 3-D map of the profile in the right-hand side pane.
    If you have calibrated your monitor and they came out with a green tint I would suggest that the problem is more likely with the printer rather than your monitor. (You are way ahead of 95% of people - myself included - by using a hardware calibrator; nonetheless, you could do the calibration again and compare the resulting profiles by, say, switching between them and seeing how that affects your colour display on your monitor or by comparing them in ColorSync Utility.)
    To isolate the problem - try using a different printer for your next run and compare. Indeed, if you have the time and care enough, try sending the same file to various printers to see the variation. Pick one you are happy with and then stick with them.

  • Export as PDF with embedded profiles for Grayscale images

    Does InDesign CS6 export pages with Grayscale images as PDF with embedded profiles?
    Possible profiles, for instance:
    – Gamma 2.2
    – Dot gain 20%
    – Black Ink ISO Coated v2 (ECI)
    Export mode:
    – Acrobat 5 or higher
    – No color conversion
    – Embed all profiles
    Test by Acrobat Pro
    Advanced > Print production > Preflight > PDF analysis > List objects using ICC/Lab/Calibrated Color
    [The question is not about the export of Color images as Grayscales]
    Best regards --Gernot Hoffmann

    I wouldn't ever use different RGB profiles and different CMYK profiles and
    different Gray profiles in one doc – it's just necessary for tests.
    If you had a hypothetical case where your InDesign document's assigned CMYK profile and intended output was ISOcoated_v2_300_eci and you recieved grayscales for placement with different gray profiles assigned, I think you would have to make the conversion in Photoshop if you want the grayscales to be converted to your ISOcoated_v2_300_eci output intent space.
    So in this case I have a grayscale image with Dot Gain 10% assigned and you can see the 50% patch is reading as 50% in Info panel:
    If set my Working Gray space to the ISO Coated profile as above and do a Convert to Profile with the Destination set to Working Gray:
    The preview doesn't change but I get converted gray values—50% is now 44%:
    If I place the grayscale in an InDesign doc with ISOcoated_v2_300_eci assigned as the CMYK profile, the preview won't change (you have to turn on Overprint /Sep Preview), and the converted numbers will show in Separation Preview. The preview and numbers will also be unchanged in Acrobat if you export to default PDF/X-4

  • Missing Wraptor DCP Format for Export

    Good morning.
    I have a fresh install of Windows 7 64bit and a new install of Premiere Pro CC 2014 8.1.0 (81) Build.  When opening a previous project from Premiere Pro CC I do not have the Wraptor DCP format for exporting.  If I create a new project and sequence and dump a video file on the timeline and try and export it's still not there.  I checked the plug-ins/common folder and I do have the Wraptor.prm file in there.   I've searched and searched the web and have not seen an issue like this before. I did see something from Oct about it not being supported yet, but I have a second Windows machine (Windows 7 64bit) that I installed PPro on and it's there.  I should note that in Encore (build 8.1.0.122) I'm missing the Cinema System Preset with Wraptor DCP too.  Is there a prerequisite for getting the DCP option that I missed?  I don't remember doing anything special on the other machine for it.  Also, to note, I have uninstalled both and reinstalled to make sure it wasn't a botched install.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Solved my own issue.  Apparently in the barrage of Windows updates I had not yet grabbed SP1.  Once that downloaded Wraptor DCP was now a selection in both PPro and Encore.  Anyone else that comes across this in Windows 7, make sure you have SP1 installed.

  • Change colour profile on export of jpeg for using files on windows pc

    My father, who is 80, has a mac and aperture.
    He is reasonable proficient using it, but as a windows user myself I'm unsure of the in's and out's of things and it always falls on me to help him when he has a problem.
    He also has a windows computer, which he has a programme on for making calenders.
    The problem we have is that when he saves his photo's after editing in aperture to a dvd, he puts this dvd into his windows pc and he cannot see any of the previews.
    On opening up any picture in photoshop on the pc, it asks if he wants to use the embedded colour profile or change it.
    I'm wondering if Aperture is exporting using a certain profile which windows cannot read? Thus doesn't show the preview.
    He needs the preview to pick which pictures he wants to use on the calender.
    He then stores all his pictures on the dvd.
    I'm pretty sure he shoots as jpegs, not raw. Though I need to ask him.
    He has several different cameras, and I think he has trouble with all of them. I'm pretty sure one is a nikon d5300 (I just googled red body nikon)
    Is there a colour profile for aperture when saving as a jpeg that is compatible with windows?
    It's a hundred mile round trip to visit and to then sit down and try to work it out by trial and error would take some time. 
    So if I can find an answer and call on the phone to tell him what to do, it'd save me a lot of time
    I'm not sure what Mac he has, what OS he's using or which version of Aperture, he only recently bought it, so guess at the latest one.......... I know I'm a great help !!!!!
    I can find out if needed, but thought there might be an easy fix....... I know, whenever is there an easy fix for anything!!!
    Cheers,
    Graham

    There is no standard for a 'Preview'. It's a feature of the software that is opening a file as to how it shows those files to the user for selection. Some software will look in the file header for a thumbnail, some will use the files associated icon (if it has one) and some will just present a list of file names. I seriously doubt changing the colour profile output by Aperture will have any impact on this.
    Although Aperture doesn't have a calendar feature, iPhoto does and as of the last year or so, Aperture has an option to open it's library in iPhoto. So if he has a current enough version of Aperture and iPhoto, he could avoid the issue altogether if he is happy to switch into iPhoto to make the Calendar.
    If he wasn't using DVD (say a USB thumbdrive instead) he could run a utility on the PC to create icons for the files where the icon is a thumbnail of the picture, which the calendar software might then use when prompting for images to load. But the use of DVD complicates this, as it depends on the DVD drivers and file systems in use on the DVD.

  • Using Color profiles and exporting for web browsers

    I've been trying to figure out the answer to this question. As I'm sure you're aware Safari supports color profiles while other web browsers like Firefox do not. I would like to setup Aperture so that it displays and exports images for the widest audience possible. Unfortunately it embeds a color profile and my images on the web only display correctly in Safari. I've tried changing the proofing profiles and export settings to no avail. I didn't seem to have this problem in iPhoto, a picture there looked the same on screen as it did in Safari and Firefox but I can't achieve the same with Aperture...

    Thanks for that information, unfortunately I'm not really any closer to solving the issue since I've already tried that. 1) by default, doesn't Aperture automatically embed the sRGB color profile? 2) if I set view>proofing mode to sRGB shouldn't what I see on screen match what a "dumb" application such as Firefox does when it ignores the embedded profile and display sRGB? I've tried going into the preferences>export settings and changed everything to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 but I see no difference in the final image between that and the default setting.
    I guess my question is more specific to Aperture since I don't have this problem with other applications. For example, in photoshop if I do Export for Web it strips out any embedded profile and when I open that image in Firefox and Safari side-by-side they are exactly the same. But not so when I export an image from Aperture, when opened in Firefox it is desaturated and flat and of course in Safari it honors the embedded profile and looks fine.

  • Correct Lens Profile Not Available for Exported/Imported Image Files

    Any help with this would be appreciated.  I just noticed yesterday that when I have RAW (DNG) files in my LR5.2 library, I can select the correct lens profile to apply.  When I take three of those files and merge them together in Photomatix Pro they come back as a single TIFF file.  Now LR only has one lens profile available, and it is the wrong one.
    This is happening with my Sony NEX-7 and Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR DI-III VC.  With the RAW files, I have a list of Tamron lenses from which to choose, and the correct one is available.  For the merged TIFF file, however, only a single Tamron lens is available for selection, and it is not the lens I used.
    If anyone has any ideas about this and can get me past it, I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    ~Steve

    Here's my workflow for this particular situation:  After importing the original RAW files, I apply lens correction using the correct profile.  I export to another application that creates a new (TIFF) file that comes back into LR.  Even though I already applied the correction to the original files, I can see that there is a difference in distortion between the original files and the new TIFF.
    If your other application is opening the Raw file directly, it will likely be disregarding either most, or all, Lightroom adjustments even if they are somehow communicated to it. It will come down to whatever independent Raw support is built into the other application.
    The other application would still need to (a) "understand" about Adobe lens profiles etc, (b) "know" where to find the appropriate Adobe profile on disk, and (c) be equipped to do the specific and proprietary processing that they refer to. The same applies for all the other Adobe-proprietary processing instructions. The only software I am aware of which can do all this reliably, in partnership with LR, is Adobe Camera Raw plus Photoshop.
    I've trained myself that whenever a new file is created in an application outside of LR (including PS), I always re-apply lens correction upon first returning to LR.  If I'm interpreting   the above responses correctly, I shouldn't need to re-apply lens correction if I applied it to the original files.  But again, it's not my observation that this is the case.
    If your particular workflow is failing to reflect the first application of lens corrections (as well as perhaps, other specific adjustments) - then what returns to LR will not have undergone those kinds of corrections yet.
    I'm also hearing that I may need to download a lens profile for this lens for a TIFF file format.  I've never needed to do that before, so perhaps I'll give that a shot.
    As I understand it, Photomatix can also accept converted TIFFs or JPGs from LR - instead of Raw fles. I am skeptical that you will realise any "clear water" advantage from sending Raws rather than TIFF (or even, high quality JPG in many cases) from LR into Photomatix  - assuming the LR conversion is already optimising the images for the required purpose. You would be doing that step in an interactive environment rather than blindly via a generic converter. Such intermediate bitmaps are in my experience perfectly good candidates for HDR processing, or for exposure fusion (which I prefer - though I don't use Photomatix in particular).
    Any workflow which causes LR to in effect Export suitable bitmaps that incorporate all current adjustments, will embody lens corrections as part of that. By the way, the workflow into Photoshop HDR is similarly done by way of converted bitmaps - though in that case it is ACR rather than LR which achieves these converted bitmaps, and into memory rather than into separately saved files, but the outcome is effectively the same.
    The only downside is the "cleanup" is to get rid of intermediate TIFFS or JPGs afterwards. I usually put the completed "merged" image at the top of a "stack" containing the component exposures, and collapse the stack down. But the (disposable) intermediates don't get imported to LR, and by setting these to occur in a subfolder or with a distinctive name suffix, they are easily found and deleted in due course.

  • Missing camera calibration profile for supported camera

    I am relatively new to Lightroom.  I have imported Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200 raw (.RW2) files into Lightroom 5.3.   When I go into the Develop module under the Camera Calibration the only profile that shows up is Adobe Standard.  My camera is supported according to the Adobe web site.  What gives?

    Bob, like the above post mentioned, I am also fairly new to Lightroom and still learning a lot of how things are suppose to work. I'm sure my problem is similar to the above post but can you please clarify this for me one more time. In my case...
    I use a PC running Windows 7.
    I'm running Lightroom 4.4.1, Camera Raw 7.4
    I import photos from a Pentax K20D camera.
    In the "Develop" module under "Camera Calibration" I only see 4 profiles which are "embedded," "ACR 4.4," "Adobe Standard" and "Camera Standard."
    Is everything correct? Am I suppose to see a camera profile for my Pentax Camera? If so, how do I properly install a camera profile for my Pentax K20D camera?
    I followed the path C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles and I found the "Adobe Standard" folder and in there where tons of camera profiles. I also found the camera folder and it had also different camera model folders in there including my Pentax K20D, however nothing shows up in Lightroom itself under camera calibration.
    Can you please clarify how all this works? Thanks!

  • AIR for iOS getting error while uploading the app, ITMS-9000 "Missing Provisioning Profile"

    hi!
    I get this error, when uploading the binary to Itunes. Any help, on how to solve out this problem ? And what does it mean ?

    for install on devices, you need to use a distribution cert. and a distribution provisioning profile for adhoc. When ready for AppStore you can use same distribution cert. but distribution provision profile for appstore. i completely use Windows PC for my entire process and use testflight to distribute to my testers. I'm not sure how the process is for simulator on the Mac is.  I just the use mac to create my certs and profiles and then application loader.
    When you tried upload to testflight did u use a distribution cert (p12) and an adhoc distibution provisioning profile. Also are the devices you are sending to are also registered to that profile.
    Also ive been doing this for 3 years now but consider myself a newbie still cuz I'm self taught and still learning and my ways of doing things in an unorthodox way but on average I have about 10 uploads of updates or new apps to the AppStore a year and haven't had an app rejected. These forms will be your best resource of info with users like @colin.
