"New document" color problem

Hello
Something happened to my CS5.5 Illustrator. Now, each time I start a new document, the color swatches come up with different values. They come "associated" with the profile I chose in Color settings. The problem is that I'm not managing to get the real color space. I never get the default values C=100 M=100 Y=100 K=100 but allways a transformation, i.e: Cyan comes up with a C=57,09; M=13,45 instead of C=100.
I've tryed everything before opening a new document: change (on, off, preserve numbers, etc), convert, assign many RGB and CMYK profiles but nothing works. Each time I start a new one it just shifts the values a bit.
Strangely, with a "bad" document open, when I open the default library the values come correct. It appears to be a start up problem. Off course I could open the default library but I don't wont to do that each time. It's anoying.
ps: The name off the "bad" swatches: "RGBCyan", etc.
Thank you for you time.

Hello John.
And thanks for the quick reply.
It's happening in the CMYK color mode. That's why it's so strange.
In more than 10 years off experience with Illustrator I've never seen nothing like this.
When searching for help in the forums I've read about some color situation with CS6 and the new Lab association. But I supose it didn't "contaminate" CS5.5. Unless it did.. in some update. Hope not.
Thank you, once again.

  • Stretched 'New Document', 'Color Picker'  dialogue boxes in Illustrator CS5.

    I opened Illustrator today and was prompted with the "Adobe Illustrator as detected a problem in the windows registry..." message. I came to these discussions and found that people got around this message by opening the program as the ADMIN. Taking these actions myself seemed to work. Once I got the program seemingly up and running again I went to open a new document only to find that when the New Document box opened it was stretched and inaccessible (see below).
    I then opened a file just to see if anything else was odd and got the same thing when opening the Color Picker (see below)
    It also occurred when I deleted a layer with artwork on it....needless to say, it's a mystery and I was hoping someone could help.
    Thank you!
    UPDATE: Upon further investigations, this appears to be happening to ALL of the dialogue boxes. And that it only appears to be happening to Illustrator, not Photoshop or InDesign.

  • When I open a new document in Pages, the text I type is white on a white background even though the default color is black.  Can someone help?

    When I open a new document in Pages, the text I type appears white instead of the default black color.  I can highlight the text, once I find it, but it will not change to anything other than a light purple.

    Those are the symptoms many users ran into with an early update to Snow Leopard that never was fixed in the updates available through Software Update & not having the iWork apps updated. The problem was not whether or not your system is the current version but how it got there. You must use the combo updater, not the one from Software Update unless it specifically states it is the combo. Software Update will only offer the combo if your system is two or more versions behind. Now that you're running Lion, this generally isn't a problem.
    But making sure the iWork apps are updated is essential. If you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps installed from a retail box or the downloaded trial & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

  • Problem with saving a new document

    hey i just wrote a new document and when i try to save it, it says "the file 'untitled' can not be opened because it has been deleted" which is really confusing me because i am not trying to save it as untitle nor am i trying to open anything.
    Thanks

    This is a problem with no specific cause. It usually is fixed by using Disk Utility to repair permissions and deleting the AppleWorks 6 preferences. See my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, for more on the preferences.

  • I am new to scripting & I need Script for Document color mode

    Hi,
    Please help me to create a script which should find the Document color mode. I am new to scripting. And please let me know how to use the same.
    Balaji

    Are you using the Extendscript Toolkit Editor (ESTK)? In the Help menu you can find all the properties for Document that can be queried/changed.
    (Personally, I don't use ESTK, because I really really hate it. But I don't want to miss the Help, so I made my own version. I have Illustrator CS4, and it's possible your version doesn't have this, but under Document I find:
    documentColorSpace
    DocumentColorSpace:
    DocumentColorSpace.RGB
    DocumentColorSpace.CMYK
    readonly
    The color space used for the document.
    For the how-to-use I glady refer you to Adobe's own Starting With Scripting guides.)

    Check the spot color options of that document.
    It's in the swatches panel's menu.

  • New document: How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems

    Have you ever had problems with PDF attachments sent from Adobe Reader for iOS using Share > E-mail Document?
    You may find this document useful to avoid the problems.
    How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems
    Please let us know if you have encountered different types of problems with PDF attachments.  We can look for solutions or workarounds for you.

    Unfortunately, we (Adobe Reader mobile team) do not know if/when Apple will fix the attachment problems (software defects) in Apple Mail.
    In particular, the attachment problem with Microsoft Outlook (See Problem #2 in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems) appears to be a long-standing defect that has been known for years.  However, Apple has not provided any fix for Apple Mail yet.
    Adobe Reader for iOS merely launches Apple Mail (the default mail app on iOS) to send a PDF document as an attachment.  Adobe Reader has no control over whether or not to embed a preview image of an attachment in the body of an email message, which is known to cause the problem with Microsoft Outlook (on the receiving side).  The same problem happens when you send a single-page PDF document as an attachment along with an email signature from Apple iBooks on iOS.
    For now, all iPad/iPhone users can do is to avoid the problems by using the workarounds that are described in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems.
    When new and different problems with PDF attachments are reported by Adobe Reader for iOS users, we will update the document above.
    Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • When i open a new illustrator cs6 document color swatches do no appear in the swatch panel. MAC 10.9.3 user

    my color swatch do not appear in the swatch panel when i open a new cs6 document. MAC 10.9.3 user

    Swatches are included in the New documents profiles that are included in the "Profile" menu. Have you been selecting a profile from there deliberately? What happens if you do so now - select for instance "Print" or "Web"?
    If documents still don't contain swatches and you're certain you didn't change the document profiles, then they might have been corrupted.

  • New Document - sizing and color profile

    I am using Photoshop CS6 13.0.1 x64 and I can't seem to get the settings for a new document to stick.
    When I make a new document my color profile never matches my color settings (RGB: Adobe RGB (1998); CMYK: U.S. Sheetfed Coated v2; Convert to Working RGB; Convert to Working CMYK; Ask when opening), it always is reset to sRGB. Also, when I create a new document it doesn't seem to remember either what I used last or what is in my clipboard - it always resets to 1 x 67.
    Is there some hidden setting I'm missing?

    Short standard answer: If prefs don't stick, you have permissions issues. Verify your user privileges and file permissions on the prefs folder.

  • CS4 When I open new document I get a swatch pallet full of colors.

    CS4 When I open new document I get a swatch pallet full of colors. Is there a way to open a new document with no colors in the swatch pallet?
    Thanks

    Search for New Document Profiles. Open each file that you regularly use and from the Action panel run the default action Delete Unused Panel Items. Save the file. You should now have empty swatch panels.
