Photoshop limited to sRGB

Hello everybody, i´m stuck with calibrating my Dell U2711(wide gamut) on Windows7, CS6.
Up to now i used it with the integrated Adobe RGB preset and a standard profile. After calibration with i1displayPro (monitor in custom preset, slight changes to reach D65 whitepoint) i got a solid ICC2 profile which seems to fill the Adobe RGB space quite well (compared them in 3D).
The point where i´m helpless and can´t get any further is the color rendering in PS and ACR, the colors are limited to a sRGB like saturation level. I´ve set my Creative Suite Color settings to aRGB, disabled Softproofing in PS.
Here is what red (255,0,0) looks like:
left: proofing OFF
middle: sRGB proof
right: monitor proof

the integrated Adobe RGB preset and a standard profile.
i am not sure what that means?
can´t get any further is the color rendering in PS and ACR, the colors are limited
Photoshop and ACR convert/transform the source space to the monitor profile so when you Assign/softproof a different profile of course Photoshop will display it differently (it is totally predictable)
Softproofing in PS
View> Proof Setup generally confuses most people and discussions about trying to troubleshoot display issues...
left: proofing OFF
middle: sRGB proof
right: monitor proof
proofing off: this is what you want to "proof" your source document 'accurately' on your monitor (use/apply the correct ICC profile and Photoshop will display your document properly) -- softproofing is generally used to "soft proof" a device-specific profile, like a printer
sRGB proof: that is unclear, you mean you Edit> Assigned sRGB profile (or you are softproofing the sRGB colorspace)?
monitor proof: you mean you, Edit> Assigned the monitor profile (or are softproofing Monitor RGB)?

Am I limited to srgb by imac monitor?

Hello, I hope I'm on the correct forum. I must say I've been using LR4 for a few months now, and think it's a very good
editor indeed. I've now just started with Photoshop (£17.58/month subscription), and whilst setting up options I've decided
I must once and for all decide upon whether to use srgb or adobe rgb 1998
I have been using srgb because I have an imac, which I understand is fine for viewing srgb, but as it's not large gamut it
won't display all of the adobe rgb 1998 colours.
I can see adobe rgb 1998 has a lot going for it, but I can't really find answers to a few questions, and would be most grateful
for advice on the following:
1) If I can't SEE the extra adobe rgb colours on my imac screen, then I'm presumably, even if using adobe rgb, only actually
seeing / working with what my imac (srgb?) monitor can see, so should I stick with srgb?
2) I have just calibrated my imac screen with a Datacolor spyder4elite, when I also changed brightness to 140 (tried to get it to 120,
but the increments would only give me 107 or 140?!) and so I now presume (hope) that what I see is what I get. But this leads to
another question, which is that if I work with adobe rgb, but the imac screen limits my view to srgb, then how can adobe rgb improve
my output, and how will I know what the print should look like? I mean it seems like giving an artist dull-coloured paints, but telling
him it's ok as the finished painting will have brighter colours - he won't know what he's working with, because he's just painting what
he can see?
3) On a similar note, say I have a beautiful colour, say magenta in a sky, and want to maximise it, I can only take it so far on my
rgb monitor, even though I'm working in adobe rgb - but does this mean that when I print this using an rgb printer, or someone views
it with a wide gamut monitor, that the colour magically expand / become more saturated/brighter?
4) If I edit adobe rgb on my imac srgb monitor, will the monitor then limit the output to what the screen can handle (srgb), so maybe
adobe rgb would be a waste of time?
It's just that I keep reading the same old things, but can find nothing to say what happens when you edit in adobe rgb with an srg-limited
monitor and want to output to print / know how to handle the colours when you can't see what they are going to actually become.
Thanks for any advice, Roy Kaye

Not to be argumentative, but you stated:
twenty_one wrote:
Yes, it's true that you can only see those colors that are contained within sRGB on that monitor. Or more precise - those that are within the monitor's native gamut, which is pretty close to sRGB.
I simply pointed out that is an inaccurate statement ... in fact, the gamut that can be achieved by recent models of iMacs (all models since 2011 and the 24" and 27" models since 2008), excede the sRGB gamut considerably.
To prove my point, shoot a RAW image with a camera setting of Adobe RGB ... open in Ps using ACR with a working space of Adobe RGB ... then once opened in PS, convert to sRGB ... by your standard, one should not see any change in color rendering because the monitor is incapable of displaying Adobe RGB ... I think you'll find there will be a considerable difference in color with the change in color profile from aRGB to sRGB on a great many images ...

HELP with sRGB in Photoshop Color Management Winows Vista

Greetings beautiful Windows people!
I am stumped with a Windows Vista problem — it is not displaying sRGB properly.
I posted bigger files here if this is easier to follow
http://www.gballard.net/windows_srgb/
But here goes:
First, my main question is HOW Windows Vista deals with sRGB because I am seeing inconsistant sRGB color on a client's workflow.
The first clue is:
How Photoshop is displaying Tagged sRGB on the two machines:
The original sRGB tagged file opens as above on my Mac.
Note: In the lower screen shots, Firefox has color-management enabled — and Photoshop's Working RGB is set to sRGB (it is using the sRGB embedded profile).
In the above Windows screenshot — Photoshop and Firefox look yellow — Explorer displays TAGGED sRGB correct — FireFox incorrectly matches Photoshop.
In the above Windows screenshot — Photoshop looks yellow — Explorer 8 and Firefox display UNTAGGED sRGB correct.
BECAUSE THIS IS CONTRARY TO THE THEORY, I suspected a bad profile so we loaded sRGB as the Monitor profile in the Windows Color Management setting.
Setting Windows Vista> Control Panel> Color Management: to sRGB fixed the problem (above, Photoshop is displaying the file correctly now, and sRGB is behaving as expected in both managed and unmanaged Web browsers).
However, I am clueless about two things:
Is Vista's "Color Management" Control Panel setting its Monitor RGB, or
Is Vista's "Color Management" Control Panel setting a DEFAULT RGB for the system?
I suspect the client has a bad hardware puck and/or buggy profiling package that needs an update because it appears to be even causing Photoshop to display sRGB improperly using the custom profile (and this is happening on eight of the client's Windows boxes).
He is using a glossy screen on the laptop I saw if his package can't handle it).
Can someone please clue me here as to what's going on (and how Vista should be set up to display sRGB consistantly in Photoshop and WEB BROWSERS)?

Thank you Chris,
When I did windows update I must have checked to download new display drivers I'm using (Dell with Dell Screens). It was loaded into the color settings as a profile, I hit delete and now all is well.

Photoshop Elements 16 bit/ProPhoto RGB ?

At this point in time I don't believe PSE10 or indeed 11 supports 16 bit working or ProPhoto RGB. This is an issue when transferring images from Lightroom for editing in Layers etc. I currently use Photoshop CC for this purpose, which is great but to be honest complete overkill for my purposes. PSE would be absolutley spot in if it could handle editing in 16 bit and/or ProPhoto RGB.
Can anyone shed any light on future releases of PSE and if/when this functionality will be included.
I know these facilities aren't there at the moment.
Thanks.

16 bits : PSE10 and PSE11 support 16 bits, except for layers and local tools.
Both can handle native Prophoto files. Just try it with Prophoto files from Lightroom. You are limited to sRGB or aRGB if you are working from your camera's raws or jpegs directly in PSE, but since you have Lightroom, you don't miss anything.
But the real answer is that advanced Elements users without LR do use the ACR module, which works in 16 bits and Prophoto (from raws or jpegs). Nearly all adjustments where 16 bits is important to avoid posterization can be done in ACR. Anyway all your output devices (display or printer) will require 8 bits and sRGB or aRGB.

Softproofing to sRGB and aRGB clips the darkest tones into pure black

When I am going through RAW files from my Canon cameras (1Ds MkIII and 6D) I edit them in the develop module and then convert to aRGB or sRGB depending on the output media. They look good in aRGB and sRGB too when I take into account the limitations of sRGB.
---> However, if I try the softproof to aRGB or sRGB the resulting proof crushes dark tones into solid black. Why is this when the actual conversions are way better? The actual conversions look good in both LR and PS CS5.
I have also noticed that when I upload images to my online galleries and view them with Firefox (latest version and color management enabled for all rendered graphics) they appear darker in the darkest tones than what they appear in LR. What gives?
I would really appreciate all advice!
Further info:
I am using LR 5.3, no updates suggested by the software
Windows 8.1 clean install
The computer is a new one, fast processor, 32 gigs ram etc.
Eizo CX270 hardware calibrated (16-bit internal LUT) with the Spyder 4 in ColorNavigator 6 software.
The issue has always been like this

Thanks a million Andrew! I was about to go crazy with the soft proof feature. I'll just forget it and let the conversion take its course. Prints in good print quality magazines have been spot on, which is the most important thing.
The browser test you suggested above was a success. I have tried it before and my issue with the darkest tones in the browser remains the same whether I enable v4 profiles or not. I think the Eizo Color Navigator produces v2 profiles but I am not sure. Just checked and it says under profile policy that the version is 2.2, tone curve is LUT and that "Reflect black level: yes".
The difference between the LR and the browser is relatively small but clear. I even made a little test pattern to see it better:
I hope it displays OK and has the tag still embedded. In lightroom I can see all the steps. When I view the same pic on my website, I can only barely see the difference between 4 and 6:
http://jari.pic.fi/kuvat/dpreview/FF_rendering_test/Black_level_final_sRGB_TAGGED.jpg
This has left me puzzled for a long time. Thanks for any further ideas!
ps. I too have noticed that only the develop module is accurate along with opening the image in Photoshop. The preview can be horrendous and the Bridge preview can be a mess too. Best seen with gradients posterizing.
pps: here's another link to the test pattern if the one above is not working for you: http://jari.pic.fi/kuvat/dpreview/FF_rendering_test/Black_level_final_sRGB_TAGGED.jpg/_ful l.jpg

Color error message when opening a photoshop file in Illustrator

I have a photo of the airport, with blue sky etc. I would like to make it all one color as a background image. I want the background of the photo to be light orange wit the building to be darker orange. Is there a way to do that in Illustrator? To try out different colors foreground and background or do I have to do it in Photoshop? How do I fill all the colors in the photo to just the two colors? This photo is untouched.
I also have a photo that has photoshop effects. When I open it in Illustrator I get an error message. It says "the document's embedded color profile does not match the current CMYK working space. The current CMYK color management policy is to discard profiels that do not match the working space.
I have the start of a web page in my working space. With this photo I think I am opening it in a separate page but it won't let me. I probably will use the untouched photo but I'm curious why its giving me the message. My workspace should be in RGB web safe colors. Is that why it won't let me open the CMYK photoshop file? I guess it has non-web safe colors but my thought was to change it to all web safe colors but maybe that is way too hard in Illustrator?
thankx,

You can color a grayscale tiff in Illustrator by simply selecting it then selecting a color you want.
I would think if these are two spot colors and you really want two different oranges you would want to clip the building either in
Photoshop or Illustrator and place it on top of one another.
I would normally say do a duo tone but that would mix the two colors.
So this is how i would go about it in Illustrator
1. Import the image as a grayscale tiff or import it and convert it to a grayscale by going to Edit>Edit Colors>Convert to Grayscale
2. then select the background color.
3. then copy the image and paste in front Command C and then Command F and select the darker orange color
4. with the pen tool create an a path that is the shape of the building exactly. Make sure it is a closed path.
5. then select the path and the top image the one you paste in front.
6. then go to Object>Clipping Path>Make
7 I would then group the two
with this method you have to good with the pen tool, but that is true of Illustrator in general.
now with the CMYK image it is allowing you to place it but is simply warning you of the conversion taking place.
What you should do is select in your Photoshop and Illustrator color settings to sRGB since this is probably the space you want.
and convert the CMYK into a RGB file which is what you should have done in the first place.
So open it i Photoshop convert to sRGB and replace it in Illustrator.
All should be fine.

Spyder4Pro in Photoshop CS5 - which proof setup?

Hello
I just ran Spyder4Pro calibration on my monitor for the first time. I am using a PC.
Monitor Specs:
Dell SP2309W
2048*1152 Pixel Resolution 23 LCD Display
VGA,DVI,HDMI connectivities
on NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460
Photoshop CS5 Extended
I have my monitor Brightness set to 90 and Contrast set to 79.
After I ran the calibration, I titled the profile June2012
Now when I open an image in Photoshop, for the most correct coloring, do I set the Proof Setup to:
-- Custom: sRGB Display Profile with display hardware configuration data derived from calibration
OR
-- Custom: June2012 (as of now, this is what images are opening up as automatically in Photoshop)
OR
-- Custom: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
OR
-- Custom: Document Profile - sRGB IEC61966-2.1
(Or another option?)
And then if I want to preview how it will be viewed online when I save my photo for web use, which profile can I preview it in?
THANKS!!

"Then the only time I will change it is when I want to preview it for a specific printer's profile I need to use. Correct?"
Pretty much, and even then, it's you really need to see a few actual prints so you get an idea of how accurate the soft proofing is or isn't. It depends on both the profile and the media.
"So as of now, this is what I'm keeping it at...
Photoshop-->Edit-->Color Settings
It is set to: sRGB IEC61966-2.1"
A good place to start
"When I open an individual file, I go to
View --> ProofSetup
It is set to Internet Standard RGB (sRGB)"
Well, if your file is already IN sRGB, it's kinda redundant to use Proof Setup as you're already seeing your file as it's going to be - that being sRGB. You only need to use Proof Setup when you're going to print your file, and even then, you often don't really have to use it. Honestly, it sounds like someone told you you needed to use this all the time or the world would come to an end. Just have fun working in Photoshop and don't worry about it unless you come across a problems down the line.
Is that OK now?

Monitor-Farbraum (Photoshop 6.0)

Ich erforsche gerade das Thema Farbmanagement. Meinen TFT-Monitor habe ich auf der Grundlage eines Hersteller-Farbprofils mit Adobe Gamma kalibriert.
Da der Adobe Gamma Loader in der Autostart-Gruppe liegt, war ich der Meinung, diese Kalibrierung gelte nun fürs komplette System, also nicht nur in Photoshop.
Wenn ich nun in Photoshop als Arbeitsfarbraum "sRGB - IEC61966-2.1" wähle, weichen die Farben deutlich von dem ab, was andere Programme (bzw. Photoshop mit "Farbmanagement aus") anzeigen.
Welche Farbanzeige ist nun die richtige? Und falls die Anzeige in Photoshop stimmt: Wozu war dann die allgemeine Monitorkalibrierung gut, die ja nicht nur ein Monitorprofil erstellt, sondern die ganze Anzeige verändert hat?

Vielleicht war meine Frage unglücklich formuliert. Ich versuche es neu:
Wenn Adobe Gamma dazu dient, ein Monitorprofil zu erstellen (auf dessen Basis Photoshop Farbräume richtig umrechnet), warum ändert sich dann bereits beim Start von Adobe Gamma die Bildschirmdarstellung und innerhalb von Photoshop erneut (bei gewähltem sRGB-Arbeitsfarbraum)? Es würde doch genügen, entweder beim Systemstart die gesamte Monitordarstellung auf sRGB zu trimmen, oder die Monitordarstellung zu belassen und erst innerhalb von Photoshop anhand des ICC-Profils zu konvertieren. Warum wird zweimal die Darstellung geändert?
Oder, noch einfacher gefragt:
Was passiert durch Adobe Gamma beim Systemstart, und welche Rolle spielt Adobe Gamma innerhalb von Photoshop?

IWeb won't publish pictures in sRGB

Hi all,
Got iWeb 09 and running it on latest OS on MacBook Pro. Here is the problem - no mater what options i choose - it publishes pictures in some other profile other than sRGB. The problem is that when viewed in anything other than Safari - pictures look terrible (bleak, dull and lifeless).
Here is how the workflow goes:
1 - Prep images in Photoshop (all in sRGB)
2 - Save them in sRGB
3 - Import pictures into iPhoto
4 - When building gallery and adding pictures in iWeb, add images form Media Selector.
5 - Publish to local folder
6 - check images - dull, lifeless and in wrong color profile.
I've also tried to add pictures by dragging them from Finder into the iWeb - same result.
Tried turning on/off web optimization in iWeb and iPhoto, no change.
Please help

Lightroom - sRGB on Web

Yes, another color mismatch question.
I work on LR 2.3 on Windows. My understanding is that it operates in the Prophoto colorspace. When I export to sRGB and view them in the Windows Jpeg viewer, the skin tones turn too red. Uploads to photosharing sites like Smugmug yield the same results.
Oddly, if I open the LR file in Photoshop, using the sRGB colorspace, the resulting output looks pretty much the same as the original LR image.
I understand colorspace issues, but I'm a bit frustrated that I cannot get my fleshtones to come out right on the Web.
I'm using Windows, Firefox, a calibrated monitor, etc.
What can I do to make things right?

Please note that most browsers do NOT support ICC profiles in the JPG file.
Firefox can support it if you enable it.
IE does not support it and Seamonkey 1.x also does not support profiles in images which leads to color differences.
This link here will show you if you browser supports ICC profies or not

External Editor settings don't move to photoshop

In Lightroom 3.3 I have set my Additional External Editor to Photoshop.exe, TIFF, sRGB, 8 bits, 72 resolution. When I choose Edit in and choose this preset, the photo shows up in photoshop as 16 bit pro photo, which are my first settings.
I can't work out what I am doing wrong. Why aren't the settings sRGB 8 bits?

Thanks for that Charlie. I have the same problem with jpegs and tifs. I reset all the lightroom defaults, but still have the problem. Are you working with 64 bit PS5 and LR3.3?
I haven't made any adjustments to my photos in LR, just in case that had anything to do with it. Everytime I select to edit in Additional External Editor, whether left as Custom or saved as a preset, when the Edit box comes up I need to change the Copy File Options they then remain the default options whether I select to edit in - "Adobe Photoshop PS5" or the Additional External Editor Option. The only difference being that once I change the Copy File Options, the 1st - Edit in - Option (Adobe Photoshop PS5" now takes on the new options I set in the Copy File Options. The only way I can now be sure of the file properties I want to export to Photoshop is to always select the second Edit in Option and then set the Copy File Options. In other words, no matter what I set in the preferences the file will always go to the external editor with the last settings I used in the Copy File Options.
Hope you can follow me. If you are using the same programs as I am then I am doing something wrong. Otherwise it must be a bug.
BTW I just realized that I don't have the latest updates installed for PS5. Thought I did, sorry about that. I will install the updates and let you know if that fixes my little problem.

Edit with Photoshop - Output to PS CS3 always Adobe RGB???

I'm having trouble understanding why every photo I export from Aperture 2.1 to edit in Photoshop CS3 is exported to Photoshop in the Adobe RGB color space.
My Nikon D3 is setup to record as sRGB, which I understand does not matter (e.g. Aperture sees only RAW data, and setting the camera to record aRGB vs sRGB RAW (NEF) makes no difference to Aperture.
Is there any way to set A2 to only export to Photoshop in the sRGB colorspace?
I have tried setting it to export files in PSD and PSD 16 bit mode, but not TIFF.
Any hints on this? It's really confounding.

Not sure that is correct. If your monitor is properly set, you will see a slight difference between different color profiles.

Yes, but PS only seems to manage one screen, the one that is being used to host the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In my case, that means that the photo doesn't look the same across the two screens, as it does in aperture. (and even that isn't perfect, but I use an HP 30" and a Wacom 20" Cintiq so there's only so much my eyeOne can seem to manage.)
So your actual problem is with PS/eyeOne, and not much to do with Aperture? I know I'm putting words in your mouth, but it sounds like you're asking for options in Aperture because of bugs in other apps, not for the sake of the feature itself. That said, enough people ask for the ability to set the working space for external editors that I think it should be added anyway.

Color - sRGB washing out in Windows apps

Hello,
I'm having a color management issue. I use CS3 and the Spyder2Express color calibration system. I presently have my system (Windows) set to the Spyder2Express profile found under the display properties. I have Photoshop set to sRGB under edit-color settings. I am for some reason suddenly (in the past few days) having big issues with editing the photo in Photoshop to look as I want, then it experiencing a large color shift when viewed in any Windows application or uploaded to the web (IE7). Colors look very dull and washed out compared to Photoshop.
From my experience, the opposite has been true if working in Adobe RGB and failing to save to sRGB before uploading the image to the web - the images wash out. So, why are my images washing out if working in sRGB as my Photoshop color space to begin with? Any Photoshop + windows experts combined that can help? I am pulling my hair out. I need to upload photos to my blog (I am a photographer) and they look super dull compared to how they view in Photoshop! Thanks in advance for your help.

My monitor calibration is just fine. I was saying that because similar
problems are almost always due to bad monitor profiles. If you calibrate
regularly using hardware calibration then you're probably fine. Many people
use canned profiles from monitor manufacturers however and lightroom is
highly sensitive to those and shows messed up color depending on the
source. In this case however, since the restart fixed it it was likely a
bad preview image. I have seen before that LR sometimes is lazy in
refreshing those and can show you strange results that only get cleared up
by forcing a preview refresh.
Last your top screenshot DOES show that you are pushing the red in that
dress out of the monitor gamut. You can check this in the soft proof in LR
4 by turning on the monitor gamut warning. If you blow the color out of the
monitor gamut the preview is no going to be accurate no matter how good
your calibration. Just a cautionary warning.

Need help getting sRGB settings working right.

After reading lots of input from all kinds of sources I decided for my purposes it is best to set my Photoshop CS4 to sRGB. The problem I'm having is that quite often if I drag and drop an image as a new layer on another image I get a warning asking me if I'm sure I "want to convert colors to a destination document with a color profile that does not match the current RGB working space?" It then goes on to tell me that my source is sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and that my destination is Adobe RGB (1998) and that the working is sRGB IEC61966-2.1. Since I have set my Photoshop under Edit>Color Settings to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and I have my camera's color setting at sRGB I'm wondering why the window is telling me that my destination is Adobe RGB (1998). I initially shoot in RAW and then open my photos in Camera Raw in Bridge and when I'm done with whatever changes I want to make there I simply "Open Image" which, of course, opens it in CS4 where the color setting, again, is sRGB. What else do I need to change to get everything operating under color setting sRGB?
Thanks for any help you can give.

The camera color setting only applies to jpegs that you shoot.
If you are shooting in RAW then your image doesn't have a color space applied to it until you open it in Photoshop.
At the bottom of your Camera Raw window is a blue hot link. Click on this to open the Workflow Options.
There you can change the Color Space, Bit Depth. Size and Resolution that your image will open as in Photoshop.
These settings in ACR will override any settings you have for your default color space in Photoshop

About SRGB

Question for you. I'm really trying hard to develop a great color work flow. I realized after my new discovery I didn't to proof my photoshop files under Blurb's cmyk profile any longer. I went under Proofing and selected the calibration I have done with my X-rite colormunki. I realize under custom is the whole array of choices from the default Apple RGB to selecting the calibration colormunkit profile I do every two weeks with my X-Rite Colormunki. I just realized there are other settings I can select as well. One being the legacy Macintosh RGB Gamma 1.8. then Internet Standard RGB (SRGB), and finally Monitor RGB. the second of first choice
This question has gotten more intense for me. Since I'm working in Photoshop on files for my website should I set the monitor to Internet Standard RGB (sRGB) when I'm color correcting and adjusting my files for the web. Also should I go under custom and select the X-Rite Colormunki profile? Also since I'm going to only use SRGB files for Blurb books and not use Blurb's Icc profile any longer. Should I also select the Internet Standard RGB (sRGB) as for my monitor while adjusting my files for Blurb books or leave it as one of the other two legacy Macintosh RGB Gamma 1.8 etc?
Help
Now again I'm wondering when I'm printing files for my Epson printers should I select legacy Macintosh RGB Gamma 1.8 or monitor RGB. Also should I choice the X-rite calibrated profile. I know when I'm in the Epson driver I go and select the printer profile for the printing paper I will be using.

hi,
your hardware-profiled (device-specific) monitor profile should always be highlighted in System Preferences> Displays> Color: Display Profile — never set your monitor profile to device-independent profiles like sRGB, AdobeRGB
forget anything to do with 1.8 Mac legacy gamma...profile your monitor to something like 6000 kelvin, D60, 2.2 gamma, luminance 120 cdm2
for the Web, always Edit> Convert to sRGB (if not already there), then File> Save for Web & Devices — include the sRGB ICC profile or not (i usually strip the profile for the Web)
Photoshop already displays sRGB 'accurately' so i wouldn't get too caught up in second guessing that for Web publishing
here is some reading
basic theory (Photoshop color management)
save for web (see profiles in action)
5 simple steps to profile enlightenment (assign or convert profiles)
Photoshop Manages Colors print workflow (Source> Print Profile)
when you come back, i will recommend you only discuss one point at a time and include screenshots...
