Replace/manage color

I hope someone can help me.
I have a document with an imported logo. The logo has one color, supposed to be PMS 267-C. The document has two colors of text, PMS 267-C and black.
Can I convert process to spot in InDesign for the document so that it prints all non-black colors as PMS 267-C?
Thanks.

What other colour is/are there? It he PMS267-C Text a process colour?
If the logo is supposed to be PMS 267-C and Is not, you will have to adjust it in Illustrator {assuming it is a vector file.}
If the logo is a photo, that is a little more complicated.
If your 267-c in the Indesign text is different from the logo colour you cn delete the text colour and replace with the logo colour in the Swatch pallete.
However, you need to describe the colour definitions more for me to be more specific.

  • How Do I Mass Search and Replace Swatch Colors In Entire Indesign CS6 Document?

    I've jumped from CS4 to CS6 and its been a little while since, but just trying to refamiliarize myself with the many Features of Indesign CS6.
    Here's my issue: I have a really old CS4 document I've opened up and saved in CS6. I have to change all swatch colors throughout the document from pantone swatch 295 C to updated pantone swatch 293 C.
    Question, without my having to go through the entire document one object at a time looking for each object, HOW do i perform a Mass search and replace of Color swatch references from 295 C to 293C.
    I thought i could just click swatch properties and update the color... but No... that doesnt work as swatch properties is just grayed out
    I'm sure i've overlooked something but a refresher on how to mass find and replace color in a document would be great.
    Thanks and looking forward to hearing from someone.

    Thanks for the tips.... both seem like good options without my having to purchase a 3rd party software to accomplish this...
    I must admit... Because I've been stuck in Web Design and Motion Graphics for the past couple of years, when I re-opened my old print work from the CS4 days into CS6 it is obvious I have some catch up to do....
    I was almost embarrassed to admit I had forgotten the technique of Alias one color to another using Ink Manager... I had to look it up and found this helpful tutorial http://indesignsecrets.com/alias-one-color-swatch-to-another.php
    Thanks for both solutions....

  • Can I replace Pantone color books in InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop?

    These new Pantone + books are a pain in ...well... you understand.  In my years as a designer, I have just clicked on the correct book and color swatch, but now...
    I am using Windows 7 and the CS6 suite of products.  We have a company logo in which both main colors have dramatically changed with the new books.  I won't go into all of the tricks we've tried to be able to place it in new documents without the color changing.  I now think the only answer is to replace the color books as Adobe recommends.  I do have two questions, though.
    First, can I change the books in all of my products?  Adobe only gives instructions for Illustrator and InDesign, but I regularly have to change vendor logos into our company colors in photoshop, and I am finding the color in Photoshop isn't the same when I bring that logo into Illustrator, even though they have the same number.
    Second, what are the end results if I do change the books when I send a document to a printer?  We usually do our printing in-house, so I am wondering when we buy PMS 2955 if it will be what I see in the old books or the new books.  And what will an out-of-house printer be using?
    My main two concerns are (1) seeing the correct color on screen and (2) printing the correct color.  I don't really care how I get there, but I'd like it to be a permanent fix so I don't have to go in and manipulate swatches every time I add a logo to an item.
    Thanks for any help!
    BTW - haven't been to this new forum format and don't know if I am posting this in the right place.  If not, please help me find the correct location.  Thanks!

    HI this is good. But i have already seen this.
    Its very informative but somehow i felt it lacks the punch and fun factor in a video. I need something which captivates and entrances the audience, not a speech kind of a thing.

  • CS6: Can't switch off color management in the printerdriver when photoshop manages colors

    So this is weird: I'm using CS6 Extended and Lightroom 5 on a Windows 7 Pro machine, printing to an old Canon Pixma Ip5200R. When i print from Lightroom, i am using a special printer profile for the pixma and my photopaper, so color management is switched off in the printer driver. The photos print fine.
    Now when i print the same photo from CS6, it has a magenta color cast, so clearly something is wrong with the color management. Even though i am using the same printer, the same paper, the same printer profile and  - of course! - had set photoshop to manage the colors, and switched color managent off in the printer driver. The magenta cast could be an indication that the photo is double colormanaged.
    It took my quite a while to find out what happens, and this is really weird: When i re-checked the printer driver settings, i noticed that the color management settings did not stick. The canon printer driver offers the options "driver matching" "windows ICM" "none", e.g. having color management done by the printer driver or windows, or switch color management  off. So when i go to the PS print settings and set it to "photoshop manages colors", add the correct printer profile, i have to check the settings in the printer driver and make sure that color management is set to "none". I set it to "none" and click OK. Now everything should be configured correctly. But it's not - because when i re-check the print driver settings, i see color management is set to "diver matching". I can go to the print driver settings again and agian, but whenever i check, color management is set to "driver matching". This setting simply does not stick. No wonder i get a mangenta cast on my prints, the colors are doublemanaged by photoshop AND my printer driver.
    Now, this is getting weirder: Only the color management settings don't stick. I can change other settings like print quality and the stick.
    But - how do i get rid of this? The culprit seems to be photoshop, not the printer driver. If i print from lightroom, i can change the color management settings in the (very same) printer driver and they stick. When i set the photoshop print dialogue to "printer manages colors" i can change the color management settings in the (very same) printer driver - and they stick! So this looks as if photoshop stops me intentionally from using the correct printer driver settings, that is from switching off the printer drivers color management if it is set to manage colors.
    I have already resetted my personal photoshop preferences, but this changed nothing. What am i missing? What is going wrong? Your help is very appreciated.

    Hi all, Just to let you know that I finally solved my problem myself.
    Essentially what had occurred was that I had updated my Epson driver for my printer , but it hadn't installed, despite informing me that it had! To cut a long story short when I checked in System preferences the older driver for Leopard O/S was still the current driver. I proceeded to ask Epson support for assistance, bu despite their efforts I could not immediately resolve the problem. They were directing me to my Utilities program to remove all traces of my current driver from Printer Utility which did not exist. When I queried this they stated it was not always visible and I should proceed to the next step then install the new driver. Problem was they required me to access this invisible utility in order to complete this process, and yes before you ask I had informed them I was using an Intel Mac with Snow Leopard 10.6.2 O/S. Finally I ignored their advice and took the following steps:
    1. I opened System Preferences and double clicked the Printer & Fax icon.
    2. I highlighted my Epson R2400 Pinter and removed it by clicking the minus sign at the bottom of the Printers window.
    3. Next I did a search and deleted any old drivers for my R2400 that were on my system with the exception of the new Driver.
    4. I restarted my Mac Pro.
    5. I reinstalled my new printer driver which I had previously downloaded from Epson Support.
    6. I restarted my Mac Pro and found that the new driver had installed correctly and full functionality had been returned to the Print Features Dialogue box i.e I could now turn of color management and access advanced features to set the quality of printing using the full spec of the R2400.
    Hope this post will be helpful to others if they have a similar problem

  • Acrobat does not load "Edit\Preferences\Color Management\Color Setup" properly.

    When you convert a CMYK document with DeviceCMYK color space to profile, Acrobat X/XI Pro does not take the Working Space selected in "Edit\Preferences\Color Management\Color Setup" as the source space of DeviceCMYK object properly. But, after you change the "Settings" to any other setting (Like Jappan General Purpose 2) and confirm, and then change back to your wanted setting, thus, Acrobat will take the Working Space to convert color correctly. I tryed this many times, it reapears every time. It looks like that Acrobat does not load the "Color Setup" properly. Is there any one knows the reason of the problem? Is this a bug of Acrobat?

    Could this only be a problem with clean installs of CS3?

  • Managing Color with LR and the Canon Pixma Pro 9000 10.1.2.0 printer driver

    I would like help understanding how to manage color in LIghtroom with the Canon Pro 9000 10.1.2.0 printer driver. When I ask LR to manage color in the Printing Module Color Management Profile, it warns me to turn off the printer managing color. But I cannot find where to do this in the driver.
    The Color Options menu in the driver gives an additional choice for "Color Mode", but there are no choices here except "Standard", "Linear" or "Tone". The only Canon documentation I can find shows a choice to turn off printer management here, but this driver doesn't give me that choice.
    If I look in the driver's "Color Matching", I see only two choices: ColorSync or Vendor Matching. ColorSync brings up Canon profiles like "Pro9000 Fine Art Photo Rag", but selecting one of these gives a warning of unexpected results. This pushes me back to Vendor Matching. But is this turning off the printer driver and leaving it to Lightroom?
    Right now, I am getting the best results from choosing "Managed by Printer" in LR's Color Management Profile, and setting "Color Matching" in the Canon driver to "Vendor Matching". If I instead choose one of the Canon profiles in LR's Color Management Profile (and it tells me to turn off the printer managing, which I cannot do), then my prints have a slightly bluer color cast.
    Is there a way to turn off the printer managing color in this driver and turn this over to LR, or am I getting the best results possible with the printer managing color anyway?
    I am using a 2.4 GHz Intel iMac with OS 10.5.4, 2 gigs SDRAM, standard ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro video card. I downloaded the Canon printer driver from their website, so I assume this is the latest. there is another driver available at their website, but for a lower bit depth. Should I abandon the 10.1.2.0 for this other one? I work with Nikon D300 NEFs, and I assumed the higher bit depth printer driver will work better with these images.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Dear DYP: Unfortunately, those choices are not available in the 10.1.2.0 Canon Printer driver. There are only 2 radio buttons, ColorSync and Vendor Matching. ColorSync then provides a drop-down menu, with no choice for turning off the printer driver.
    But I think I found the answer. I found a deeply buried FAQ on the Canon site (no direct URL; sorry!) Here it says:
    "Issue: How do I disable the printer driver color correction when using the CUPS driver in Mac OS X 10.5.x?
    Solution: Change color management options for printing (Mac OS X 10.5.x)
    Change color management options for printing
    Open the document you wish to print.
    Click 'File' and then click 'Print.'
    Note: If the Print window contains only two pop-up menus, click the triangle beside the Printer pop-up menu for expanded options.
    Select 'Color Matching' from the Print Options pop-up menu.
    Select 'ColorSync' if you want the application you are using, and not the printer driver, to control the color management of the printed output.
    Note: If you are using Adobe Photoshop CS2 or CS3 and have selected 'Let Photoshop Determine Colors', the 'Color Matching' from the Print Options pop-up menu is automatically set to 'ColorSync.'
    Select 'Vendor Matching' if you want the printer driver to control the color management of the printed output."
    I tried it, and chose "Automatic" as a choice in ColorSync. The choices under "Color Options" are then greyed out, implying that the Canon driver is now turned off.
    The prints came out great, with no color cast, and a little brighter than the printer managed prints.
    So, Vendor Managed means printer manages, ColorSync means LR manages.
    Thanks, everyone, for keeping me going on tracking this down!

    Most of the image uses a gray color. I'd like everything colored with grey, to be black. How do I replace gray color w/ black?

    One way would be to select one object of the gray color, then choose, Select > Same Fill Color. This will select everything of that color. Click the black swatch to change them all at once.

  • How do I replace a color with another color?

    I'm not having any luck finding this.  Is there a simple way to replace a color (like a red shirt) with another color (green shirt)?  Somehow I'm not seeing this anywhere.  I know how to do it in Premiere Pro.

    You can use the Color board ("corrector"). Click on the Eye dropper icon and click and drag over the t-shirt (you'll see some feedback of what's being selected.) You can hold down the shift key and click/drag (slightly) on other spots to add more to the selection (or hold down the option key to subtract from the selection.) You can also use the Color Mask slider to add or subtract from the selection.
    Then click on the right arrow for the Correction and in the Color Adjustment, click and drag the Global control to change the color.

  • How to manage colors in RH8

    Morning all,
    RH 802 generating WebHelp.
    Is there one central location for managing colors in RH8?
    I've created some CBT colors and named them. Now I want to change the color, but keep the name, as the color I've chosen doesn't show up very well in the Project Manager pod.
    I realize I can create a new custom color, but would have to use a new name, which I'd like to avoid. It seems once a color is created and named, there's no facility for altering it.
    So, is there one central UI for managing colors in RH8? Or are they stored in a file somewhere I can edit directly? How about the ability to RENAME or DELETE a custom color?
    Thanks for your brainpower...

  • Can't set "printer manages colors" - CS5,Windows 7 64 bits

    When printing, if I select "Printer manages colors", and then go to the print settings ==> when exiting the print settings, Photoshop CS5 waits 1 or 2 seconds, and reverts to "Photoshop manages colors".
    This happens with all the printers connected to this 64 bits Windows7 machine : Epson Stylus Pro 3880, HP Photosmart 9180, and a small HP all-in-one.
    Windows, Photoshop, and the drivers are all up to date and fully patched.
    I am at my wits end to understand why this is happening.

    I am sorry I can not help, but I will wish you a speedy fix.  You could waste hundreds of dollars worth of ink by making duff prints with a 3880.   The Luminous Landscape suggests US$500 for a full set of cartridges!
    [EDIT]  I feel kind of bad about not saying anything construcive, so I'll add that one of the best printer info sites I know of is Vincent Oliver's www.photo-i.co.uk/
    It's a pitty Noel doesn't post anymore - he was the man for this sort of thing.

  • Printing from CS5, Photoshop Manages Colors

    I only do photo quality prints to Epson matte  a few times a year so I run test prints with various settings to get what I want. My granddaughters wanted some prints from a web site framed and my wife wanted  prints of an emailed photo of their old mountain cabin. I had to do some color manipulation of the cabin, but the web site images had been expertly processed and all I had to do was print properly. I experimented with the cabin image print settings. Epson changed the names of all their papers, so the Epson print profiles in the print dialog didn't match the name on the matte paper box. I deciphered that, but I wasn't happy with the result so I tried two of the other Epson profiles and hated it. There's quite a long list of profiles available, some specific, and some just conventional color spaces like sRGB, aRGB. For the heck of it I tried Pro Photo RGB as a printer to paper profile. The print of the cabinimage with an embedded aRGB profile was everything I could want. I did the web site sRGB images the samwe way and they were really nice.
    The puzzle is this: What does using Pro Photo RGB as an instruction to the printer cocerning what it is printing to thru Photoshop even mean? The printer has never heard of the colors possible in Pro Photo, and the source image is in sRGB ( verified by Photoshop). I can conceive that an RAW image should be rendered as aRGB for inkjet and that the inkjet has some blues that are outside the aRGB, but I can't understand telling an inkjet to use Pro Photo to print sRGB.
    Maybe gator soup knows what I'm trying to get at.
