Rob Ingram Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #1 · Photoshop CS3 I need some help. I have always relied on Aperture to edit and export my photos for printing and web presentation. However, due to an increase in business, I no longer shoot in jpeg format, but I shoot in RAW and love the versatility given to me by Photoshop CS3, especially the Camersa RAW editing. But I have a HUGE problem. My basic workflow consists of shooting the images in RAW, uploading them to Adobe Bridge on my MacBook Pro, batch editing them in RAW, processing the images (which converts them to jpeg High (12) Quality), spot correcting and skin toning the ones that need it, then uploading them to my website (which allows for High-Res downloads. My problem is this. The color and saturation of the jpeg file does not reflect the adjustments I made in Camera RAW. Basically, the exported jpeg image looks like a 25% desaturated version of the image I edited and processed in Camera Raw. Like I said, I am new to Photoshop and really need to know why this might be happening. Thanks for any assistance you can give. Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 05, 2007 at 03:49 AM

Rob Ingram Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #3 · Photoshop CS3 Setting is already on sRGB. When I click on Color Settings under "Edit" in the PhotoShop Toolbar, here is where the settings are: Under "Working Spaces": RGB Setting: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 CMYK Setting: US Web Coated (SWOP) v2 Gray Setting: Dot Gain 20% Spot Setting: Dot Gain 20% Under "Color Management Policies" RGB: Preserve Embedded Profiles CMYK: Preserve Embedded Profiles Gray: Preserve Embedded Profiles Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 05, 2007 at 03:44 PM

Eyeball Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #4 · Photoshop CS3 Check the colorspace settings in Camera Raw (the thing that looks like a hyperlink at the bottom of the Camera Raw screen. Highly likely that is set to AdobeRGB or ProPhoto. Since you have your color management policies set to "Preserve Embedded Profiles", CS3 is most likely using AdobeRGB or ProPhoto as its working space even though you have sRGB set as the normal working space. If you put the check marks on the prompt options, CS3 will always prompt you for what to do when an incoming file either does not have an embedded profile or if its embedded profile is not the same as what you have specified as the standard working space. I use that so I can change my output colorspace from Camera Raw and then adapt CS3 on the fly. Hope that made sense. Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 05, 2007 at 04:03 PM

Rob Ingram Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #5 · Photoshop CS3 You are 100% correct. The Camera RAW setting was set to Adobe 1998. I changed it to sRGB. Thank you so much. I am going to see if this helps. One more question: Should I uncheck the "Preserve Embedded Profiles" box? One more: When you refer to "prompt options", do you mean the prompts that show up in the Adobe Photo downloader when I put the memory card in my computer? If not, where do I go to change the prompt options? I really appreciate your help. Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 06, 2007 at 03:44 AM

One more: When you refer to "prompt options", do you mean the prompts that show up in the Adobe Photo downloader when I put the memory card in my computer? If not, where do I go to change the prompt options? If you work mainly in sRGB, then it's convenient to have PS convert all files to your working space. But in any case, if you check these prompts, you'll always know what PS is doing when you open an image. Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 06, 2007 at 03:50 AM

Rob Ingram Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #7 · Photoshop CS3 Changing it now. This is exactly the response I have needed. Have a great evening. And again, thank you very much. You have been a huge help. Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 06, 2007 at 03:53 AM

rprouty Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #8 · Photoshop CS3 In the Working Spaces why in the CMYK block is U.S. Web Coated the selection? What does it do? Thanks Rod Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 07, 2007 at 11:35 PM

aaron liu Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #9 · Photoshop CS3 BTW,I don't think your workflow is good though. If I am not mistaken, you probably edit JPEG8bit sRGB in photosho for retouchment? that's horrible way to process the image IMO. You should convert RAW to TIFF16 ProPhotoRGB. do any further retouchment in photoshop with TIFF16 ProPhotoRGB instead of JPEG8. Edited on Dec 09, 2007 at 01:21 PM Dec 08, 2007 at 07:15 PM

Thanks Rod It's one of most comon CMYK working spaces. If you're sending to a 4 color (CMYK) printer as in a magazine publisher, they will probably want it in that format. If you're either printing yourself, or sending to anyone that uses Canon, Epson, HP, etc. prnters you want your mode left in RGB work spaces such as sRGB (limited, sort of ugly), aRGB (an improvement, but outdated), or profoto (a larger more comprehensive work space, but may exceed your printer gamut so check before printing).
