Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hi Damien, hope you can help me. I have to give a tiff and i worked the photo in ps, in srgb. To convert to tiff i flattened the layers, i convert to cmyk and then save it to tiff and i unchek the the box of color option (i´m sorry i don´t know how is it in english i have my ps in spanish) , that gets the tiff better but it still changing me the colors when i save it to tiff , I see like a different saturation ... What i i am doing wrong? I attach my color profile and the jpg and the tiff, the color profile i´m working and the color option i uncheck if you can help i will appreciate it so much!

Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes, but that screenshot didn't look like Photoshop. What program is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Right. And that's your problem. Those free viewing programs that come with computers aren't colour-managed. They can't even show RGB images properly, let alone CMYK ones. ONLY view your images in Bridge. In other matters, it's VERY important to always leave this box checked: Never uncheck it, ever.

Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 f i leave that box checked the color is horrible, totally desaturate. In bridge i can still see a change in the saturation of the colors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) okkkkk, if i see it in bridge the colors are not so different althougt with the box cheked. But i see it horrible in all the other places. Shall i trust bridge an d send it? they are still not exactly i think...

Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Bridge and Photoshop should be completely identical. Please check again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes!!!!!! I cant believe how bad i saw it in other places! So color box checked, save to tiff. Perfect in Bridge! Thank youuuuuuuu! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Ok, good. But I'd like to talk about this a bit more, if I may. Can you tell me why you're converting to CMYK? And which CMYK profile you're converting to? Where are these photos being printed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 It´s for a packaging, my first time, they wanted a tiff. I never printed in tiff. Where do I look the cmyk profile? I go to mode and change to cmyk, then save it as tiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Oh gee, this is REALLY bad. http://www.damiensymonds.net/2011/05/please-be-wary-of-cmyk.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 I don´t understand the article, so if i know the photo will be printed in tiff I shall work on ProPhoto RGB or in rgb? What can i do now to save the greens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 I must do this changes? http://www.damiensymonds.net/art_newsprint.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 TIFF is fine, it's not the problem. (It indicates that your printers are old-fashioned and foolish, but it's not technically a problem.) The point of the article is that you can't just change the mode to CMYK. That's incredibly dangerous. I want to help you make sure your photo will print properly. Just now, Erica said: I must do this changes? http://www.damiensymonds.net/art_newsprint.html No, that's only for newspapers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes, that's the right place to change it. But I don't know if that's the right profile to choose. You need to ask the printer exactly which profile to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 ok! He must told me one of the name in here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes. Or, if it's not one of those names, he must email you the right profile to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
