Re: Problem with the Spyder's colour profile

2014-07-05 by tlbtlb@...

>> <dm2363@...> : when you save your image from Photoshop, there's a checkbox at the bottom of the Save dialog that asks whether or not to embed a color profile in it (and the profile that's specified there will be your RGB working space, so it'll say "sRGB" etc etc next to the checkbox. You should be checking that box when you
save it.

That's what I was getting at when I asked what the settings were for the "Save As" options--although I have CS6, I've never actually gotten around to installing it on my relatively new Win7/Pro/64bit system and I'm still using Photoshop 7 so I wasn't sure what the current options are within "Save As".

I suspect that although Lisamarie has said that she's not changed anything, that it could be that the "embed color profile" option is not checked/has become unchecked particularly as she said that images worked only in Lightroom look ok--I've never used Lightroom so I'm not sure of how color management is implemented.



>> As far as posting images on social media, they're then being viewed in a web browser. Some web browsers are color management aware; others aren't.

Again, that's also what I suspected might be the issue.
