hi all
I am soo confused
we have just upgraded to Adobe CS3 and I am struggling with how to use my colour settings for cmyk.
please help!!!
we have been using Euroscale Coated v2 cmyk profile on all images and Indesign CS files (exporting to press PDFs with a leave unchanged option ticked under colour management).
this is the profile that was recommended by our printers (web and sheet-fed printing).
but now the new system seems not to included that profile.
(unless we run CS and CS3 simultaneously).
long story, but designers are running only CS3 and prepress people (like me) are running both while upgrade takes place.
designers running cs3 can't create files with the old profile so they've been creating them with the coated FOGRA 27 (ISO 12647-2:2004)
so when the file comes to me (I am running both versions of the software), I am placing Euroscale images into the documents and seeing a colour shift from my image in Photoshop.
what do I do?
must I switch my images to the same colour profile, or is there a way to tell InDesign to read the colour profile off the image?
Or better yet, can I load the old profile onto the machines running only CS3?
(I tried to do that but, even though I copied the profile file successfully, the CS3 programs wouldn't read the profile)
help! please!
