A
From the Edit menu, select
Assign Profile
to display the Assign Profile dialog box.
B
Check if the color space set when you took the photo has been recognized correctly.
If you select
Color Settings
from the Edit menu in Working RGB, the name of the working color
space set is displayed in the Color Settings dialog box that appears. If the color space set when you
took the photo and the working color space are the same, the
Working RGB
radio button is
checked. If the color space set when you took the photo and the working color space are different,
the
Profile
radio button is checked and the profile name is displayed. In either case, the color space
has been recognized correctly.
If the
Don't Color Manage This Document
radio button is selected, the color space will not be
recognized correctly, so please specify a color space. (This happens when you try to open or save
images in applications that do not support color management.) In this case, select the
Profile
radio
button and select
Adobe RGB (1998)
from the pull down menu if you took the photo in Adobe
RGB. If you took the photo in sRGB, select
sRGB IEC61966-2.1
from the pull down menu. If you do
not know what color space you used to take the photo, select
sRGB IEC61966-2.1
as this is used as
the standard color space by most camera makers.
C
Click
OK
to close the Assign Profile dialog box.
Note:
Every time you change from one color space to the next, with the exception of Lab, you also loose information.
