To save your custom proof setup as a preset proof setup, click Save. To ensure that the
new preset appears in the View > Proof Setup menu, save the preset in the Program Files/
Common Files/Adobe/Color/Proofing folder (Windows), System Folder/Application
Support/Adobe/Color/Proofing folder (Mac OS 9.x), or Library/Application Support/
Adobe/Color/Proofing folder (Mac OS X).
Changing the color profile of a document
In some cases you may want to convert a document’s colors to a different color profile, tag
a document with a different color profile without making color conversions, or remove the
profile from a document altogether. For example, you may want to prepare the document
for a different output destination, or you may want to correct a policy behavior that you
no longer want implemented on the document. The Assign Profile and Convert to Profile
commands are recommended only for advanced users.
When using the Assign Profile command, you may see a shift in color appearance as color
numbers are mapped directly to the new profile space. Convert Profile, however, shifts
color numbers before mapping them to the new profile space, in an effort to preserve the
original color appearances.
To reassign or discard the profile of a document:
1
Choose Image > Mode > Assign Profile.
2
Select one of the following:
•
Don’t Color Manage This Document to remove the profile from a tagged document.
Select this option only if you are sure that you want the document to become
untagged.
•
Working
color mode: working space
to tag the document with the current working space
profile.
•
Profile to reassign a different profile to a tagged document. Choose the desired profile
from the menu. Photoshop tags the document with the new profile without converting
colors to the profile space. This may dramatically change the appearance of the colors
as displayed on your monitor.
3
To preview the effects of the new profile assignment in the document, select Preview.
To convert colors in a document to another profile:
1
Choose Image > Mode > Convert to Profile.
2
Under Destination Space, choose the color profile to which you want to convert the
document’s colors. The document will be converted to and tagged with this new profile.
3
Under Conversion Options, specify a color management engine, a rendering intent, and
black point and dither options. (See
“Customizing advanced color management settings”
on page 110
.)
4
To flatten all layers of the document onto a single layer upon conversion, select Flatten
Image.
5
To preview the effects of the conversion in the document, select Preview. This preview
becomes more accurate if you select Flatten Image.
