Re: Scanning workflow for BW- opening grayscales

2001-08-11 by antonisphoto@yahoo.com

Martin and Todd,

this is why it's a good idea to:

1- have PS ask you what to do when you open a file with an embedded profile 
that doesn't match the working profile (or no profile at all).

2- check to see what is the profile status of the image under 
image>mode>assign profile. (You also get a hint from the star (*) or  pound (#) 
following the color space in the title of the window).
