Re: OT CS2 with 1280 & MIS UT2

2005-10-08 by Clayton Jones

Hello Barbara,

>the "printer" or "Photoshop" determine the colors?

It really depends on what workflow you're using and whether the image
is RGB or Grayscale, but one thing that is causing a lot of confusion
for users of previous versions who use the "Same As Source" printer
profile setting, in CS2 this no longer exists.  To get the same result
you must select "No Color Management".  When you do that the printer
profile picklist is disabled and it acts just like Same As Source in
previous versions.  If you want to set a specific printer profile that
is different than the image profile ("Document Profile" I think it's
called in that window), then choose "Let Photoshop Determine Colors",
and the printer profile picklist will be enabled.  I hope this helps.

Regards,
Clayton
