Photoshop: Preserve Embedded Profiles

2010-11-04 by actsmbs

Spyder 5 Elite, Windows 7 64 bit, Photoshop CS4 64 bit.

I am using my Spyder custom calibration for my RGB Working Space in my Photoshop CS4 Color Settings which makes my Settings: "Custom."

Every photo I open from my D90 in Adobe Bridge then brings up a profile mismatch warning. Do I want Adobe to convert each image to the monitor profile and then when I re-save for the client save as sRGB?

I want to leave "Profile Mismatch" "Ask When Opening" option on so I know what Photoshop is doing with color. However, I can not under "Color Management Policies" "RGB" select the option that says "Preserve Embedded Profiles." That option is greyed out. It is not greyed out if I use a standard RGB color profile.

When I have tried to allow PS to convert to the monitor profile and saved back as sRGB there is quite a noticable color difference.

Thanks for giving me a good workflow.
