Hey Mark, I was hoping you'd see my plea!
Ok, so I just had a thought - I do remember that I as working in ProPhoto RGB for a while there, but I definitely export to sRGB now. My monitor is also calibrated to sRGB. But it has a specific profile saved and I just exported using it too, and it was the same result. I just tried exports using sRGB, Prophoto RGB, Adobe RGB AND my own monitor profile and they are all the same - red/orange, and NOTHING like what I am looking at in LR3 or ACR (PS CS5)..... Sooooooooo frustrating! t.x. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Roberts Sent: Tuesday, 16 November 2010 11:22 AM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: Colour management gurus, I need your help!

What color space are you using when you export? It sounds as if you've got it set to something weird. For almost all exports you should set Color Space to "sRGB" in the Lightroom Export dialog. You should use other color spaces for your own inkjet printing or for sending files to high-end print services that can use (and specifically request) other color spaces. Other than that, go for sRGB. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
