<but the question did come to mind whether or not you embedded <the AdobeRGB profile when you sent the images to the client ... thinking <possibly, they opened the image with no profile defined, to which may have <assigned their preferred Mac color space (e.g., colormatch). This could <have resulted in what they saw(?) cheerios ... shAf :o)
Thanks for the comments shAf, The files I sent were imbedded with Adobe1998. I have read their submission guidelines which states just to use 1.8 gamma and RGB. >From what I now know from Thomas' reply that is not really a full requirement is it? Here is a snippet from their message: ------------------ <all your digital images are too light (burned - overlight) and too blue. I <hope you will understand what I'm telling you .... <our screen are all calibrated in color with our clients and printers and <laboratory. We calibrate them each month. so our screen colors are correct. <so you have to by a "sonde calibrator" (in french,I don't know the word in <english) it's a small thing you put on your screan and it will put the right <light and the right colors. so all you images will be correct and suitable <to be sold on our market. you screen must be calibrated GAMMA 1,8 with the <color temperature at 6500 ° Kelvin or D65 ------------------ As I stated, my monitor is calibrated. Is it possible that the "too blue" could also have anything to do with this colour space difference? What I don't understand is why, when they opened the files, they weren't presented with a "different colour space" warning and then simply apply their colour space instead of assuming that my monitor is up the creek and I haven't a clue as to what I'm doing? They have suggested they can "fix" my files for 4 euros each but I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt that they really don't know about colour spaces.
