Hugh, Does it not depend on whether the client is expected to have photoshop with colour management on or not? If the final image is actually destined to be printed then the client can be sent an optimised screen version in sRGB or one that we have optimised without colout management on. That way we have a better idea how it will look to someone without it. If the client is expected to understand colour space etc then explain the criteria for looking at the image. I say it's in our interest to make it look good on the simple set up the client has, we want them to come back don't we?
Nathan. Nathan Gaydhani - digital imaging & design -----Original Message----- Subject: [PRODIG] Colour balance in different programs I have recently had to fend off criticism from a client (not a designer) who received my photo via email. His email program showed the picture in a more favourable colour than his unset up version of photoshop on his uncalibrated monitor. My question is what is the best way to explain to people why the two programs should be so different in as quick and easy way as possible.
