Annoying isn't it! I recorded some convert to CMYK actions/droplets
and I wanted to do one for SWOP and another for Euroscale, but found
that they both convert to the working CMYK space rather than the
specified space. Which means every so often I forget to switch my
working space when doing US pix and end up with Euroscale, or is
there a way around ?

Hello everyone, new to the list.

I don't know if I'm just piling up another email. Haven't read the full thread of this since I just got in.

I'm using Photoshop 7, maybe this is not the same in CS.

Tim, from your email it looks as if you were selecting the profile from Image->Assign Profile... I don't know why you say photoshop is still saving the image as your current colour space.

Make sure you have the Ask when opening tick in your Colour Settings. Photoshop might be converting it to the current space each time you open the image.

I know you probably already know all this, but sometimes one forgets to check some stupid setting and everything goes wrong.

I'm checking the action right now and it works fine. I'm saving a Euroscale uncoated CMYK file while my current working space is E. Coated.

Sorry if this is a CS issue. Hope it helps.

Lucas

I've adopted this as the only way I will handle conversions, as I work
on a couple of different machines and often change the working space
setups depending on the job. Rather than try to remember what the
working space is at any given time, I just always use the "Image >>
Mode >> Convert to Profile" and choose the profile I want to convert
to, and then there's never any confusion.
