Re: When black is white (or blue is black) was: CMYK spaces used for document creation

We were in the dying stages of a thread that has pretty conclusively shown that Adobe's choices of colour space in out of the box copies of Photoshop have become "standards" in the print industry.

Hogwash. I have dozens of color space options installed in Photoshop (and each version is different). So ALL are standards?


On the subject of standards I find it interesting that Adobe's ProPhotoRGB is really Eastman Kodak's ROMM RGB renamed.

Its NOT Adobe’s ProPhoto RGB and never was. Its always been a Kodak designed color space.


Did Adobe bring anything to that working space party or just rename it so that it sounded more like they created it?

No.

You make it sound so easy!

It is for most of us!

The point of my original post -- the bit that you snipped -- was that this "conversion" is problematic and that you can achieve much more impressive results by doing this outside of Photoshop.

Using ICC profiles was in your first (and several other posts). Then you decide later you’ll define the conversion with a device link, then you decide you’ll not also try the device link in Photoshop.
