Re: InDesign and "Preserve CMYK"
Re: InDesign and "Preserve CMYK"
Although wouldn't it make sense to be able to review that in
conjunction with the Links pallet?
Ah! I've been begging Adobe to create a "Profile" palette. But I'm
afraid
they see this as copycatting Quark's Profile palette.
Is that what you had in mind?
Not what I had in mind. I'm just talking about adding information to
the Links pallet or invoking a dialog that lists all linked items
with their color spaces and associated profiles.
The output/conversion controls should have:
1) settings for color handling of RGB, CMYK, Grayscale, and Lab -
separately
Sort of repeating the whole color setting dialog box in the print
dialog?
Kind of. The color settings dialog is great for content creation. I
have to focus on output.
BTW, I think we'll NEVER see the day we see grayscale color
management in
InDesign, or, as they say, until the cow comes home :(
It HAS TO happen. This is the single biggest obstacle in InDesign's
color management architecture.
d) option to NOT color manage - so we could avoid transforming black
and grayscale items
Globally? Or color space by color space?
Color space by color space. So, you could, for example, control the
conversion of RGB and Lab elements, and leave CMYK and Grayscale alone.
3) the option to override embedded profiles AND rendering intents
Those options are already in there but I guess you want to have
them in the
Print dialog.
Those options are only available for raster and native InDesign
elements. Illustrator stuff is a whole other matter. And I'm not
necessarily talking about assigning a different rendering intent to
vector elements - Illustrator elements have a rendering intent
embedded; InDesign honors that rendering intent - not the one you've
specified. I want to be able to override that behavior.
(R=G=B) = K would be nice, too.
You're getting into Device Linking now. I think Adobe will bring
DVL support
in Photoshop first, then deploy it to the other CreativeSuite apps.
No, I'm not. I'm talking about a simple switch. Lots of color
management tools for PDF have this option.
