Andrew, Can you explain what Adobe did that excluded Adobe 1998 as a profile when you choose Photoshop Manages Colors? i think this has been true since CS5. thanks in advance!

Re: Custom profiles not showing up in Photoshop's Print Dialog

Not sure what you mean. My document profile always shows up in the print dialog CS6, including AdobeRGB. It has never occurred to me to try to choose it as a printer profile. Is that what you're hoping to do?

Custom profiles not showing up in Photoshop's Print Dialog
by Scott Martin 23 May '16

23 May '16

Ever since Photoshop CS6 came out I’ve been struggling with an issue where some custom printer profiles don’t show up in Photoshop’s Print dialog. They show up in every other window that lists profiles and in every other Adobe application print dialog box. Photoshop’s print dialog box filtering has been leaving out some perfectly good printer profiles. I think I just figured it out - it’s the use of parenthesis (and possibility other funny characters) in the profile name. If I replace a parenthesis with an ‘x' profiles now show up in Photoshop's print dialog box regardless of where they are placed (with the exception of Adobe's 'Recommended' folder, which still seems problematic for other reasons). Darn! Like a lot of people who make custom profiles, I like to put information like the printer driver media setting in the name of the profile in parenthesis. These are supposed to be safe characters but Photoshop’s print dialog box is filtering them out. So “Epson 20000 Luster (PLPP260) 5-16.icc” won’t show up but “Epson 20000 Luster PLPP260 5-16.icc” will show up. However, simply renaming the file name won't help. It's the internal ASCII name that triggers it from being included in Photoshop's Print dialog. So one can either use the ColorSync Utility to rename this internal name, or generate a new profile with parenthesis. I’ve already pointed this out to Dave P so expect to see this fixed in a future version of PS. But in the meantime one can takeout parenthesis in the ASCII to get them to show up in PS CS6 through PSCC. Whew, this has been a big problem for how many years now? Can't believe it took us this long to figure it out. I hope this helps! Scott Martin www.on-sight.com

Hi, My name is Yusra Khan and I am currently a graphic design student. As of now, I was working on my project for press operations. Until, I came upon the topic of Digital Print Inkjet and I was searching on the web about it. However, I still cannot find what is the inkjet process; I mean how doesit work? How does the press of the inkjet run exactly? Thanks, Yusra Khan

Safari Mobile & Color Management
by Jeff Nova 06 May '16

06 May '16

Hi friends, I know that the latest mobile Safari on iOS devices now honors tagged images, but I can find no details about the color handling. I presume it is using a canned profile for the device, but is there a means to use a custom one? Do factory tolerances make it so a canned profile is effective? Is there any way to dictate the rendering intent policy, as we see in Firefox? Thank you!
