Technique: Color management

April 1, 2006

Many people who start out with Photoshop forget about color management. This prevents you from getting accurate colors on screen and print. If you want the easy way to a decent color management setup in Photoshop, just download the file below. After you have downloaded the file, go to Color Settings and load the setup.
This is a great start for most users who don’t know much about color management in Photoshop, and it also works with Illustrator and InDesign.

You’ll find the file here. Remember to right-klikk to download the file to your desktop.

    Hello: My graphfather migratesd from Trondheim to the US many years ago.

    There are not too manyh people with the name Otnes, so I assume that you might be a distant relative.

    My brother Fred is an artist. I am an engineer (gasp!).

    Hi Bob!

    In Norway there are 288 people with the name Otnes. There are two places called Otnes, one close to Trondheim and one in Rendalen. I’m from Rendalen, so the chanses we are related are pretty small… A lot of people moved to the states looking for a better life. My own grandfather went there as well. He made a lot of money and went back to Noray and bought a farm in Rendalen. This farm is still in our family today. Thanks for stopping by!
