In fact, it’s an excellent innovation for ensuring reliable consumer-level imaging. For all that it’s routinely maligned, sRGB isn’t bad. The oversight IMHO is that they lock down the RGB working space as sRGB. Photoshop and the rest of the applications in the Creative Suite are set to generate consistent color by default. That is, my screen and your screen and our printers and all the happy monitors round-and-round the world (god bless ‘em) convey similar colors. Photoshop’s Edit > Color Settings command locks down the RGB and CMYK definitions so that the telephone message you hear cognates properly and comes out of your mouth in something closely resembling the same form. Which means that the old game of telephone transforms into some horribly modernized version of AT&T’s freakishly unpredictable iPhone coverage. Every printer has its own brand of CMY(MYK)K color. The same thing happens when you print your images.

For example, have you ever walked into a modestly enabled tech store that sells 2 or so TVs-presumably playing a football game, cuz that’s what they’re always playing in this country-and noticed how the green field on one screen looks more yellow or blue on another? That’s because the signal contains a series of RGB codes and the TV translates them any which way it likes. The fact is, colors shift from one screen to the next. The steps are applicable to all recent versions of Photoshop, including CS3, CS4, and CS5.īut first, let me address why color settings are important: This post is devoted to walking you through the process of creating your own Best Workflow file and then applying it to the Creative Suite as a whole, if you own the Creative Suite. The podcast itself explains how they work, which is differently than dekeKeys CS4 and earlier.) (For you impatient ones, dekeKeys CS5 is similar to the dekeKeys II file that I posted as part of Martini Hour 57, In Which Deke Gives You Part of His Brain. I’ll post dekeKeys CS5 as a free download next week.

I explain how to make your own Best Workflow color settings today. I’ve received requests to distribute both. The color settings file goes by the name Best Workflow (because, I argue, that’s the resulting environment) the keyboard shortcuts are dekeKeys. All of my One-on-One products-whether videos or books-begin by encouraging you to adjust your Creative Suite color settings and load my custom keyboard shortcuts.
