I am looking for an easy way to save files to be viewed on the web. I know there are tons of features for doing this that should make it easy. The problem is that no matter what I do the colors never match up acceptably.
In CS1 what I did was work in Adobe RGB 1998 and then save and close the project. I then changed the color profile to the monitor color space. Opening the file again I choose to convert colors. Now I flatten, adjust size etc.. and save. This worked great and the colors matched up almost perfect with just a slight desaturation to correct for.
If I do this exact procedure now (in CS2) I end up with drastically different hue and saturation upon converting to the monitor color space. I have no idea why. I have the color settings in Adobe Bridge set as well…is this overriding my changes in Photoshop somehow?
If I use the save for web command I end up with a pretty well desaturated image that is no good either.
All I want to do is work in North America Prepress 2 and be able to save a file that will look pretty much the same on the web.
I thought about just turning on proofing for monitor color space and adjusting back the saturation before saving…but then I’m left with no color profile (unless I don’t disable adobe rgb…which I would have to in order to prevent blinding oversaturation).
Thanks for any help/education!
