I recently had to reinstall CS4 and set my usual preference: convert embedded profiles to AdobeRGB.
When I opened images from my Canon dSLR which is set to raw/AdobeRGB I could not understand why I was getting the profile mismatch warning. I forgot that when you open images in the lovely ACR its default setting, for reasons known only to Adobe’s crack team of interface designers, is to convert images to sRGB. I cannot imagine anyone wanting to do that but that is the default setting on my brand new installation of CS4. These are the same Adobe designers that arbitrarily duplicate some tools in the desktop and the converter, have multiple tools that have different names that perform identical mathematic operations on the image data and document nothing so that multiple experts give definitive and diametrically opposite explanations of how the thing works.
I would normally compare Adobe interface design skill to Microsoft’s, actually Microsoft is showing some With Win 7 and the Office Ribbon of Abomination, however after using Itunes I would have to award the worst interface design in history award to Apple.
