ok -- no interest -- i never did mind having conversations with myself... Im going back to school looking for a few tutorials -- i recall sharpening can be applied in channels -- i think my general sharpening approach barely scratched the surface of bringing out the potential of this particular image this is what the original scene looked like -- when the backlight hit that leaf the magic happened...

I shot something over my head sharpening and wondering if I can post the original .nef here for free educational use -- royalty free perpetual licensing released in Public Domain) -- I think it may be interesting in a sharpening exercise sense. I can post it on a download link (inside a .zip) or how would I attach the original .nef here so you would have the original RAW file If this isn't permitted -- please delete here is a peek (I putzed around with it a bit) ---shot on Nikon D810, Nikkor 105MM 2.8 4912x7360 (very close) ---Sample opened in CS6, RAW, ProPhotoRGB, 16-bit ---viewed at 100percent on a 5K Retina screen running Mojave/CS6 I think it could be sharpened better

yes, you are on point (consistently) ... Photoshop colors and profiles I see crystal clear, it's logical and intuitive and simplistic, but maybe I just have more daily experience with it and Photoshop is certainly a lot less complicated than what Acrobat deals with maybe I'm just getting old ... I recently upgraded M$ Entourage 2008 to Outlook 2016 (Mac mail apps) wow it lost some critical features and got more unintuitive ... then there is the recent move I made from OS-X 10.6 to macOS 10.12 and 10.14 ... technology and commonsense certainly are not standing still for me

>>> I've been successfully exporting pdfs for print for about 20 years and it's never been so convoluted. amen to that, brother! I, too, have managed to squeak by with a degree of consistency in my closed work flows, but I see how a shop dealing with numerous 3rd party documents a day has an impossible task with all the ****** up (my edit) color coming in, the fact that a lot of them don't have a clue even how to deal with proper document only makes it worse

Is there a macOS (which version) that can't open Cs6 Illustrator 16.0.4 because of the Java error? in other words: What is the latest Apple OSX that can open iLL 16.0.4? it appears Mojave 10.14.5 will not allow iLL to open because it is impossible to make Terminal install the Deploy.bundle and 1.6.0.jdk files (it hits the Java error on an Erase, start-from-scratch 10.14 / CS6 install) I am reluctant to install latest Java updates if I am ultimately unable to put the Deploy.bundle and 1.6.0.jdk files in place

give this a review (get the test images into your problem apps and OBSERVE): DOWNLOAD PDI TEST IMAGE Photodisc Color Management Calibration Target Reference Image Baby Faces How To Achieve True Pri… remember: some Windows 'color managed' apps only convert tagged filed to sRGB what this means is proper tagged files will still show over saturated reds on so-called wide gamut (Adobe RGB) monitors on Windows OS remember: you cannot hardware calibrate or profile wide-gamut (Adobe RGB) monitors to sRGB unless it has an sRGB preset I just replaced my Apple 30" display I was careful to select a replacement that 100% sRGB hardware I chose not to get a wide gamut (Adobe RGB) monitor with a sRGB preset, but if your wide gamut monitor has a sRGB preset, try it... this is old, but maybe useful: WIDE GAMUT ADOBE RGB LCD Monitors Screens Troubleshooting Over Saturated sRGB Color Reviews on the Web Tutorial

Thanks, by your: >So the X Standards require an Output Intent Profile, which lets everyone know what the expected destination profile is Output Intent Profile terminology has always confused me - compared to how Photoshop uses source and destination (which seems much more intuitive) would your Output Intent Profile represent the document Source profile or a profile or standard based on the print space?

I really like that post, rob day I don't know if I understand it all yet beyond 'profile on / profile off' (for monitor display purposes) and for sending CMYK 'numbers' straight to the printer but it is clear Acrobat color management takes a lot of practice and observation for most people to figure out...

likewise, if your PDF is untagged - and you set up your printer to Convert to a print space ICC profile - you want to be aware of the same issue (the Source profile you are using for the conversion must be correctly assumed)

further, if your PDF is un-tagged (it does not contain an embedded ICC profile) - or objects within it have been mis-tagged or mis-converted it will most likely not display correctly in Acrobat UNLESS Acrobat's working RGB/CMYK profile matches the document's correct color space UNTAGGED DOCUMENTS: Acrobat will apply/assign/use its working RGB/CMYK profile for its conversion/translation/correction to the monitor space just like photoshop i am not positive about all the Acrobat export presets, but that has been my experience

You mean the dark blue R1 G1 B5 in the left side i don't see how any printed media could reproduce 1/1/5 as anything other than black to the naked eye even the right side RGB 0/1/14 but whatever color you are trying troubleshoot, a solid fill may simplify but to the visual mismatch on the screen you must get your source profile and color settings in order and nothing in color-managed Adobe apps will match until you: use (apply) the same correct source profile ensure your color settings are not changing your source document at that point Adobe apps should use the embedded profile and make consistent color translations/conversions/corrections to the monitor profile lastly, if you are using pantone spot colors in Adobe, i would expect room for error on the monitor between apps - it seems more of an art than a science to most users and not too many people know how Preview.app deals with pantone and spot colors in PDF, but if it's correct (what you want) that's a huge clue...
