Color Settings and Working Space

[paulMB]

Hi All,

I have my color setting synchronized via Bridge to Euro General Purpose (FOGRA39).

When I create a new document in Photoshop and Illustratator the CMYK profile is automatically FOGRA39, but in Indesign when a new document is created the working space is U.S. Web Coated SWOP v2.

Please see the attached screen shots. How do I ensure FOGRA39 is the working space for all new Indesign documents?

Thanks,

Paul.

Make the change in InDesign with no documents open.

That should not be happening. Try deleting your Caches folder and if that doesn’t work reset your Preferences. Do you by any chance have more than one version of InDesign installed and running?

Hi Eugene and Rob,

Thanks for the replies. I closed all InDesign documents, changed to North American settings, then back to Euro General Purpose 3 settings.  When I created a new document the profiles were correct! 🙂

Strange, because I made the inital change from Bridge which updated all the apps. But I think InDesign was open with open documents at the time.  Perhaps I should close all apps first next time just to be safe.

Thanks again, all the best!

Paul.
