D F: "...don't work in CMYK in the first place. Even when appropriate, CMYK is not for beginners." Would you suggest this even for AI? IOW, whether AI or PS... work in RGB and then, convert to the relevant CMYK profile at the last stage before outputting for print? This makes sense to some degree (a very, very large degree) as RGB (not sRGB) has a far wider gamut. All of which encompasses the CMYK colour space. But, what if you know the final output will be CMYK and only CMYK? Then? Personally I feel that if we follow the RGB workflow route, it makes sense because then, if the CMYK profile changes, there is no problem in subsequent CMYK conversions... Cheers.... ON ...

Hi.... So, the i1|Display Pro arrived this morning (oops, now, yesterday morning) Still to check it out but will keep you posted. Thanks again for all the inputs! ... View more

Mike... Thanks tonnes! ... View more

Thanks for that Bob... ... View more

So, that software - DisplayCal - should work with the Pro version as well.. right? Which then begs the question: Given that the hardware is the same, is the only difference between the various models/version purely the bundled software and some add-ons? ... View more

Yup... requires a bit of ood or thought... ... View more

Ned, Abambo.... Thanks for the replies. Ok... let me elaborate further... I bought a fresh subscription for my daughter. She doesn't - obviously - want my name appearing on all her stuff. So, basically, can I change the user id? Or create / attach her pseudonym to the purchased account? That way all libraries, sharing, posting,  etc., are in her name... Cheers... ... View more

Dave, Mike, D F, Many thanks for the feedback / inputs... DF - Tempted by the i1. Unfortunately that costs about $310 here.... But maybe, fingers crossed... after all, the price diff is only a month's supply of vodka . Price diff between the Spyder5Pro ($220) and Spyder5Express is only about $25 (which puts the Express bang on budget). The ColorMunki is $228. (Prices roughly converted to US$ and obviously higher here!) ColorMunki Smile is $131. Teeth gritting time! Mike - Saw the video... the main diff. - in terms of profile - seems to be less contrast in the Munki profile. So, better for press-print.  (But he was using the Spyder4).The next video on was also pretty good and more succinct : Best tools for calibrating colors of your monitor - YouTube . But doesn't seem to offer much recommendation! Will let you know what I finally decide. Meanwhile, many thanks. Cheers... ... View more

How does ColorMunki compare with Spyder? I'm looking for a monitor calibrator in the US$ 100-200 range. Grateful for suggestions / recommendations. TIA ... View more

Further... This has been posted by several people. The paste below is from a post by gener7: To revert to the legacy transform behavior, do the following: Use Notepad (Windows) or a text editor on Mac OS to create a plain text file (.txt). Type the text below in the text file: TransformProportionalScale 0 Save the file as "PSUserConfig.txt" to your Photoshop settings folder: Windows: [Installation Drive]:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Settings\ macOS: //Users/[User Name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Settings/ Hope that this solves the problem you are facing. ...

The behaviour has been changed... basically it's flipped compared to Photoshop CC 2018 and earlier.

I'm not sure if this is your problem, but I gather the 'Free Transform' has been changed around. As follows: 1. Earlier: Drag handles... it resizes unconstrained proportions. Hold down 'Shift' key and it constrains the transformation. 2. Now: In PS 2019, it's flipped around. Straight drag constrains proportions. 'Shift' key un-constrains the proportions. If this is the problem you can either live with it or employ a simple script. This was posted by a user, I can't remember his name: In the update information the was information of how you can get Transform to worl like Photoshop's other tool like it in the past. So that is what I do. How do I turn off the new proportional scaling by default behavior while transforming layers? To revert to the legacy transform behavior, do the following: Use Notepad (Windows) or a text editor on Mac OS to create a plain text file (.txt). Type the text below in the text file: TransformProportionalScale 0 Save the file as "PSUserConfig.txt" to your Photoshop settings folder: Windows: [Installation Drive]:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Settings\ macOS: //Users/[User Name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Settings/ ...

My suggestions: 1. You can import an AI file into PS. Do that at the size and resolution you need. You should be good to go. 2. Open the file in AI... set the scale and res to what you need. Save out (export) as a .tif. Open in PS and do the needful. Are any of the above of any help? ... View more
