    Color matching, grayscale confusion

    Do I even need to use the color proofing? The monitor is Spyder calibrated so i'm assuming the colors are accurate. However when using the 128 gray and the html color code the color is overly rich on the screen.

    Color matching, grayscale confusion

    Proof setup says "working CMYK" but proof colors are turned off. Don't see any options for Spyder. I don't print but the images I send to people may be printed. I have no control over their printer. The priority is for me to set colors accurately on the monitor, printing accurate color is a...

    I thought I could use a small screw in bulb or a cfl. I only need to look at paint swatches under this light but I need them to look as real as possible for outdoor light. What would you recommend? Would an electrical supply house understand what I need or is the internet better? I am just...

    Viewing 2 selected images at once on screen

    Thanks - I am able to see 2 images that I want when I have several opened. It's just confusing because each time I go into the double window it replaces the end tab with a different image.

    Refine Edge modifications change

    I moved the column over without resizing it. Even in the original image it looks bad. What I don't understand is what did I do wrong with refine edge? I made adjustments and did try all the backgrounds, marching ants etc and the jaggedness was completely corrected. Somehow it changed. I...
