I have about 30 images in a folder that will become a Graphi album/book. Unlike many labs in the US that print only sRGB, graphi will
accept files that are either sRGB or Adobe RGB (1998).
I used Adobe RGB (1998) Tiffs of the individual images to make the page layouts. I THOUGHT I had the color settings in Photoshop set
so that the working color space was Adobe RGB but it was mistakenly set to sRGB--hence the final page layouts are PSD files that were are
sRGB. I accidentally noticed that the PSD's were sRGB...
My assumption is that the files were "Converted to profile" hence they are properly tagged and that the prints in the book will look fine. Is there any way
to know if that is not the case........it would be disastrous if the files were "tagged as sRGB" even though they are really Adobe RGB. Is there any way to KNOW
for sure?
Related to this, I've always wondered exactly what is the impact of choosing a color space in the Photoshop Color Settings. ie, if I go to Edit/Color Settings and I have
selected sRGB and I open an Adobe RGB file does that have any influence on the image on my monitor? Don't think so....I assume (
) that the net impact
of the Color Setting is that when I do a Save As to create a new file it will automatically save the new file in the color space that has been chosen in the preferences?
