![]() ![]() No Engine, Intent, and Black Point Compensation has been used, because there is nothing to convert. Check your CMYK colors twice, it's alright. ![]() Make sure your InDesign is not acting weird and altering your Color Space (like mine is doing). Pantones are tricky and were not created to be handled in CMYK! There can be slight differences with some Pantones when converted into CMYK in InDesign and Photoshop - and this might even happen if you're carefully following the same procedure. I created a new Color Setting from InDesign and then it stopped changing to another ICC. But I did the sync and still InDesign is acting weird, and actually it is not the first time - a few days ago I had to reset settings because it was not recognising Color Books neither. First I thought it was because Bridge was not synchronizing Color Settings across Adobe CC. I would have made a video to show you how weird this is, but believe me: I have been in editorial since 2001 and worked extensively with InDesign for over 15 years and never saw such thing. I would set it in FOGRA 39, it will automatically change it without asking to another. My InDesign is somehow altering the color profile. But while I was testing, I found something: Not as much as it was today in the morning. Yes: there is a slight difference, but not as noticeable. Then used the same PDF preset and checked with Acrobat the blue: But then I repeated with my Pantones: 7701C and 362C. I have repeated your experiment with the same Pantones you suggested and yes: they do match. I do also distrust the Ink Manager and do the conversion via swatch. Any conversion during the export is handled by the same PDF preset with same ICC profile and thus should be equal. I am not using one profile then "converting" to another: files have been set from start with the FOGRA39 profile and CMYK space color. ![]() No Engine, Intent, and Black Point Compensation has been used, because there is nothing to convert. Photoshop values are natively made into the desired ICC profile, while INDD works differently (colors are either converted or not to your desired ICC when exported to PDF). My opinion is: trust Photoshop CMYK values, and discard INDD. I assumed this was fixed, as reported by the popular I am yet surprised to discover that one should still distrust INDD native capability to convert a Spot into CMYK through a ICC profiles during PDF export. File is exported with the very same PDF preset that honors FOGRA 39, as done with INDD, and thus one of both INDD swatches (Lab or CMYK) should match. Resulting swatch is applied to object (eg a box).ģ. Same Pantone swatch is chosen from same Color Book as done with the INDD. New PSD is set in CMYK, profile is FOGRA 39.Ģ. File is exported through a PDF preset that honors FOGRA39, colours DO convert to destination.ġ. Resulting swatch is applied to another element for comparison purposes.ģ. Same Pantone swatch is chosen, but now format is made into a CMYK process swatch. A new Pantone swatch (any) is added, format is LAB spot. New INDD is set in CMYK, profile is FOGRA39.Ģ. Accurate color output will depend on how we manipulate the Pantone. Hi, let's see if someone else who also has a good understanding of color management could provide another analysis of this:Ī certain file for professional printing in CMYK space (no spot colors) should include certain Pantone swatch. ![]()
