Newbie color correction problem

by salevy » Sun May 20, 2012 8:20 pm

When exporting from Lightroom 4 to APP 2.6.3 on a Mac the tiff files show up in APP with a strong greenish tint, even though they look correct in Lightroom. However if I import the same image files as raw files into APP the color is good. I've experimented with changing the color correction settings in the APP preferences, but no luck. Thanks for any advice.

It seems an issue with color correction.
Did you try to disable this feature ?

Could be an issue with profiles. See http://ie.microsoft.com/testdrive/graphics/colorprofiles/default.html for one example.
I don't remember if APG uses the monitor profile or not, but AFIK lightroom does.

Our software is not ICC aware. But you should not need that to be accurate because the monitor profile applies itself for all software, if installed correctly.

The key word is "if"

I recomend that you check that the profile is installed correctly. IIRC you can take the profile off of PS and if the colors change, the profile may be the problem.

This is not normally a problem, but its the kind of like checking that the toaster is plugged in before you throw it out. :-)
