Changing the color profile of a document
In some cases you may want to assign a different color profile to a document with an
existing profile, remove the existing profile altogether, or convert a document's colors to a
different color profile. For example, you may want to prepare the document for a different
output destination, or you may want to correct a policy behavior that you no longer want
implemented in the document. The Assign Profiles and Convert to Profile commands are
recommended only for advanced users.
When using the Assign Profiles command, you may see a shift in color appearance as color
numbers are mapped directly to the new profile space. Convert to Profile, however, shifts
color numbers before mapping them to the new profile space, in an effort to preserve the
original color appearances.
To reassign or discard the profile of a document:
1 Make sure that color management is on, and then choose Edit > Assign Profiles.
2 For RGB Profile and CMYK Profile, select one of the following:
Discard (Use Current Working Space), to remove the existing profile from the document
•
and use the working space profile for that color model.
Assign Current Working Space <working space>, to embed the working space profile in
•
a document that uses either no profile, or a profile different from the working space.
Assign Profile, to embed a different profile in a color-managed document. Choose the
•
desired profile in the menu. InDesign embeds the new profile in the document without
converting colors to the profile space.
3 Choose a rendering intent for each type of graphic in your document. For each graphic
type, you can choose one of the four standard intents, or the Use Color Settings Intent,
which uses the rendering intent currently specified in the Color Settings dialog box. For
information on the standard intents, see
graphic types include the following:
Solid Color Intent sets the rendering intent for all vector art (solid areas of color) in
•
InDesign native objects.
Default Image Intent sets the default rendering intent for raster images placed in
•
InDesign. You can still override this setting on an image-by-image basis. (See
and changing profile settings for individual images" on page
After-Blending Intent sets the rendering intent to the proofing or final color space for
•
colors that result from transparency interactions on the page. Use this option when
your document includes transparent objects.
4 To preview the effects of the new profile assignment in the document, select Preview,
and then click OK.
To convert colors in a document to another profile:
1 Choose Edit > Convert to Profile.
2 Under Destination Space, choose the color profiles to which you want to convert the
document's colors. The document will be converted to and tagged with these new profiles.
