To synchronize color settings across Adobe applications
When you set up color management using Adobe Bridge, color settings are automatically synchronized across appli­
cations. This synchronization ensures that colors look the same in all Adobe Creative Suite applications.
If color settings are not synchronized, a warning message appears at the top of the Color Settings dialog box in every
Creative Suite application. Adobe recommends that you synchronize color settings before you work with new or
existing documents.
Open Bridge.
1
To open Bridge from another Creative Suite application, choose File > Browse from the application. To open Bridge
directly, either choose Adobe Bridge from the Start menu (Windows) or double-click the Adobe Bridge icon (Mac
OS).
Choose Edit > Creative Suite Color Settings.
2
Select a color setting from the list, and click Apply.
3
If none of the default settings meet your requirements, select Show Expanded List Of Color Setting Files to view
additional settings. To install a custom settings file, such as a file you received from a print service provider, click
Show Saved Color Settings Files.
To set up color management for Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop
1
Choose Edit > Color Settings.
2
Select a color setting from the Settings menu, and click OK.
The setting you select determines the color working spaces used by the application, what happens when you open
and import files with embedded profiles, and how the color management system converts colors. To view a
description of a setting, select the setting and then position the pointer over the setting name. The description
appears at the bottom of the dialog box.
In certain situations, such as if your service provider supplies you with a custom output profile, you may need to
customize specific options in the Color Settings dialog box. However, customizing is recommended for advanced
users only.
Note: If you work with more than one Adobe application, it is highly recommended that you synchronize your color
settings across applications. (See "To synchronize color settings across Adobe applications" on page 656.)

To set up color management for GoLive
By default, GoLive's color management system uses a standard web workflow in which you author web pages and
import images in the sRGB color space. sRGB reflects the characteristic of the average PC monitor and is therefore
applicable to the majority of web users. If you have a highly controlled distribution for your website (for example,
you know that the majority of users will view the site using Apple Macintosh computers), you can override the
standard web workflow.
1
Choose Edit > Color Settings.
If you want to author web pages in a color space other than sRGB, or you want to preserve embedded profiles in
2
RGB images, deselect Use Standard Web Workflow.
