Making sure that your colors match
If youworkwithphotosinawide-gamut colorworking spacesuchasProPhoto RGBorAdobe RGB, youmight want
to convert the image profile to sRGB before optimizing it or including it in a Web Photo Gallery. Most web browsers
can’t read embedded color profiles and assume an sRGB profile. If your images look desaturated in a web gallery,
convert them to sRGB in one of the following ways. It is a good idea to work with a copy of the images.
• To convert a single image, choose Edit > Convert To Profile and then choose sRGB. See “To convert colors in a
document to another profile” on page 268.
• To convert a folder of images, use the Image Processor. Choose File > Scripts > Image Processor. See “To convert
files with the Image Processor” on page 739.
If you use the Image Processor, you can save the files directly to JPEG format in the size that you want them. If you
do s
o, make sure to turn Resize Images off in the Large Image options.
