4-38 Microtek ScanWizard 5 User’s Guide (Macintosh)
Using Adobe Photoshop 4.0
A. Adobe Photoshop 4.0 Setup:
Photoshop 4.0 does not have color-manage-
ment capabilities for RGB images. In
Photoshop 4.0, RGB data is simply
“dumped” or transferred to the monitor. As a
result, the colors may appear to be different
in Photoshop 4.0 compared to ScanWizard
5, regardless of the ColorSync version that
you are using.
To display colors consistently on both
Photoshop 4.0 and ScanWizard 5, make sure
that the “Display using monitor compensa-
tion” check box is NOT checked in the CMS
Setup dialog box in ScanWizard 5.
B. ScanWizard 5 Setup:
1. Go to the Preferences / CMS Setup dialog
box. Check and see that the monitor
selection is the same as that in the
ColorSync System Profile selection (your
current monitor setup). If you need to
change your monitor, do this in the
ColorSync Control Panel.
2. Make sure that the Display using monitor
compensation check box is NOT checked.
3. To enable RGB color matching, make sure
the RGB Color Matching check box is
checked. Otherwise, raw RGB image data
will be scanned. It is not desirable to scan in
raw data and then perform ColorSync data
conversion.
Note that it is not desirable to convert the image
if you have previously chosen to scan as raw
data; the result will not be what you expect.
Always let ScanWizard 5 perform the color
matching for you.
