The ICC profile is saved in the default profile folder:. Enter a name for the profile, and then click Create. The ICC profile is selected in the Color tab and saved in the default profile folder:. To achieve color consistency among InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop, you must select the same color setting whether preconfigured or user-created in all three applications for CS and CS2 versions, or in the Color Settings dialog box in Adobe Bridge for CS2.
The U. Prepress Defaults setting produces output most closely matching that from an offset press. To select the U. Before sending your InDesign document to press, create a proof by either printing to a printer or exporting to a PDF. When printing in a color-managed workflow, make sure to disable CMS and any image-enhancing features that the printer may have. Disabling CMS and the printer's image-enhancing features allows the application from which you are printing to control how the printer reproduces color.
For information on how to disable CMS and other image-enhancing features, see the documentation included with your printer. If InDesign returns an alert that settings you make in the printer driver dialog may contradict settings you make in the InDesign print dialog box, click OK. Disable options that refer to color correction, print quality, or image smoothing in the Printer Features section of the driver.
Features vary by printer; refer to the printer documentation to see which of your printer's features you should disable. Select the appropriate color setting file.

Firstly, as I have stated elsewhere, I am working with a desktop printer. And I am looking at color management from four perspectives. I was concerned with examining the regular output from Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.
I initially created a montage in Photoshop in an RGB color space from Trumatch swatches and objects I had photographed in my house as well as art work. These items I could reference from the screen to the original image. I also recreated this same montage in the same RGB color space in Illustrator and placed the graphics from Photoshop. In InDesign, I just placed montages from both Illustrator and the same one from Photoshop to make sure they looked the same on the monitor.
Keeping my space synchronized, they all looked alike. I, then went to print the pictures. Having used versions of all these programs, I didn't expect to find major changes in How To Print. However, CS2 has introduced some new methods. Now, using an ordinary inkjet printer could cause problems with output not matching the monitor or not looking the same in all programs.
Fortunately, all of my output looked alike and were extremely close to the monitor and to the hard copy as well as to the actual objects. But here is where a problem could occur. Ever since version 5. The interface was refined so that the Photoshop Color Management Settings interface has remained unchanged since version 6.
Every Photoshop user cares about color management to some extent and will want the prints they produce to match what they see in the screen.
The problem is that color management remains a scary topic for most people and it is all too easy to become bogged down with technical detail that goes way beyond addressing the simple desire of getting the 'colors to match'.
A large portion of my book is aimed at providing you with complete information on the subject of color management.
