1. Indesign CC 2017 does not accept color management

   Hello!
   I work on Mac with high Sierra 10.13.2 with adobe CC 2015, 2017 and 2018.
   I have been working with Adobe for 25 years and therefore know the subject color management settings & synchronization.
   In Photoshop I have a color set made up of ECI RGB and ISOcoated v2 and other parameters such as rel.fartric with TK, etc.

   Then I synced with the bridge the suite on this set. Photoshop and AI do not accept this set but InDesign does. The error message comes:

   "Some parameters of the color settings file could not be used. The default values ​​are used."

   I have created a new color set from Indesign with eciRGB v2 and ISOctd v2 and get the same problem as prescribed.

   Have already tried everything, even the whole Adobe cc package uninstalled and reinstalled again.
   It did not help. In the 2015er and 2018er version, the indesign color management works flawlessly. Only with the 2017er version hooks it. If you create a new document after restarting the program, it will always be created with sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and Coated Fogra39 (ISO 12647-2: 2004). Only when you go into the color settings, and unchanged with ok confirmed (the settings are all right in there with eci rgb and isocoated) created indesign the new documents with the eci rgb and isocoated v2 profiles. I will despair soon !!!
   There are no umlauts in the name in it. Have also tried several times to reset the profiles and save again. Then the error message always comes as described by clemens. Although it saves the file in the Setting folder, it does so in conjunction with the complete path.

   The file that Indesign stores as a color settings file is as follows:
   / Users / username / Library / Application Support / Adobe / Color / Settings / Test.csf
   (this long line is the filename !!!)

   The file was saved in the Settings directory under:
   / Users / username / Library / Application Support / Adobe / Color / Settings

   As already explained, the correct information under the color setting is in it, but after a restart of the program only active when you call color settings and again confirmed with OK. And only in Indesign 2017!
   If you open a new page right after the restart, ID will include the profiles sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and Coated Fogra39 (ISO 12647-2: 2004).
   When opening existing files, no message box appears on "Deviation from profile or policy".

   I have still tried the folder writing rights repaired or re-adjusted

   In addition, I have the plate still run on the first aid in the hard disk utility.
   Unfortunately, the error still exists.

   What I have to say about this problem is that this error exists in three workplaces.

   I think it's a bug in Indesign.
   Have already discovered 3 or 4 cases on the net, but also with older Indesign versions,
   but all with the same mistake. Unfortunately, there was nowhere a solution for it.

   Need More Info  ·  Abhinav Kaushik responded

   Thank you for reporting the issue. We need some information around the issue which may help us in narrowing down the root cause:

   1. Does it happen with the latest InDesign version 14.0.1 ?
   2. Is it document specific or happens with all the documents?
   3. Does it happen when you switch between Adobe applications in a specific order ?
   4. Please specify your Platform, OS version and InDesign version.

   A short video depicting the issue will be very helpful.

2. Specific circumstances where an RGB black cannot change to CMYK

   To replicate this fault, please do the following:
   1) Create a new document using the web workspace.
   2) In the new document, open the swatches palette and note that the default colours show the RGB color spaces.
   3) From the Edit Menu, go to transparency blend space and change it from RGB to CMYK.
   4) Go to document setup and change the intent of the document from web to print.

   What SHOULD happen:
   All colours in the swatches panel should go to CMYK;

   What ACTUALLY happens:
   All colours in the swatches panel remain RGB. This results in an RGB black that cannot be changed, whilst other colours can be changed to CMYK.

   Workaround:
   1) Set the Transparency Blend Space back to RGB.
   2) Go to the document setup and change its intent back to Web.
   3) Once the intent is changed, go to document setup again and change its intent to Print.
   All colours now go to CMYK, along with the transparency blend space

   To replicate this fault, please do the following:
   1) Create a new document using the web workspace.
   2) In the new document, open the swatches palette and note that the default colours show the RGB color spaces.

3. CC library tab won't select?

   When clicking on the dropdown menu to select a CC library, the tabs do not open unless I hold down the ^ button. When opened, I cannot select a CC library. Have refreshed several times but it still doesn't let me change the library! This is on InDesign for Mac.

   Need More Info  ·  Anasuiya Gupta responded

   Hi

   Please provide the following information:
   1. Is InDesign installed on the default path?
   2. Do you have any special character in the path where InDesign is installed? Like username has special characters.

   Also, please provide a copy of you preferences, you can zip them and email to anasgupt@adobe.com.

   Regards
   Anasuiya Gupta

4. Changing color space won't change swatches

   BUG NOT IDEA
   convert cmyk document to rgb. Swatches won't change. Can change custom but black stays CMYK which is different than RGB 000.

7. Colour picker turns everything to blank with strokes, applies stroke

   Colour picker is broken. Everything is checked, but when I use it, it turns the object picked from into blank with black stroke. When applied, it adds a black stroke. This is true of text, objects, and links. Deleting local settings changed nothing.

   Can you please look at the separations plate and let us know the color values.

   You just have to follow simple steps:

   1. Launch your InDesign
   2. Create an object say rectangle and fill your color
   3. Go to Window→Output→Separations Preview
   4. Select the drop down of View to Separations
   5. Hover over your object. The separations will show you how much % of which color component comprises the color.

   Also, let me know the Platform and OS version that you are working on.
   A short video showing the issue will be very helpful.
   You can directly reach me out at sakverma@adobe.com

11. applying colour to grayscale images against coloured background previews incorrectly

    When I place a grayscale jpg in a frame with a background colour of C100/Y85/M0/K38 and apply a colour of C0 / M84 / Y100 K13, it displays correctly, red image against blue background. When I export that to PDF, the PDF preview shows no red, and a black box with the grayscale image knocked out in blue. When I open that in Acrobat Pro, it again displays correctly.

12. Help with Swatches

    InDesign CC 2018
    Trying to create a new swatch with "none" selected, but when I roll over "new swatch" button I get this symbol 🚫. On another forum, the correct answer was to select a user defined swatch; however, I am new to InDesign and working on my first project, so I don't have any user defined swatches.

    Please help. TIA

13. swatch alias

    When exporting a PDF and ik want to alias extra Spot-swatches to a FC-colour-Swatch.
    But these Swatch stetting should not be in the saved indesign file.
    I want to be able to only merge the swatch-alias in de PDF export (setting).

    When I those it during the PDF-export.
    It should only apply on de PDF export.
    Not in the design file Swatch setting.
    Otherwise I should have edited it Swatch-setting of my design.

    Thanks

14. SuperMegaBlack

    You have added a new color swatch called "SuperMegaBlack." WHY?!?!? It has precisely the same CMYK values as simple "Black." Very misleading, and a very stupid idea.

    Resolved For User  ·  AdminRavi Kiran (Senior Lead Quality Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

    The PANTONE 540 CP swatch, when added in InDesign, is a CMYK ‘Process’ Color swatch – it comes from the PANTONE Color Bridge Coated library. This swatch was used in a Paragraph Style and this style was added to the CC Libraries.

    You also created another swatch (a custom swatch) which has the same name – PANTONE 540 CP but it is a CMYK ‘Spot’ Color swatch. This was present in the document when the Paragraph Style (created above) was added from CC Libraries to the Paragraph Styles panel.

    When the Paragraph Style was added from CC Libraries to the Paragraph Styles panel, it found that a swatch with the name “PANTONE 540 CP” already exists in the document. Since swatches with the same name but different definitions cannot exist together in a document, it added the incoming swatch with a different name – “PANTONE 540 CP 2” (to avoid name conflict).

    Hope this is useful.

    Thanks,
    Adobe InDesign team

17. CC2018 Swatch panel bug

    The InDesign CC 2018 swatch panel displays different sets of swatches when set to different view options. “Small name” seems the most complete. Swatches are missing with the other settings especially after opening a document from a previous version of InDesign.

    You can small ‘up-down’ arrows next to the panel name to switch between the sizes of the panel.
    Please see if this resolves the issue.
