Color in Photoshop takes on two personalities. On one hand, choosing colors and applying them is easy, fun, and stress free. On the other hand, managing color — that is, making what you see on-screen match what comes out on paper (or in your browser) — can be difficult, frustrating, and chock-full of stress.
Unfortunately, you have to be well versed in both picking great colors and managing colors for print. (What’s the use of creating the next Mona Lisa in Photoshop only to find it looks like a fifth-generation color Xerox copy?) In this posting, I start out by showing you how to define and apply color; then I ease you into the world of color management.
If you haven’t already read the section on color theory in my previous post, you might want to give it a gander before you dive into this chapter. Knowing a little color theory may make this post a little more palette-able.
