Making sure that your colors match

If you work with photos in a wide-gamut color working space such as ProPhoto RGB or Adobe RGB, image colors
may change when viewed in a web gallery by a browser that doesn’t read embedded color profiles. If this happens,
try converting the image profiles to sRGB (which most browsers use as a default) before optimizing them or
including them in a Web Photo 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 “Assign or remove a color
profile (Illustrator, Photoshop)” on page 144.

To convert a folder of images, use the Image Processor. Choose File > Scripts > Image Processor. See “Convert files
with the Image Processor” on page 618.

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 so, make sure to turn Resize Images off in the Large Image options.

respective page.

Resize Images

Resizes the source images for placement on the gallery pages. Choose a size from the pop-up menu

or enter a size in pixels. For Constrain, choose which dimensions of the image you want to constrain during resizing.
For JPEG Quality, choose an option from the pop-up menu, enter a value between 0 and 12, or drag the slider. The
higher the value, the better the image quality and the larger the file.

Note: Photoshop uses the default image interpolation method set in preferences. Choose Bicubic Sharper as the default
for best results when reducing image size.

Border Size
