Hi Everybody,1. What color space is used for the working space (aka Central Space, Intermediate Space, etc.) in CDGS.
The dialog lists a "default" space which I assumed was to be used for untagged documents. So where is the color space of the working space set.
If default refers to the working space, then what space is assigned to untagged documents.
That was the beauty of the old diagram. The working space) was centered in the middle of the diagram and you chose a color space for it.
2. What profile is being assigned to the document and to the working space when switching spaces from the menu. The profiles must obviously change when switching from RGB to Lab or to CMYK.

Hi David and Ariel,Thanks for the reply. However:Unless Photoshop X7 is different than Photoshop X6, you did not answer the question. Here's the color management dialog. It clearly says that the defaults apply only to the document. There does not seem to be an entry for the working space. That's a serious omission for the people (not me) who believe that Adobe 1998 is the best working space to use.Phil

Hi, Phil. I already answer this, maybe I was not enough clear. There's not "only one default RGB", the sRGb is the default on your configuration. If you choose, such as "NorthAmerica General Purpose". but if you choose another better option (such as NorthAmerica PrePress! or "europe Prepress", the defaults changes, and the Default RGB is AdobeRGB.
Read the image I attached previously. Or even better, choose "NorthAmerica PrePress" or "Europe Prepress"and see yourself.
Phil1923 said:Hi Ariel, That's not what it says under "Description". The "Description" says that it is only for new and untagged documents.
The RGB color profile that you choose will be used for "new and untagged documents". No matter if you choose the colro profile named "Default" on the preset list. Even if you choose a different color profile, if you choose it, it will become the new Deafult color profile new and untagged documents. For "tagged documents" (that means, ie images with embedded color profiles), it will applies the rules you choose on the right side.
