How are color profiles different?

Color profiles transform a range of input colors into another and this means that you get:

  • consistent effect throughout multiple photos.
  • genuine look without artifacts caused processing beyond the images tonal and color range
  • photo effects that cannot be created in any other ways

  1. When I go to DeviceLink profiles, there are none. The only option is "Load DeviceLink Profile..." Do you know why they are missing, or where I can get them? I am using Adobe Photoshop CC (the version after CS6).

  2. Hi,
    How can you see the Lighting Effects Property of a picture in CS6? When I select Filter > Render > Lighting Effects... it shows me the last lighting effect made, or the default (a Spot at 25) - not the Lighting effect one associated with the picture?

    Thanks!
