Does anyone know how to set PS 5 LE preferences so that it doesn't change how colors and brightnesses are displayed on the monitor, in other words, so it just uses the Windows settings without messing with them? Right now I just want to have PS show things exactly the way my Browser (and all other apps) show them, so I can put stuff on the Web easily. - --Peter > Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2001 13:52:48 -0400 > From: "Austin Franklin" <darkroom@ix.netcom.com> > Subject: RE: [Leica] Photoshop edit darker than it looks > Message-ID: <NABBLIJOIFAICKBIEPJJMEMCLAAA.darkroom@ix.netcom.com> > References: > > The issue you describe is typically a color management issue.
