I do a mixture of print and web work. I have developed a workflow for handling colour when creating web graphics, but I’m not 100% sure that this method is the best. Advice is requested.
I have my Illustrator and Photoshop colour settings set to North American General Purpose Defaults. My monitor is set with a calibrated profile.
When I prepare a web graphic in Photoshop and then Save to Web, the colours shift (naturally). To prevent this, I convert the image to my calibrated monitor profile as the last step before saving for web. Then, the colours in the graphic appear as I expect them to.
My question: Is this the best thing to do? Or is there a better way to get the colours I want in my web graphics?
