I understand that when you load an icc or icm color
profile in the Win XP display properties box under
the color managment tab, there is no immediate change
to your desktop display. Nor, does windows do
anything with this profile at a system level. It is
my understanding that the purpose of loading a icc
profile in that location is to allow programs such as
photoshop to utilze it.
Where my confusion lies is how photoshop reacts to
different color profiles loaded in my windows display
properties box. The only way i can explain this is to
give very specific examples.
For the purpose of these examples i used the same
jpeg file that has an embedded sRGB IEC61966-2.1
(8bpc) color profile. My Photoshop Color Managment
Settings where also kept the same.

* *note that when I open the jpeg in photoshop it opens with out any warning box because the jpeg file
and photoshop’s color spaces match (sRGB)**
Example 1: I have the "sRGB Space Profile" loaded in win xp display properties box. Now if i open the jpeg
file in photoshop and in IrfanView they look
identical to each other.
Example 2: I have my monitor’s color profile
(MDPR930.icm) loaded in win xp display properties
box. Now when opening the jpeg in photoshop it looks
noticably brighter. When comparing photoshop to irfan
view there is a big differece. The jpeg in irfan or
win pic viewer alway stays the same no matter what
profile is loaded in display properties. It is
photoshop that changes.
Why does photoshop do this. Any insight would be
appiciated.
