I don’t know if this is a Photoshop problem or a 10.4.11 problem, but it starts with image files created in PS CS3. I create an image file to my satisfaction. If I want to transport it somewhere I create a jpg version using Save As or Image Processor script. Then I drag and drop, cut and paste, or use the Mail Attach function to add the jpg to an e-mail message. When I do, the image is severely over-saturated, as if I had increased the Saturation by +50 or something.
One odd thing is that it just started happening spontaneously about six months ago after years of perfect function: The inserted image looked just like the PS original. I can’t imagine what setting I could accidentally change that would result in this. Obviously it can’t involve monitor calibration because it all is happening on the same monitor.
Another odd thing: Some people receiving the e-mail see the file as over-saturated, some don’t. I created a jpg in Photoshop, then saved a screen grab of it. Then I saved the jpg itself and uploaded both onto the Internet for others in my Macintosh guild to observe. Three of four saw no difference, while the fourth saw a dramatic difference – all remotely on their own computers.
Here’s the original jpg in Photoshop, captured by screen grab:
