Alright, I’m using the Adobe Photoshop CS3 trial on a Windows Vista machine – I’ve been using it for a couple days and I’ve noticed a number of times that the image in the preview window doesn’t match what I get (usually after using image adjustment tools like Layer, Contrast/Brightness, or Curves – haven’t noticed it so much with Filters, but haven’t been using those as much yet either).

Anyone noticed this? Anything I can do to correct it? It’s pretty frustrating! I’ll make a bunch of movements on a curves window to get everything where I want it, and then when I hit OK, the original image doesn’t change the way it’s supposed to.

Thanks!

I take it you mean that the printed product is not the same as the monitor?

Look at the image at 100%. Only then you see an accurate representation.
