PROBLEM: Print "Preview" .PDF color more red than .PSD orig
________
OS: MacOS 10.4.9. Photoshop CS2.

When I use 'Preview' from my printer menu and view the .PDF output, the Output color (.PDF) is more RED than the Photoshop Document (.PSD).

Any ideas? Does it have to do with an "embedded color profile" in my printer driver? How can I sync the colors to get a good skintone in the output file?

My Humble Thanks,
bonafide

If you are using specific profile color management software the main thing to look for is that you have your printer color driver set in the off position. I've noticed with my set up if I have the print driver on, I will have two conflicting profiles going on. Just a thought.
