LR2.6 resynch of folder brings in garish PSCS4 created JPEG..

[Etrsi_645]

I worked on the DNG in LR, edited in PSCS4 with LR adjustments. In PS I imaged sized to 8''x6'', converted to sRGB, and saved for web with embedding sRGB profile. When I resynch in LR and bring this JPEG back into LR, it looks oversharpned? (I did not sharpen in PS) and at least 1/2 stop more exposure, and extra contrasty/garish. I don't understand.

thanks,

Did you apply a Develop preset when you brought it back into LR? What mechanism did you use to bring it back in?

You may also want to check the PS settings. The conversion to sRGB is done using the settings in the Edit/Color Settings/More Options dialogue. This will effect how the colours are converted from your LR exported colour space to sRGB. I have attached my settings so you can see them.

Re: SOLVED

thank you for your responses..

It is solved now. In PS I changed Gray: dot gain 2'% to Gray Gamma 2.2. That didn't make any difference upon retesting all steps, BUT it does look like I applied my usual develop preset upon importing because I normally have one set and it remembers it. I got it imported with no preset and it looked great; I brought it into develop and applied my normal preset and it showed the exact looking problem I had..

thank you again,

Glad you have it sorted.
