Apply color edits through a server preset

If your Fiery server supports this feature, you can save color edits as a server preset. With a preset, you can apply the same color edits to a different job in Fiery ImageViewer, and you can also apply the preset to a held job through the window in Command WorkStation, without using Fiery ImageViewer.

Note: You can also save color edits to a local file on your computer and apply them to a different job in ImageViewer.

Save color edits as a preset

  1. In the Color Adjust pane, make the edits that you want to save.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • For Fiery ImageViewer 4.7 and later: Click Save As in the toolbar.
    • For Fiery ImageViewer 4.6 and earlier: Click the Curves tab and click Preset > Save As.
  3. Type a name for the preset and click OK.

    The preset is added to the list.

    Note: Color replacements are available with Fiery ImageViewer 4.0 and later and are saved in the preset as a global correction. Color replacements cannot be used on a per-page-basis.

Apply color edits through a preset in ImageViewer

  1. In the Color Adjust pane, click the Curves tab and select the preset in the Preset list.
  2. Click File > Save. The preset is applied to the current job.

Apply color edits through a preset in Job Properties

  1. In Command WorkStation Job Center, select a held job and click Actions > Properties.
  2. Click the Color tab, select the preset in the ImageViewer Curves option, and click OK.
  3. With the same job selected, click Actions > Process and Hold. The color edits of the preset are applied to the processed job.
    Note: After the job is processed, the color edits are incorporated in the job and no longer appear as edits in ImageViewer.

Delete a preset

  1. In the Color Adjust pane, select the preset in the Preset list. The preset is applied to the image.
  2. In the Preset list, select the custom preset that was applied to the image, and then click Delete. Click Yes to confirm. The preset is removed from the list and from the image.
    Note: If you observe any inconsistent or bad curves that do not apply in Fiery ImageViewer and you are not able to delete them, as well as Job Properties does not show the full list of curves, then you can resolve it by pressing ctrl+shift+D (Windows) or cmd+shift+D (macOS) in Fiery ImageViewer. This will internally delete all bad curves and Job Properties will show the full list of curve presets.

Rename a preset

For Fiery ImageViewer 4.7 and later: Click the gear icon in the toolbar to launch the Manage Custom Presets window.
  • Click to select one custom preset, or ctrl-click (Windows) or cmd-click (macOS) to select more than one custom preset.
  • Click Rename.
  • Type a name for the preset and click OK.
