In this tutorial, we will talk about matching specific colors in Photoshop using the LAB color mode.
For example, you may have a client who wants to match the Pantone color of an object to the color that represents their company branding.
To do the color match, we’ll convert the image into the Lab color mode and make the color match with the Curves Adjustment layer.
If you’re not comfortable with curves, then don’t worry!
I will also show you a method using the Hue/Saturation Adjustment layer.

Hi Jesús, thanks for all your great tutorials, I really enjoy them. I’m having a bit of a problem with this one. When I go to the curves window to select the colour values I don’t get any output values showing, the box remains blank. I follow exactly what you do step by step, but it remains empty. Any suggestion appreciated. Many thanks Jeremy
Jeremy,
What version of Photoshop are you in? Also, if you could, can you send me a screenshot? I’m not sure what could be causing this issue and maybe this info would help.
Thanks!

I don’t. I would need to look at the actual pictures and think about it for a bit.
Hy Jesus! you are a genius!! Is it possible to get this video in spanish?? Or perhaps spanish subtitles, Some times in the video i can´t understand what you say so it did not work for me… I really need to learn this way to work
Thank you Lor from Argentina
Thank you, Lor.
I’m not sure if I will do that. It takes way too much time to translate it all. And I am way too busy as it is. The YouTube videos have English subtitles. I hope that they help.
Hy may I do this (curves editing mode) in PS cs4?? i am trying and trying but does not work. 🙁
Lor, I don’t recall what the options on CS4 are. I’m not sure if you can.
Sir, please do a tutorial video on sofa fabric change in photoshop (like velvet, cotton fabric or leather material etc.)
