Hi Everyone! Just when I think I'm set to create something wonderful, I end up with another question. : ) I am using Clip Studio Paint Pro Version 2.0. In the past my creations have not printed as brightly or as accurately color wise as they appeared on my screens, so I would like to know what "Color Profile Preview (under View > Color Profile) is best for print, such as US Sheetfed Uncoated v2 etc. Thanks sooooo much! : ) Cheryl

from a post I wrote in dec 2022:
short answer: Adobe RGB….
Working from memory about a very old post in the old )gone) forum, a Mod stated that Zazzle converts the image to their inhouse profile printing format. So you don't have to do anything other than save your file as rgb and upload it, Zazzle will handle it from there, and will let you know if there is ever a problem, theoretically.
Further, RGB has a much larger color "window" than CMYK, in cmyk some of the colors, such as teal, lose their vibrancy.
Zazzle's conversion handles things well,using RGB. Best to let the Mods chime in with specific answers. (probably too late today for Mods to reply, won't happen till Monday,) I have been using the Adobe RGB profile in Photoshop for many years, earller at Cafe"extremely"Pressed and now other PDDs, along with Z, still using with no problems on my Mac. For many years before that (1994) I used BruceRGB, which was a beautiful profile.

Zazzle Help Center > Orders > Design Tips DESKTOP MOBILE Suggested Color Profiles We recommend using an RGB color profile for images; however, we also support CMYK based images. A Note About Using Images with the Color White In an image, there are areas that you may want to be transparent (i.e. the area or background behind it shows through) or areas that you may want to be non-transparent.

Scott moderator posted on 1/31/23…check the color profile that you're attaching to the image. This might be a setting in the image editor itself, or a setting during image export, or both (check the export settings first). I've definitely seen blue shades shift a bit if there's no color profile assigned to the image. You can use Adobe RGB or S-RGB and that should be sufficient.
