When you’re working in CS2’s Bridge, you’ve probably noticed that when you plug in a jump drive, memory card, etc., your Folders pane doesn’t always update immediately. If that’s the case, there’s a simple one-button trick—press F5. If you’re charging by the hour, you could always choose Refresh from the Folder palette’s flyout menu, but that just takes too long. Instead, just press F5 for an instant refresh anytime.

You’ve read some techniques in this chapter that require you to be in either RGB mode or Lab Color mode; however, if for any reason your image is already in CMYK mode, do not (I repeat, do not) convert to RGB or Lab mode for any reason. Once you’ve converted to CMYK mode, the data loss from the conversion has already occurred, and switching back to RGB mode won’t bring back those lost colors. What’s worse is, if you switch from CMYK to RGB (or Lab), when you convert back to CMYK mode, you’ll go through another CMYK conversion and damage your image even more. The moral of this story is-once you’re in CMYK mode, stay there.
