Making different output recipes...
Here's my problem.
I want to output images in two formats - TIFFs for print and JPEGs for previews. I had one default recipe so I edited it to create TIFFs with my output values, then I create another output profile/recipe for JPEGs and adjust it accordingly.
HERE COMES THE MAGIC PART
if I select the first profile again it will now show that it'll output to JPEG too (in fact the first recipe now is a complete copy of the second). so... not understanding what's going on I change the first recipe again to make TIFFs. so I do. then curiously I wonder did my second profile stayed as it was adjusted in the first place and select it...
HERE COMES THE MAGIC PART
the second one now makes TIFFs! long story short no matter how many different output recipes/profiles I create they are all the same (they all have settings of the last adjusted recipe). and processing with all of 'em enabled creates just one version of the file - cause the program sees them as identical profiles.
besides the obvious WTF?-question I was wondering is there any workaround or a fix 'cause it's really sad not being able to develop the whole project at once

Just for my peace of mind, you are on CO4.x PRO (or DB), not standard? 0 -
Yep, I have trial PRO
and... it seems I've found a fix. I clicked the little triangle on the right side of the sub-tab that is called Process Recipe (the one under the recipes list) and then clicked Reset Tool.
I haven't tested how it'll handle the processing but at least the recipe details change when selecting different profiles.
If anything goes wrong later I'll update this post but for now seems like I FIXED IT0
