Hi!
I have a problem with one ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI) that I have downloaded from the ECI
website. When I try to load it in InDesign, I get the following error message:
"Some parameters in the colour settings file could not be used. Default values will
be used instead."
I have asked Adobe, and they get the same error message with this file, but they cannot
tell my anything about what is wrong since the colour settings file is a third party
product. They suggested I ask ECI.
I know a lot of people who use ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI) and have no problem with it. But I
do not know which versions of InDesign they are using.
Has anyone else here the same problem? Do you know if this has anything to do with the
latest update to InDesign (InDesign CC 2015.4)?
I know this is an old colour settings file, but my graphic design agency that I employ use
it all the time, and I would like to be able to make changes to their InDesign files and
not mess anything up. If I can't get this file to work, is there an updated file that
corresponds to ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI)?
I would be most grateful if anyone has some input.

This message is confusing because the "color settings file" i.e. a
*.csf is an Adobe format. So there's a bug here somewhere, because if
the problem is with the ICC profile (which is not a color settings
file) or with parsing that ICC profile, the error message is
sufficiently misleading that it's incorrect.
Exactly how are you loading this ICC profile in InDesign? There are
two ways: choosing the ICC profile in the working spaces:cmyk pop-up
menu, choosing an Adobe color settings file using the Load button in
the Color settings dialog (the button that appears under the Cancel
button). The CSF file can include ICC profiles embedded in it, which
makes it portable for not only containing color settings for Adobe
applications but also the ICC profiles referenced by those settings.
So what I'm getting at is there might be a parsing problem with the
CSF, in which case the question becomes what's the origin of that CSF?
What created it (application and version)?
If the problem happens only when loading the ICC profile in the
working spaces pop-up, it still sounds like an Adobe bug because this
is an ICC profile that's been around for a long time. I don't think
the answer you've received is good enough, but then I also don't
really understand the exact problem reproduce steps either.

Thanks for your input, Chris. Unfortunately I am too much of a newbie to these issues to
understand your answer fully, and I'm probably getting the terminology wrong. Perhaps
I am missing some important step. This is what I did:
I have downloaded "ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI)" from the ECI web page to my desktop
(not in a specific Windows or Adobe folder).
In InDesign, I go to Edit - Colour Settings - Load. Find the file "ISO Coated v2 300%
(ECI)" on the desktop.
When I do this, I get the error message "Some parameters...".
I can now see ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI) in the drop down list in the Colour Settings
dialogue, but if I try to choose it, I get the error message again and instead it's
the SWOP profile that shows up under CMYK.

That's the problem. That Load button is for Adobe Color Settings
Files, which are an Adobe format for exchanging all of the settings
found in "Color Settings" dialogs for at least Photoshop, Illustrator,
and InDesign. What you have downloaded is an ICC profile.
What you need to do is right-click on the ICC profile you downloaded
on the desktop, and as I don't have a Window computer handy I don't
know the exact option name, but it's something to the effect of
installing the ICC profile. It puts the ICC profile into the correct
location on the system, so ICM is aware of it, and via ICM the Adobe
program is informed of this profile's existence. It might be necessary
to restart the program.
Now in Color Settings, click on the working spaces:cmyk popup and you
should see the ISO Coated v2 300% profile in that listing.
When I do this, I get the error message "Some parameters...".

Yeah what it sounds like is you want to change the SWOP profile to the
ISO profile, so you need to change it there, not using the Load
button.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Funny that Adobe wasn't able to tell me that. :-)
Hopefully everything should run smoothly then.

You should probably first install the profile on the system.

Hello,
You should place the new profile file in your system preference folder (where you have all
the already present ones). Restart your computer and it should be available in InDesign...
Always worked just fine for me.

Hi Chris,
I was curious on your mention that:
”The CSF file can include ICC profiles embedded in it, which
makes it portable for not only containing color settings for Adobe
applications but also the ICC profiles referenced by those settings”
I never seen that but think that this would be very useful. How can you achive that?
