Whenever I use gradients, I dread the awful banding (I’m sure we’ve all been there). As opposed to using InDesign I always prefer creating gradients in Photoshop, with dithering enabled. So far, so good. But here’s the catch: when I’m comparing the exact same gradient (i.e. same size, same positioning settings), created with both applications, they never look the same. Here’s an example:

Color settings are synchronised, by the way.
Is there any way, preferably nothing too elaborate, to get the same results?
P.S. Don’t mention the banding in either image, they’re JPEG files. ;)
