PHOTOSHOP WORKSHOP 2, double sided printing


The first thing we needed to do was to make the image an appropriate size and resolution
* image, image size*
The resolution needed to be changed from 20 to 300 pixels per inch, and the width to 21cm as this is roughly the size of A5.


Preview the image in CMYK
*view, proof setup, proof colours*
Turn on gamut colours
In order for the printer to be able to print all of the colours in the image, it had be de-saturated in a non-destructive way until all the grey has disappeared, and then painted over
Save as a TIFF file with unchecked layers
                                        


Turn into a PDF file using Acrobat




Print using preview
*layout, two-sided, short-edge binding*
