I know this is the colorsync list, but now that there are dedicated
greyscale working spaces in the new version of Photoshop, it does seem to
fall into the color management category.
We are still using version 5 and my question to the group is this:
Would a custom greyscale working space be able to simulate the dot gain and
paper color of newsprint? We've just been winging it up till now...going by
numbers and learning how the image needs to appear on screen to reproduce
in the local papers. We have several unexperienced people in our department
now, and unfortunately they get assigned most of the B&W work. Does anybody
have any thoughts on this?
- Go to Edit:Color Settings...
- Click the Gray popup and select Load Gray...
- Find and load your current newsprint file
- Photoshop will construct a gray curve based on the blacks in the
newsprint profile
done!
Ooops, not quite - you are on 5
OK
- Go to File: Color Settings->Grayscale setup
- select Ink black
- Photoshop will construct a gray curve based on the blacks in the
current CMYK profile
now your done....
