printing processes.
Generally, your workflow depends on the capabilities of the prepress facility. Before you begin a workflow for
commercial printing, contact the prepress staff to learn their requirements. For example, they may not want you to
convert to CMYK at any point because they may need to use prepress-specific settings. Here are some possible
scenarios for preparing your image files to achieve predictable printing results:

scenarios for preparing your image files to achieve predictable printing results:
•
Work entirely in RGB mode and make sure that the image file is tagged with the RGB working space profile. If
your printer or prepress staff use a color management system, they should be able to use your file’s profile to make

Work in RGB mode until you finish editing your image. Then convert the image to CMYK mode and make any
additional color and tonal adjustments. Especially check the highlights and shadows of the image. Use the Levels,
Curves, or Hue/Saturation command to make corrections. These adjustments should be very minor. Then send
the CMYK file to the professional printer.

Place your RGB or CMYK image in Adobe InDesign or Adobe Illustrator. In general, most images printed on a
commercial press are not printed directly from Photoshop but from a page-layout program like Adobe InDesign
or a print-savvy program like Adobe Illustrator. For more information on importing Photoshop files into Adobe
InDesign or Adobe Illustrator, see Adobe InDesign Help or the Adobe Illustrator Help.

If you use a desktop printer to preview the appearance of the final printed piece, keep in mind that a desktop
printer cannot faithfully replicate the output of a commercial printing press. A professional color proof gives a
more accurate preview of the final printed piece.
