Conversion from RGB to CMYK for print causes darkening and loss of detail on the page.
I work in CS5 to create figures in a very wide range of colors. I use filters and adjustment layers to achieve the desired effects, so my images are degraded and high contrast design. I usually only work for the web, so I've never had need to convert my images in a CMYK working space. I started to make prints of some of my work, and I noticed I lose not only in detail, but dynamism as well. A lot of the darker areas are together burrs, and some of the areas of light contrasted against dark look less intelligible than when I created it on the screen.
My first attempt at printing has been at a Staples, that could be part of the problem. I had saved in CMYK TIFF and JPEG files. TIFF files looked terrible, but the JPEG has a little more clarity in printing. One of my TIFF files displayed on the computer of Staples like being completely tense and in grayscale, although it was happening on my own camera.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, because I'm trying to learn everything I can about this topic. Thank you!
Don't not bither with CMYK for any shape so "home printing". Their printers work no any different from your own inkjet and exoect images come directly from digital cameras, etc. And are calibrated accordingly. Otherwise, you have a lot of reading to do on color, color grading, etc. of the range management.

NET gradient transparency of RGB to CMYK for print
Downloaded a file from RGB gradient mesh. Did not sting lines will appear after the flattening of transparencies and conversion to CMYK also changed the subject. The main thing that changes are the strong points of the object then I manually changed those until I managed to do it look they way had to be (basically add extra lines on the mesh and using white spot on the high brightness and opacity 0 on the edges to have a more natural mix). Then, I tried to dish/pixelation/opening in photoshop - flatten - save as JPEG and nothing worked as when I print (with Roland VS540) it does not come out as it should. Help, please!
Do not use the JPEG to CMYK, which was only intended for RGB. Try to save as format .psd.

Converting Images to CMYK for Print Publication
When in my workflow should I be converting images to CMYK for print publication?
Currently, I shoot FIRST pictures with my SLR in Adobe RGB, import images into Photoshop for manipulating and then convert the final image, the size to CMYK before placing it in my Indesign document. Before you go to print, I convert my PDF files using the [PDF / X - 1a: 2001] preset. I use a system that is balanced with a profile for my monitor.
As many of my photos have shades of green, I am often disappointed by the conversion to CMYK because lose I the saturation and brightness. I'm doing something wrong? Is there a better way to preserve the quality of the color in my images when you go to a printer?
Never. Leave it as RGB.
All modern printers should happily accept RGB images. PDF/X-4 is the modern
standard. X-1a can be described as archaic.

Hi, I use Apple Photos to create a photo book. When I export to PDF, photos that are over 2 pages are exported as a single PDF page. For printing purposes, I want this to export in the form of 2 separate pages. I did this with iPhoto in the past and this could be something to do with the preferences of Adobe. I contracted Apple and their export seems thin e (or 2 separate pages). Any ideas?
If you have not Acrobat is installed, then clearly, it's a matter of Apple having nothing to do with any "setting Adobe." There is nothing we can do at Adobe to help you. Sorry!

How can I convert images RGB to CMYK for PACKAGING - InDesign CC?
I understand that everyone can be exported as pdf CMYK - but I am sharing a project with another designer and she needs to get all her files - many of whom are RGB - need them CMYK. Thank you!
You can not convert the links during the packaging color mode - and you don't need to, probably. Why do you have CMYK? Unless you know the correct output space now and not re - purpose provide the file in the future (and even if these things are true and you don't need to Validating adjustments of the conversion to color) there is no advantage and disadvantage, to be converted to CMYK before export.

Non-CMYK for printing color separation
Hello
This is one of my first posts here - I hope that I do not too bad.I checked a few threads here, looking for prospects and has already made a few discoveries but my question remains.
I have done a few trials with a Ricoh printer and am struggling a bit with the reproduction of photographs. The printer, I work with prints a color at the time: Blue (nearby), yellow (very similar to the yellow treatment), rather dark green red (close to Pantone 032), bright and black.
So far I've used the CMYK color separation (and rather rough halftone), substitute blue and magenta red cyan, but the pictures come out, logically enough, more orange than they should be.
So my question is: you know a way to divide an image into a given set of colors? (here, I guess it would be blue, red, yellow, and the black with the fact that I can print)
Please let me know if you have any ideas!
Thank youIf something like this is not a good place to start?

Hello
PA:
1. There is no separate form for invoice printing features.
You need create and view invoices from the invoice workbench only.
2. for payment, payment advisor-Run the separate payment of the program advisor.
Enter the statement of payment as a parameter, then you can print the same.
