Hi there. This may sound like a very broad question, but I have been designing a program for an upcoming film festival in photoshop. The image looks great, very vibrant and crisp on my screen. Yet whenever it goes to be printed (whether it be at home printer or on a professional printer at a printing shop) the document appears a lot darker and washed out. I know its never going to look the same as it does on screen, but just wanted to know what could be the cause of this. The image is a CMYK/8 file and i am exporting it to a PSD, PDF and EPS file. I have tried the image on several monitors and it all looks the same. I really want to sort it out as I will be printing 500+ of these and dont want them to look average! Any help would be much appreciated!! |
