How does a guy color seperate art for screenprinting in PSCS. I build spot color work in Illustrator, but I want to take my designs to another level and I was told you can design art in PS and sep it for screens.
View 1 RepliesWe print out spot color seps every day using CorelDraw X4. After we print out the plates, I have to cut down the vellum that we print on so that we do not have a bunch of extra blank vellum on the sheet.
We make use of the info that is printed on the lower left of every page where it states something like the following:
S:DirectoryWhereTheArtworkisLocatedfilename.cdr

Plate: 1 of 3
After I cut down the sheet, I then have to hand write the name of the spot color onto the sheet of vellum in marker.
Is there any way at all, to make it so that CorelDraw would actually add the name of the spot color that is printed on each page to the information that is already being printed to the lower left? Ideally, it could be placed in the same area where it's already printing the plate information on the last line.
Could it read:
Plate: 1 of 3 Color: Pantone 375
I have a picture of a shirt that I need to show in several color options. I figured out how to use hue/saturation to get all the colors I need except off white/natural. I can get close to the right color, but by the time I do the shirt looks all washed out.
Attached are two photos. The red shirt is what I am starting with, the white is the color I am trying to achieve. I've tried various combinations of H/S, Levels, B/C, variations and curves but can't seem to get it without losing the shadow detail. I'm using PS6.
how to do a legit shirt colorchange on the attached picture. The color of the shirt needs to be a solid light color such as white or a light blue, but must look like a real shirt. If anyone could do it for me and tell me the steps id be very much obliged.

I looked around on the internet for professionally printed shirts(those are the same as iron on right?) and noticed that all the colors they used, it tends to be a little powdery looking, so I was guessing maybe that kind of colors look better in contrast with the shirts.
What I'm thinking of doing is just make the design's lineart on paper, scan, and color with photoshop. then preview and print on the transfer paper.
I have an image of a shirt with the sleeves facing one direction and I would like to make it so that the sleeves are facing straight up, as if someone was holding their hands in the air.

I have access to the fabric and can take pictures/scans of the fabric to extract the exact pattern and would like to overlay it onto an existing picture of a man with a proper dress shirt on to see how the fabric would look on the actual shirt.
I would like this to be as real as possible so that you could not tell that the fabric was actually "draped" onto the shirt. The result would be something similar to the Perry Ellis website:

whether this can be done with Photoshop or if there is another alternative method I should pursue? I already have an original with my model in a very flat grey shirt that I would like to modify.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSome of you may have seen my thread in the Show-Board section about a damaged photo I have restored. On the photo there is a lady sitting to the left with a cream/white t-shirt on, I have been asked to try and restore that bit too rather than do what I have done in the resto.
This is all I have to go on:
Here is the original image:

They want the t-shirt as well but there is nothing to go on apart from some apparent squiggles, as you can see.
how I can extract it, I can't even make out what it says or else I would try and find the t-shirt and put it in.
The man I work for wants a demo cover for a CD. He is wearing a red flannel shirt (it is suppose to be funny/outdoors type cover). The expression he has and every other thing is just perfect but I want to replace the plaid with a color and /or another pattern(such as a dark blue denim). Is it possible to do so without losing the lines/folds of the shirt? I know I can play with the hue/saturation but that still leaves me with the horrible plaid pattern.
View 3 Replies View Relatedhow i should convert a hand drawing in photoshop to be print-ready for a t-shirt image. i have a friend who is an artist with impeccable talent and i would like to get some of his designs on a few shirts i plan on making.
here's the deal: he can draw the image with shading or he can create it without (sort of like a vector graphic) but what is the normal procedure as far as getting a hand drawing ready for a shirt image? i haven't had him start yet because i wanted to instruct him first on which route to take. obviously, we don't want the pencil color to show but more of a bold darkened look so can i just simply darken the piece in photoshop or do i need to make adjustments in illustrator?
is there a way to get rid of the writing on the t shirt to make the t shirt plane and look like the writing was never there .
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using one photo, and I want to put a shirt on somebody in the photo. Here's what my idea is, I just don't know how to execute it. I already used paintbrush and zoomed in on the person and drew around the person's outline. What I want to do, is cut out that person from the picture, basically make two layers using the same photo, but not remove or move the person. Then, I was to import the picture of the shirt and basically put it on the person so it looks like they're wearing it, but put the picture of the shirt in between the two layers, so the background hides the excess shirt. I hope that's understandable.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to get some designs I've done printed, the design are pretty simple block colors and shapes, Xara Xtreme 5 is brilliant for doing these designs. However the T-Shirt printers (spreadshirt) want to files a vectors graphics. This is what they say on the site
Transforming objects into curves
Transform all design elements and text into curves.
This is possible with Corel Draw: highlight the part of the design you want to convert. Click on 'set up' - 'transform into curves'.; You may run into a few problems when converting complex pixel graphics into curves. Try to convert as few individual objects and colors as possible. Note: vector graphics for plot printing can have up to three colors per design.
Check the minimum size of the object
After you've converted to curves, you'll have to check every element of the design to make sure that it has a minimum size of 1.5 mm. One trick for checking this: create a small circle with a diameter of 1.5 mm and lay it over the smallest parts of the design. If the area is smaller than the circle, it's too small for plot printing.
Save image as vector graphic
Unfortunately, you cannot just open a pixel graphic into a vector program and save it in a vector format (.eps.) This is not enough. You have to manually make sure the pixel graphic has been converted into curves.
Can I just export as an .eps and it'll work, or do I need to convert to editable shapes then export?
for photoshop elements, someone told me to create new layers and use the dodge tool, but I no longer have elements and have switched to gimp.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm pretty familiar with preparing files for print in Illustrator and am currently using CS6. However, I'm not at all familiar with preparing files for printing on non-white fabrics (a black t-shirt in this case). I've had a hunt on Google but haven't yet found a simple answer to my question which is this:
The logo is red and black on a white background (shown below). How do I make sure that the white area prints as white and not "no ink" as would happen when printing on white stock?
There will be a small run initially, so will probably use a heat transfer method rather than screen printing at this point.
I am designing a T Shirt for my ski club.I have taken an image from a banner (made in illustrator, full colour image attached) and I want to devide into a 3 colour image for the t shirt (I am only allowed 3 colours for printing).The colours I want to use are black, white and purple. The colour of the t shirt is a light blue.I want to then put the purple logo on top of the white and black too.So I'm after a black and white grunge background with a punchy purple logo on the top.All of this should be on a tranparent or, for design purposes, light bue (same as T Shirt colour) background.
how to split a full colour image into using only 3 (4 including transparent/light blue background) exact colours.
If I were going to black and white I might convert to grey scale and then paint areas to fully white or fully black using an overlay brush I don't think this works for me for more than just black and white though.
I have attached two of my attempts where I used the colour range selection and level adjustments. Niether was really successful though (one does not use the right colours or number of colours but looks quite cool).
am trying to make a fairly basic t shirt design. I have looked at tutorials but can't seem to find insight on what I am specifically trying to do. I'm looking to have a lightning bolt striking a rock, with gradient shapes and possible bits of rock coming out of the rock.
