i'm doing a layout in ps and there are some images, do i have to flatten it before printing and what is the best extension file name to have a quality print??? (psd.tiff.jpg)
View 2 RepliesI've been printing my images and even with a calibrated monitor they come out darker than what's on my monitor. I'm using the proper printer and paper profiles and got to wondering if my problem might be that I'm printing the psd. In essence, before saving it I just print the image once I've made adjustments to layers, etc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if I need to "trap" all 3 layers of color in this design which will be screen-printed as a 16x20 sized poster. In some parts of the design, I purposely made the colors a bit offset. But the printer says I must use trapping. I watched a bunch of video tutorials, but none of them seem applicable to this particular kind of artwork, in which I WANT some of the background/paper to show through. But not everywhere. I work in Illustrator CS6.

Is it best to flatten my images once I get them completed or is it better to keep them in psd format with the layers intact. What are the pros and cons (other than file size of course).
do you flatten your layers when finished? PSD files are huge and flattening seems to compress the size.
Also, if you do flatten, can you open them up again to make further adjustments?
I wanted to use the program to design a robot for our school vex competition. Vex has provided cad files for all the parts. So, how i can import the seperate parts into one design. I can only open each part individually but cant find a way to combine them so can assemble the robot in one design.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using Ps for a while, but i don't really know an efficient way to flatten just 1 layer. 1 way is to put the layer by itself, but this takes time. Is there another way to do this? The effect would be changing an effect (fx tabs, strokes etc) into part of the image, so that part of the effect could be removed.

I've been working on a poster composed of several groups of layers and probably around a total of 80 layers. When I flatten the image, I loose all of my layer effects, things like bevel and emboss on text get flattened out.

How would you remove traces of a shadow in an image?
e.g. Let's say I have an image of a sheet of metal with a hole in it. Obviously, in a 2d image, it looks like a hole because part of edges of the metal will be shadowed where the hole is. But how would you edit the image to remove those shadows?
The reason I would need to remove those shadows is because I am importing the image into a game engine, and the bump map will be handling the shadow effects.

View 1 Replies View Relatedon the right hand side, the layer menu shows all of the diffrerent effects you have done to each layer? Then when you flatten it or try to run filters and then save, it completely edits it and smashes everything together. So how can I go back on old graphics that I like that have already been flattened and saved and find out exactly what effects & filters were used?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to flatten an image in Photoshop while keeping my transparent background. When I flatten, it gives me this white background instead.Â
I've seemed to of figured it out. what I did was>merge all visible layers(except for the background layer),>command and click on the layer to select all>flatten image>command j>deselect> and then delete the flatten layer. this gave me the transparent background I was looking for."
I have a problem with the blend modes. I created a logo and i want to use it on a web page. On the sample picture i have created a random logo to show where my problem lies. The logo has a sunburst behind it which has transparent effects on the outside. Also i have made a big dot behind the logo with a soft brush. I have used blend modes - hard light on the logo and overlay on the white brush.
Now the problem is that i want to flatten the logo and the brush. And keep the background separate from that. The background is a tiled image so it would be better to use it on a web page instead of one flat image. But when i flatten the logo and the brush, then the blend mode effects disappear. I cant use the regular opacity because i want the grain to be shown through the sunburst. Also i cant cut out the image because the sunburst is transparent from the edges. So is there any way to flatten the logo and brush separately from the background and still have the blend mode effects to be shown?
I'm using a Windows 7 icore7 machine. The file I'm working on is composed of six layers: 1) a masked Levels layer; 2) a masked Noise layer; 3) a masked Hipass layer; 4) a convert to BW layer; 5) a copy of the background layer; 6) the background layer. All the eyes on the layers are ON.
Â
When I Flatten Image the contrasty look I've created with the Levels adjustment layer AND with the Hipass layer disappears and the flattened image no longer exhibits those qualities - in other words it reverts back to being soft, low contrast.
Â
All the eyes are ON.

I tried various combinations of MERGE VISIBLE and the same thing happens.I swapped Hipass for Unsharp Mask and for Smart Sharpen and even more weirdness happens - These filters have no effect at all.
I have bunch of images (starting usually from 50 to 300MB with layers)
I'm flattening and making sure 8 bit. Most are ending up about 48MB. but some are ending up 80 MB and others 15 MB. what determines these oddballs being so large or small after being flattened?
Say you have a flattened image, a solid background and text of a differrent colour.
If you wanted to change the colour of the text is there some trick to simultaneously changing the pixels around the letters with slightly different hues (because of the antialiasing) into a relative colour?
i have attached a gif image of a letter zoomed in to give an example.
If you wanted to alter that text to say red could you do it?
I have a texture layer in my bevel emboss layer effects applied to a layer. Im trying to flatten the file to get it ready to go to printer and each time I go to flatten, the effect changes and darkens the entire image. I've tried merging the layers, flattening, adding a blank layer and merging down, etc.
Out of options and frustrated. Can someone please tell me how to flatten without losing the texture effect and destroying the integrity of the art?
whats the difference between these 2,flatten image and merge visible, and is it necessary to do this before saving it to a jpeg or something?

However, since it will get on a CSS gradient, I need to extract the icons as a transparent PNG file, which of course gets me this in the web browser:

I can't just flatten it with the background, since the background is a gradient AND I need to be able to adjust the image's position in HTML. Also there, are several instances of this situation in the design. The best way to do this is to have a transparent PNG of each icon. But, how can I first get the artwork at least close to the way it appears in Photoshop (in darken mode over red)?
