Question
i have a image in RBG color mode from my scanner, and i want to print it, how do i convert this image in cmyk color mode ?
Hi Luis,
Although many printers can convert to CMYK "on-the-fly", you can generally achieve better results by converting in Photoshop.
Go to Image>Mode>CMYK Color and your image is converted. Please see our help page for an article on converting to CMYK and some of the issue involved. http://www.bestprintingonline.com/cmyk-color.htm
