Up until today I've never had reason to consider the who, what, where and why's of generating an image in Photoshop that was destined to be commercially printed. (The ol' HP Deskjet suited my needs fine.)
Volunteer = New Opportunities
That all changed about an hour ago: I volunteered to help our church design/get printed ~1,000 2-sided, color postcards that will be printed locally and subsequently mailed.
I hope to be prepared
I'll be talking with the printer this coming week and was hoping, before I do, to have a fairly comprehensive set of questions ready that, when answered and complied with, would result in meeting his technical standards for "input" and result in "output" that looks like what's designed.
For openers isn't it highly likely the format will be CMYK?
HELP: Need your suggestions:
So... What kinds of questions / clairifications / etc. would you ask / seek?
Comments / suggestions on design, color, etc. welcome too.
Thanks in advance...
