James: By the way, did Bill Allen reach you ? He was thinking of putting in
that article of yours on OS2.. It still works with Warp also and that's why he
was interested..
Anyway… Here is another question on the problem I'm having concerning some
slight differences in "some" colors I see on a monitor using the TARGA card and
the Color print I got with the Kodak printer..
<<If you're wondering why a printed image has different colors, well, this a
<<field unto itself. The fundamental issue is the difference between projected
<<light and reflected light. Among other things, the ambient lighting in your
<<office will affect the color you see reflected off the printed image.
So if I understand what you and Edward harvey wrote to me on the weekend…
I output from 3DS as a TIF (or a JPeg) at Hi resolution and the file is then
input into Photoshop.. Now is where I'm foggy.. Before the file is sent to the
printer does it need to be "SAVED AS" something else "then" sent to the
printer…
Bob <<As for the difference between your NTSC monitor and your RGB computer
screen, <<take a look at the thread titled "?PAR/SCREEN Colors" in this same
forum <<section.
Checked for the Par/SCREEN colors thread and it was gone..
