7-12 Adobe Photoshop
Photoshop 4.x
A special feature of Photoshop allows you to save RGB EPS (PostScript)
images that include independent source color space information. This feature
is sometimes referred to as “PostScript Level 2 tagging” or “RGB tagging.”
You define the source color space to apply to RGB EPS images by specifying a
Monitor Setup in Photoshop. However, this Photoshop-specific source color
space definition is overridden by the RGB Source print option setting located
in the Print dialog box under Printer Specific Options, unless you set the
latter to Off (see page 1-5).
Defining colors
You can choose colors in Photoshop with various color models including
HSB, CIE Lab, RGB, and CMYK. You can also choose named colors from
the PANTONE color library in Photoshop. For best results, use the color
definition methods described in Chapter 5.
Saving files for importing into other documents
Before saving an RGB EPS file, check the Photoshop Monitor Setup. This
setting defines the RGB source color space information that will be included
in the RGB EPS image. You can override this source color space with the
RGB Source setting in the Print dialog box under Printer Specific Options
(see page 1-5).
Before saving a file, perform any rotating, cropping, and resizing needed.
This speeds processing when printing from the application in which the
image is placed.
