artscow preview settings

It seems that artscow has really poor customer service, but it is expected as the price is so low, likely they are under manpower with the massive orders. They aren't going to do adjustments to their printer settings. The powerbook price is just too low to miss out, so I did a bit of testing.

If your photos are contrast like what you see in our blog, most likely your photos will be too red and too contrast if you print their photobook. The setting I'm using now with photoshop (or any image editing software) is set the brightness of the photo to +20 and contrast to -50. If you can tune saturation, -3 will be good.

If you have photoshop or image editing software that allows you to convert your photo to CMYK color, then you can preview how the photobook will turn out. After u convert you photo to CMYK color, set the contrast to +100 and your brightness to -15 or -20.

Going to try reprint the ROM photobook again. Hope it'll be better this time round^^ Wish us luck...
