Dot Tab
These settings affect the output of the image brightnesses. Normally, the
output will be a maximum (255) at the brightest (highlight) point and
minimum (0) at the darkest (shadow) point for each color. However, this
can sometimes cause trouble for the printing presses, especially when too
much ink is applied for the paper to dry quickly enough.
Printers often request that images be prepared to lie within certain limits.
The settings on this tab sheet limit output at the extremes at each color.
Speak to your printer for advice about how to set these values.
The values in the three (RGB) columns control the maximum (for
highlight) or minimum (for shadow). For RGB color, 8-bit values (0 to 255)
are shown for each color.
The
Endpoints
pop-up menu determines how the values for the color
columns will be assigned when the input values exceed the defined limits.
They work as follows:
