Using Production Color Controls
PowerColor’s CMYK Production mode is designed to combine the most common
tools for color correction work in a single dialog window. This allows you to work
more efficiently, gain a better overview of all adjustments, and use window space
economically. For more detailed and precise color controls in the CMYK color
space, or to build custom tables, use the Expert mode (see Chapter 5).
Note:
Changes made in Production mode are
reflected in the individual controls in Expert
mode and vice versa.
To use the Production mode, select Production as PowerColor Press Mode in the
Preferences window (see
Setting Preferences
in Chapter 2 for more details). Open
the Production Controls window by selecting Production Controls in the
Correction menu.
Production Mode Workflow
PowerColor’s Production mode was designed to allow for fast setup and correction
of scans through the use of predefined tables. Color correction tables are made up
of six components: Grey Balance, Dot Gain, Gradation, Tone, USM, and Selective
Colors. Selective colors are corrected in the CMYK Selective Color window (see
next section).
