Book excerpt: What makes digital photography so exciting is the way it lends itself to simple, yet dramatic enhancement of the original images. This fully illustrated sourcebook helps demystify the concepts, tools, and processes used to digitally manipulate images. Through an in-depth look at all the major digital output software currently available, and the techniques professionals use to create stunning digital images, photographers will learn to use color and mono inkjet printers (including running test prints and image matching), use special file formats and color profiles, and employing art effect papers and alternative ink systems. From understanding resolution and color capabilities to calibrating a reference monitor and setting up Photoshop for maximum efficiency, these skills will help any digital photographer produce better results.
