Bonjour,

Je cherche a creer une action ( script ) pour pouvoir separer mes couleur pour l'impression textile.
Un script qui pourrai faciliter la vie a un grand nombre de designer.
Ca fait 1 semaine que je bosse dessus et impossible de trouver, je cherche donc a pro level ++++  pour pouvoir m'aider.

J'ai mi en piece joint les informations pour expliquer ce que je voudrais. Je n'ai pas pu ajouter l'action que j'ai deja travaillé. ( les ficher .atn ne peuvent pas etre lié a ce message )

Merci beaucoup a tous et bonne chance.

Damien

I looked at your layered RGB file.

 

Can you provide a copy of the original file of the full colour RGB mushrooms on transparent background?

 

In your 3 colour example, there are black and yellow tones over the solid background colour. How do you propose to automate the separation of such regions? Is this based on tonal values or is it an artistic decision made manually?

    Here is the mushrrom and my full script ( wip ) : https://we.tl/t-vMw8bsy3z5

    For the separation into 3 colors, i don't want to make it manually so i play with the level under the gradient map layer.

    I like gradient map because it can be apply to a lot of picture style. In fact, if i have 3 tone of grey scale, it will be my 3 colors on my artwork. The problem in my script is : it work for 3 colors but I can't add colors ( on the gradient map pannel ) and i use the levels.

    Thanks

    What is the final print method?

     

    Are you producing screen separations?

     

    Dyesublimation?

     

    Or is this DTG inkjet?

      This script is to change more easly colors on my artworks in photoshop.

      After that i will transform all my photoshop layers into bitmap layers and i put them into a illustrator file to put PANTONE CODE.

      The supplier will use it for screens. So it will be screenprinted.

      Good morning,
      I am looking to create an action (script) to be able to separate my colors for textile printing... I have attached the information to explain what I would like.


      By @Damien28694733evnn

       

      Unfortunately, that PDF doesn't help me much (I thought that it may have spot colours, but it's just RGB).

       

       

      Is the green colour visually representing a solid print white base ink under the black ink halftone screen of the mushroom? Or is the intent to have a black halftone mushroom printing over a separate solid green ink?

       

      Separations for print output would usually be performed in the channels panel, not layers – using Grayscale, CMYK or Multichannel modes and spot channels as these are ink-based and not based on emitted light as RGB mode is.

       

      Photoshop can do a lot with an action (.atn) or script (.jsx) and there are specialised commercial colour separation tools for screen print.

        Hi Stephen, thanks for your replay.
        I would like a solid color on the first  layer and on the top a halftone layer per colors. It's bad i can't share my script.

        I made a graphic to explain a bit more, i hope it will help you.

        Thanks a lot

        You need to share files that are unsupported in the forum software via your CC account, or DropBox, OneDrive, Google Drive etc.

         

        Again, channels are the way to create separate inks, not layers (unless you are using C, M, Y or K proxy channels as spot channels).

         

        Can you post the PSD example with a transparent background of the mushroom?
