Image optimization for Newspaper Print

[See Advertisement]

Hi,

In this tutorial someone suggest this color profile which is not included in the last version of PS. Does anyone know if it got substituted with another for that purpose?

Do you sugest any other profile for Newspaper print in Cylindrical machines? (much different than offset printing)

Is there also any tutorial online for manual optimization of images for Newspaper Print?

Thanks,

Jason

Do you not have North America Newspaper available in your Edit/Color Settings?

This tutorial is very old and outdated.

If you are preparing for newsprint, then use North America Newsprint.

The preset they show is for Offset printing (NA General Purpose or NA Prepress).

This helpx article goes into a lot of detail for preparing for commercial print:

Many thanks for your answers, help and effort. Offset? I need a setup profile for cylindrical machines for Newspaper, not offset machines. Thanks! In general, the profile must reduce colors, and enhance light plus reduce black.Of course all this is manually to do, but maybe a profile will do so with good results. Thanks again!  those profiles are available in the last version as I know so far....

Look below - US Newsprint is in the list.

Here's a good place to start, IFRA is the World Association of News Publishers, there are IFRA ICC profiles available which characterise newsprint.
