Hi

You could convert an image to grayscale then use Duotone and select the specific ink colours to be used when printing.


However, a quick way is just to leave the image in RGB and use a gradient map adjustment layer which will show that effect on screen and in print

You could do it the same way, but restrict the gradient map to the image layer by clipping it to that layer, so that it does not affect the text.

Thanks so much Dave - sorry to ask but I don't suppose you know how the green halftone printed effect is created here too?!
