Photoshop 4.x
A special feature of Photoshop allows you to save RGB EPS (PostScript) images that
include independent source color space information. This feature is sometimes referred
to as "PostScript Level 2 tagging" or "RGB tagging."
You define the source color space to apply to RGB EPS images by specifying a Monitor
Setup in Photoshop. However, this Photoshop-specific source color space definition is
overridden by the RGB Source print option setting located in the Print dialog box
under Printer Specific Options, unless you set the latter to Off (see page 1-6).
Defining colors
You can choose colors in Photoshop with various color models including HSB, CIE
Lab, RGB, and CMYK. You can also choose named colors from the PANTONE color
library in Photoshop. For best results, use the color definition methods described in
Chapter 5.
Saving files for importing into other documents
Before saving an RGB EPS file, check the Photoshop Monitor Setup. This setting
defines the RGB source color space information that will be included in the RGB EPS
image. You can override this source color space with the RGB Source setting in the
Print dialog box under Printer Specific Options (see page 1-6).
Before saving a file, perform any rotating, cropping, and resizing needed. This speeds
processing when printing from the application in which the image is placed.
It is recommended that you use the EPS or TIFF file formats to save RGB images that
will be imported into other documents and printed to the ColorPASS. EPS and TIFF
files can be imported into virtually all page layout applications.
