Photoshop 4 Answers!: Certified Tech Support (Answers Series) Details
Amazon.com Review Stream International, a third-party tech-support company, has received many questions on basic and advanced aspects of Adobe Photoshop 4 for Windows and Macintosh, and this book gives you hundreds of them--along with the answers, of course. It's a great way to avoid paying tech-support fees, which can be pretty high. The book starts out with answers to the 10 most frequently asked questions, such as how to change the output size of a printed image and how to change foreground and background colors in an image. Author David Busch then delves into the full collection of questions and answers, all organized into related topics such as setup and preferences, image types, resolution and dithering, selections and paths, channels and layers, retouching and compositing, filters and special effects, type, color models, digital cameras and scanners, actions, printing, Web images, and adjustment layers and masks. Busch provides images illustrating the problems at hand--a good example shows the results of applying filters correctly to an image--and adds extra tips and explanations of the technology. For example, in the chapter on color, he explains hue, saturation, and color addition and subtraction and offers advice on changing your color mode. These tips help illuminate the provided questions and answers by ensuring that you're up to speed on the basics of image-editing technology. --Kathleen Caster Read more From the Back Cover Covers PC and Macintosh Versions.
