Message: 4 Date: Mon, 06 Nov 2006 03:25:48 -0500 Subject: [Gimp-user] how to break down a photo into printing colors and newsprint shading Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Is there a way in GIMP to take any JPG image and have GIMP output 4 color seperated images as individual CYGK or RGB or choosable colors? I want to make a silk screen with a real complicated color image and I thought it could be possible to break down the photo into the silk screen inks and then make 4 different ink screens with emulsifiers by each color of the photo. I find pallettes and tools and such but can not make any sense of how to actually accomplish the task. Also... what about shading. Does gimp do shading...like newprint shading with dot densities? Is there a technical name for this kind of shading where a black and white image can appear as shading by dot saturations and not actually by having shades of grey? I'm real new at this so any information woul dbe greatly appreciated.
I think there is a CMYK plugin for GIMP. May be that's what you need. May be Filter/Distord/Newsprint is what you need for newsprint shading. -- Asif _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
