Services
Anything that makes an image more beautiful or better is possible: color correction, brightness, contrast, saturation, exposure, special effects and filters, full color, black and white, mono/duo/trio-tone, and of course, retouching, restoration, and manipulation in Photoshop. Also, XL enlargements with special software! (e.g., for abris, billboard, or facade cloth)
Optimizing
The sources and quality are often very diverse in large projects with many images. After consultation on tone and style, appearance, and technical possibilities, I ensure a balanced and consistent image quality throughout your publication.
Digital lithography
The optimal result of your image by correct choice of white point, ink coverage, resolution/scaling, profile usage, RGB/CMYK conversion, and sharpness.
Images are delivered print-ready and can be saved in various file formats. We can also create certified PDFs. And, of course, fast delivery via the Internet. I have many years of printing experience that comes in handy during a consultation with your printer.
Color management
The use of image and color can be made predictable and manageable through the proper use of various profiles, a calibrated monitor, digital color proofs, and possibly press proofs. In addition to providing ISO-certified (contract) proofs, I advise applying color management in other parts of the production process.
The latter is particularly practical for designers, photographers, and illustrators.
Scanning
Scanning is still among the possibilities for digitizing photo prints, slides, drawings, and other possible originals. I use a HIgh-End A3+ flatbed scanner for this purpose.
