![]() Hi all, I am used to working with photoshop 7, but am currently trying out photoshop cs. I notice when i create a new canvas i can choose rgb/cmyk etc but also 8bit or 16bit. |

![]() Well at the moment using 16bit has it limitations, most output units that I am aware of require or weill convert the file to 8bit anyhow. The exception my be some newer imagesetters and I would guess it would be limited to grayscale images. I doubt anyone actual see any diffrence at typical line screening use for offset and gravure printing any ways it would simply be a waste of network bandwidth, RIP time and system resources. |
