1. Color Correct an Image by Using Levels or Curves When it comes to color correction, Levels and Curves offer you the most control. Both commands allow you to make selective as well as global corrections by applying nonlinear adjustments.
2. Open an RGB image that needs color correction. Determine whether the correction requires a detailed tonal correction, or a quick global correction, such as lightening the midtones or increasing overall image and contrast. Choose the proper tool (Levels or Curves) and make the necessary adjustment.
3. Use Selective Color to Fine-Tune a CMYK Image Another very useful tool for applying specific color adjustments to print images is Selective Color. The Selective Color feature mimics the color controls found in most prepress drum scanners, which allow you to adjust “color in color.”
4. Open a CMYK image that requires some prepress tweaking, such as an image containing lighter flesh tones, or an image that contains a large amount of black coverage.
5. Use Photo Filter to Enhance or Correct Color Temperature Some of the images that you are working with may contain an unwanted “warm” or “cool” color cast, whereas others may require a warm or cool shift to emphasize the subject matter of the photo—and ultimately the message of your print design or layout.
6. Open an image that requires a shift in color temperature. Use Photo Filter to either remove a warm or cool color cast, or to add a slight color cast that emphasizes the subject matter of the photo.
7. Apply Lighting Adjustments by Using Shadows/Highlights Shadows/Highlights is a decent alternative to Curves for correcting dark, backlit images, which are often caused by the light source being positioned behind the forefront object in a photo. Shadows/Highlights can also be used to correct images that contain overly bright highlights, which are often caused by the photographer using a flash setting that is set too high.
