CooleyI have been doing fine art printing using both inkjets and a Lightjet lab for several years. Uwes book is right on the money. It confirms tips and techniques I have learned through my own testing as well as several new approaches that have improved my end result. The section on calibrating and white point sets alone are worth the price of the book.My only disagreement would be to calibrate at full brightness to let the software adjust the levels. It is most accurate and you never worry about how the monitor and computer are set.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. very in-depthBy runartwriteIts the best reference book Ive come across for printing in the fine art genre. Though Im reading it straight through; my notes are based on the index so that I can group all of the information on one point in one place for quicker reference when Im deciding what; and how to print an image. Its also been invaluable for paper choices and for printers and inks. An all around terrific reference. I highly recommend it.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Fine arts photo print makers cornucopiaBy robosoloThis book is a masterpiece and essential reading for anyone interested in fine arts printing. Im about half way through reading the book and have only discovered one point that I (and many others who edit photographs) might disagree with. Steinmuller and Gulbins suggest a monitor calibration using 120 cd/m2 at D65 for print/editing; which is too bright and too blue according to the recommended settings Ive read about and have used in practice. I use luminance values of below 100 cd/m2 and monitor a Kelvin temperature of D55 to better match the monitor with the final print.Otherwise; the book is a cornucopia of information and resources.
