APPLY AN
ICC PROFILE
Once you’re happy with
the cropping, sharpening
and colors, you can set up
your print. For this, you
can use an ICC Profile,
which adjusts the image
for a specific type of
printer and paper. First
download and install the
appropriate ICC Profile,
then go to Edit > Convert
To Profile and choose it.


05


MAKE THE PRINT
If you intend to
send the image to a
professional printer, save
it as a TIFF and use the
Save options to embed
the ICC Profile. If you want
to print it with your own
printer, press Cmd/Ctrl+P
and work through the
print options. Be sure to
enter Print Settings to
choose your print size,
then click Print.


03


SHARPEN
FOR PRINT
Once resized, it’s best to
apply final sharpening
before printing the image.
Go to Filter> Sharpen >
Unsharp Mask, then use
the controls to sharpen
the details. Amount
controls the strength
of the sharpening effect,
while Radius sets the
size of the edges that
are sharpened.
