Tweak - making digital darkroom adjustments based on
output results
This editing component is the heart and soul of color management and
the print making process. Tweaking is truly the “art” of the i ne art print. The
process of tweaking occurs after you have followed all of the previous steps
and suggestions in the color management workl ow, and your print still
does not exactly match what you see on the monitor. Just as your i rst print in
the traditional darkroom provided the visual feedback to drive any number
of rei ned re-prints, the digital darkroom is no dif erent. Tweaking is the
process of making corrections again and again until you are happy with the
translation of the image onto the output surface. This is the test print phase
of the workl ow. (See Chapter 8, “Printing”, page 249 for more information.)
Now wake up! The rest will be much more fun I promise!
