Calibrating your computer display to our calibration print is a quick and effective way of ensuring that your digital images are printed the way you see them. All the information you need is provided below. 1: Order a Peak Imaging calibration print via email here and await its delivery. 2: Download the image file used to create the calibration print by clicking here [right click, "save target as..."] 3: Open the calibration image file in Photoshop. Set working colour space to "sRGB". 4: Use Adobe Gamma [preferably] or your graphics card's controls to match your on-screen calibration image with the print. The black (and white) areas on the monitor should match the black (and white) areas on the print, while the greys should be neutral with no discernible colour cast. 5: Give your eyes a break, then return to check that the image on-screen still matches the calibration print. Repeat step 4 until a satisfactory match is obtained. You should now have a monitor setup that will allow you to view images more accurately prior to submission for print!
