meris Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Fine patterns in this blue shirt cause some shift in color. When printed the lighter sections of this arm turn purple. How can you predict and avoid this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 It's moire. Start by reading this. Let me know when you have done so, and we'll discuss further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meris Posted December 6, 2016 Author Share Posted December 6, 2016 Read it. That is the 100% print file cut. Do you consider that visible? I mean, those patterns make me dizzy but it looks like the shirt pattern to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Thanks. So the print was a fairly small one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meris Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 8*10. Inkjet The area shown was about 2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Oh. Inkjet. That explains a great deal. I'd be fascinated to know if the same problem occurred with a photographic print. If you intend to attempt the inkjet print again, you'll need to try the smart-object-surface-blur method I outlined in the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meris Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 It's a 12 ink print from my lab on art paper. Because of the paper I can't choose another method. How blurry should it look to be blurry enough? Because I don't see the issue on screen it is frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 What do the lab say about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meris Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 Spoke to one guy and we checked the colour profile and resolution. He said that it's just a limitation of the printer but he will ask the tech to see if something we can do. He did not have any answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Well, I think 1 pixel of Gaussian Blur might be enough. But gosh, I'm only guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
