Designed in RGB
Designing in RGB is only appropriate for graphics that will only be displayed on screen, for example images designed for a website. When designing for print you should always convert your images to CMYK.
To create a new file in CMYK mode:
Adobe Photoshop
- Click File > New...
- Set the size of your image, then select 'CMYK Color' from the Color Mode drop-down menu. Make sure your resolution is set at least 300 pixels/inch.
Adobe Illustrator
- Click File > New...
- If Advanced Options are not visible, click the arrow next to 'Advanced' at the bottom of the window
- For Color Mode, select CMYK
Adobe InDesign
Adobe InDesign defaults to a CMYK color profile. There is no need to convert your InDesign document to CMYK or to set a color mode when creating the file. However, you should make sure the working CMYK profile is set to U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2. Do this by:
- Click Edit > Convert to Profile...
- Under 'Destination Space' select U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) V2 in the CMYK Profile drop-down menu

Text not converted to outlines or rasterized
When text is created in Photoshop or Illustrator they should be flattened. In Illustrator this is called 'Create Outlines' and in Photoshop it is 'Rasterize Type.' Text is no longer editable, but errors related to missing fonts when sending files to your printer are eliminated. You can also create outlines from text in InDesign, however this is not necessary if you Package your file before sending it to the Printer.
Adobe Photoshop
- Select the text layer in the Layers Palette
- Click Layer > Rasterize > Type OR right-click on the text layer and select 'Rasterize Type'
- It is highly recommended you Save As... to a different file name after you create outlines as you will no longer be able to edit any of the text.
Adobe Illustrator
- Select the text box
- Click Layer > Create Outlines
- It is highly recommended you Save As... to a different file name after you create outlines as you will no longer be able to edit any of the text.
Adobe InDesign
It is not necessary to Create Outlines from text in InDesign if you Package the file (an InDesign tool that collects all fonts and linked images into one easy-to-send folder for your Printer).
