Printing is in this department too.
I have a friend who makes automotive decals, and he got a new (to him) large format Epson printer last year. The seller included a circa 2014 Mac Mini which has all the software installed and setup for the printer, as apparently it's painful to setup and doesn't work well with Windows.
And the friend uses CorelDRAW for making designs. When he first told me I didn't believe him that it is still around :D
- TylerE 3y agoSomeone needs to do a "what computer scientists don't know about color" article. Like, in CYMK is black <0,0,0,1> or <1,1,1,1>? Depends.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoIs this a graphics designers' equivalent to the difference between 0 and -0?
- TylerE 3y agoNo, on actual paper one is darker and more saturated than the other. Unlike RGB, CMYK is subtractive, so “all of everything” gives you black, not white. https://www.rightbydelzer.com/standard-black-vs-rich-black https://www.rightbydelzer.com/standard-black-vs-rich-black
- TeMPOraL 3y agoDigitally these should be equivalent. Physically, I'd assume it's just as likely that adding CMY pigments would dilute the K and make it less purely black - but, per link you shared, it seems it's the opposite, and I didn't even realize this is an actual technique. Thanks for posting!
