For image editing, Photoshop is great. I’m a photographer, I still want

to

print. I use a very good inkjet which produces high quality prints. However, Adobe aren’t in the printing business and photoshop reflects that inasmuch as it is not easy to get a wysiwyg print. I have colour matched and am reasonably happy with the results but it’s the simple things like full bleed and bordered prints that just aren’t intuitive and I know that printers have drivers and software etc but surely there must be a printing

a

package out there? Has anyone used one, heard of one? I don’t mind

editing

in Photoshop and printing using another software.

Full bleed and such depend on your print driver, not the application.

Another vote for Qimage. Worth the money, no doubt about it.

Mr. Pickles

And what is the salary range for the promotions department at QImage?

Worth the doubt. Don’t put money on it. Confusing the usual interpolation lies. It lasted ten minutes on my system. *FLUSH*.

Perhaps Hecate and JJS are happy that they both contributed virtually nothing to this post.

One questions a promotional giveback, while the other puts it on his system and lets it live for 10 minutes? The smart money is on he is either a very sharp individual, or a moron. I am sure he has Photoshop (stolen?) and he learned it in under 10 minutes.

I never said that Qimage was a wizard type program. You have to understand it and use it correctly, but once you do, you can print a lot better images, a lot faster and easier, than you can from PS. Ohh a type to the moronic, don’t use the Profiles unless you know what the heck your doing. If you do within the first 10min, you will probably delete the program.

Now let us see how Mr. Pickles does in his post.

Hecate is a professional. So am I. I’ve used PS since V3 and have a lot invested in it. But I am not as smart or as experienced in many parts of PS as others her are. PS/CS is _that_ deep and capable.

I never said that Qimage was a wizard type program. You have to understand it and use it correctly […]

In other words, to get the most out of Qimage you have to learn as much as you would need to know to make PS work; in fact it is more difficult than PS/CS, because you have to dig beneath the Qimage bullshit marketing presumptions and such lies as intepolation is a Good Thing, and Qimage’s algorithms are better than PS’s – in other words you have to figure out where Qimage is subverting your ability to make individual decisions. That’s more work than learning PS(CS) and you end up with less.

It was obvious I was going to get a product name as that was what I asked for. Instead of denigrating Qimage which I have yet to try, come up with an alternative and don’t just say rtfm as photoshop and Epson and xp simply do not allow me to make the prints the size I want on the paper sizes I want.
