Hi,
I have loads of pictures for which I have to adjust the histogram as my printing factory told me that the range of the histogram should be between 10% and 90%. What does that mean in Photoshop CS (8.0)? We tried the shadow/highlight dialogue: black clip and white clip but the histogram still shows dots between 0% and 100% and it shows white lines in between and is lower then the original one.

Thanks for your help,
Thomas

I like your new, cool name but I don’t know what the "printing factory" are after.

But if you adjust the Output Levels to 10 and 245 in the Levels dialogue and then look at the histogram Palette it is clipped as required.
