Color Adjustment of Picture and Group Edition in Color Newspaper (2)

The process of group edition is also an important aspect affecting the quality of color newspapers. The use of layout colors affects the positioning, theme and style of the entire layout. Although most of these are edited by the editors, the typesetting personnel must use colors properly and adjust the colors appropriately so as to reduce the time for adjusting the colors during printing and improve the printing quality of the small color newspapers.

1. Image processing in layout

In the process of group edition, the influence of picture quality is small, but it must not be ignored. First of all, don't simply zoom in or out of the picture when making a layout. Reducing the picture will make the picture worse, and the output will be slower. When you enlarge the picture, it will have more influence on the picture effect. If you need to change the size, you need to do it in the picture processing software. Second, we must pay attention to the pressure of the picture. The pressure cannot be too large or too large. Do not use it, or it will affect the picture. In addition, characters and pictures must be kept at a certain distance, and they should not be overcrowded or too loose, which will affect the overall beauty.

2. Shading treatment in the layout

In the small color newspaper, the most difficult to print is the large area shading, not the color is not allowed or uneven color, which is mainly caused by the color of the printing technology workers can not be caused. How to properly use shading to make it a reasonable part of the layout language is an important part of printing a small color newspaper. First of all, the choice of shading color should be reasonable. If the visibility of yellow on white newsprint is low, if a yellow shading is used, a solid color (a single color of 100% saturation) is used, otherwise it is difficult to have a high printing quality; if the shading has black characters, If the characters are not bordered, the shades of purple, cyan, green, and red must be used less frequently. They are less visible with the black characters and should be avoided. Secondly, the shading color should be used in the use of sub-pure, solid color, and less complex color, because the complex color is four-color synthesis, which means that it needs to be printed with four reasonable prints, increased in the small color newspaper printing The difficulty of coloring makes it difficult to print the colors and is prone to color cast.

Again, the color block is added to the objection text, because it will reduce the visibility of the text and should be avoided if the font size is not large enough. The background color of the text should be based on the premise that it does not interfere with the reading of text. Therefore, it is advisable to use a small-size text of a certain length to make the background soft and light tones, and avoid dark colors such as blue-green, blue-violet, and the like.

3. Text processing in the layout

Under normal circumstances, the body text is black, because black is the most visible in white newsprint, and it has minimal color irritation to the reader's retina, allowing the reader to reduce visual fatigue during prolonged reading. If the content of the body text must be in color, it is generally appropriate to use purple, cyan, etc., to make the color easily visible in white newsprint, and to use less visible colors such as gray and red. Basically, yellow cannot be used because this The color has the lowest visibility in white, and the color is highly irritating, it is dazzling and looks tired.

The headline of the article is generally larger in size and less in number. It uses more high-grade, high-purity colors, such as yellow, red, and orange, to attract readers' attention. At the same time, from the printing point of view, Easy to print. Of course, in order to meet the overall needs of the layout, you can also use some soft light colors.

Some of the above methods are just personal ideas, for your reference.
