Jim Nickelson Fine Art Inkjet Printing Reviews
Using it to replace a textbook in my print production course
I like this book because it is much more applicable to actually getting a fine print out of the printer than the book originally assigned, which was much more on how to be creative artistically once you had a print and this was not helping students with producing good prints. I definitely will use this book as the textbook next time the course comes around in 2 years.
Excellent introduction and reference
This book is an invaluable source of information for maximizing the quality and presentation of digital images. It includes basic concepts of composition combined with technical details to achieve the best from any photograph. It is well written and easy to understand and includes methods for both Mac and PC formats primarily using Lightroom and Photoshop editing software. I recently started printing my digital images. 50 years ago I had a darkroom in my basement where I created both black and white and color prints from film and learned how to optimize the printed image. Prior to starting this endeavor, I would send my digital files out to be printed and the results weren't always perfect. Now with the information in this book combined with a high quality inkjet photo printer I can control the presentation of the final print and the results are stunning! The title,The Craft and Art of the Fine Digital Print is truly accurate.
