True color or not to true color

JimM

Okay, so far, I have set all of my prints to auto color.

This gallery I think I might want to set for true color, as the last couple images have white backgrounds, that might throw off the printers.

Am I on track here? Should I set to True color more often?

HELP!

Hi Jim,

You should print these at Auto Color. This will improve the skin tones, greatly. The skin tones in these images are very red - have you taken a look at our tute on skin tone? Try and measure the red levels on the girl's face - consistenly higher than the yellow.

The best thing would be to reprocess, adjusting for skin-tone, and then print at true color though

I'm here to help if you need it!
