Hi!
I am at the moment starting work on a home page for my photos.
My problem is that I only have really worked with print files of my photos.
The files is used for exhibitions and a photo book, and working on two new photo books.
That means that I have a couple of hundred print files in .tif and .psd format.
Is it possible in a simple way convert those files direct to a .jpg format for use on the net?
I am also thinking of .pdf versions of photo books.
I really would like to not have to make two versions from more or less scratch of each picture
I have realised that it is not as easy that I initially thought.
Many files is in the full “bit-size” from my P45+ or larger from scans.
When I reduce file size it seams inevitable that I loose some dynamics of the picture.
I normally works with a rather small colour space that fit within srgb, but still the colours changes.
I often loos contrast and the picture become more flat and gray
My files are sharpened for print with often means that they are a bit to sharp for the screen.
And the tones of skin in shadow is a real problem after resizing, often it become to dark and “dirty”.
Is there some smart moves to be made, maybe with Capture One or Ps or?
Or is it that I have to really work on two separate files of my photos?
I have really no problem to produce what I want in print, but for the screen I really sucks...
