PS cc function is very powerful

One, shortcut keys

You can find the "keyboard shortcuts" option under the Edit menu, but we are generally accustomed to pressing cmd/ctrl+option/alt+shift K to bring up the shortcut menu. Locate the image option from the Application menu command, click the Drop-down triangle button, locate the CMYK option, and set a shortcut key for it.

  Second, the specification default setting

For the conversion between RGB and CMYK, you can set up a series of adjustment actions that contain all the transformations you want. The first step is to change the CMYK mode, in the Curve black field and white field to create a control point, and fine-tune it to change the tone value of the image.

Third, the curve set

Add a curve operation to the batch, even if you don't use it every time. What we need to do before action is to change the default settings for the curve. Open an image and create a curved adjustment layer, double-click the black dot Sampling tool and set the HSB brightness to 5% in the color picker.

 Four, Continue curve setup

Here, we need to repeat the previous procedure, double click the white dot Sampling tool and set a value between 95%-100% hsb brightness in the color picker. At this point, a dialog box pops up asking if you want to store the target color as the default, and you simply select Yes. In this way, you can do more detailed processing when you use black, gray, and white dot-like sampling tools for sampling.

V. Intelligent Sharpening Filters

The sharpness of the image printed out the effect is difficult to see, PS to solve this problem is to use the sharpening of smart filters. Use smart sharpening to change the sharpness of the image by changing the size of the sharpening value. In general, the larger the number value, the higher the image resolution, the greater the contrast of edge pixels.

  Use the Quick selection tool to create a layer mask

In PS, we often need to separate part of the image to make a specific change, where we can fully combine the Wacom Digital board, and use the Quick selection tool to save time. In addition, the Edge refinement option lets you output the selection as a layer mask, or you can specify an adjustment layer to adjust.

 Vii. Quick-selection tools

Click the shortcut w to find the Quick Selection tool, click and drag in the target area to make a selection, and hold down the Opt/alt key while dragging to subtract the unwanted parts of the selection. Press the F key to cycle through the view. Click the smart RADIUS option under edge detection and smear the selection edge to make the selection more rounded and fine.

  Eight, brush stroke path

If you want to do the same thing in multiple source images, you need to convert your design into a smart layer. To do this, select all the layers, then click Ctrl+right-click and convert them to smart objects. Then, drag the smart layer to your image file to create a layer mask.
