Color Separation in Photoshop for Screen Printers Part 1

[KidsDestroyChiptune]

i have a question: i have this logo that i accidently made on 72dpi.. when i get a canvas with 300 dpi and import the logo, the logo is tiny and the canvas is huge even tho the measurement in inches remains the same. what is the best way to help me get my 72dpi logo into 300dpi? also the logo is fairly simple. 1 color.

@KidsDestroyChiptune You could just change the resolution back to 300dpi. This will help with the canvas issue but the image will still probably have some sawtooth edges. Only way to fix that would be to redo the logo at 300 dpi or take it into illustrator or corel and live trace it.

Hi, do you know why this is giving me a black background instead of a white one?

But pressman will want registration marks, color bars and image at least 3/4" from plate edge and a centered copy or the boss man will rip you a new one if it gets to press without them

This instruction stops midway through!!!!

Hi. I go to colour range, use eye dropper, make selection. But when I save selection as a new channel, the channel becomes inverse. In other words, the black part within the channel is inverse. Do you know why that happens? Also, what is an under-base? What is it for? Many thanks!
