Help needed on photoshop CS5

I work in a tattoo shop and currently using Photoshop CS5 for a trial period.
Basically I need to be able to transform a photograph into a black and white stencil or line sheet as it is known in the tattoo industry.
This is in order for us to be able to produce portrait tattoos.
I have tried all sorts of combinations within filters but can never get quite what we are looking for.
Any help or assistance on this would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

    Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with reddish cast and loss of detail
    System: Windows 7
    Adobe CS5
    Printer: Epson Stylus Photo 1400
    Paper: Inkjet matte presentation paper with slight luster
    Installed latest patch for Adobe CS5
    Epson driver up to date
    After reading solutions online and trying them for my settings for 2 days I am still unable to print what I am seeing on my screen in Adobe CS5. I calibrated my monitor, but am not sure once calibration is saved if I somehow use this setting in Photoshop’s color management.
    The files I am printing are photographs of dogs with lots of detail  I digitally painted with my Wacom tablet in Photoshop CS5 and then printed with Epson Stylus 1400 on inkjet paper 20lb with slight luster.
    My Printed images lose a lot of the detail & come out way to dark with a reddish cast and loss of detail when I used these settings in the printing window:
    Color Handling: Photoshop manages color, Color management -ICM, OFF no color adjustment.
    When I change to these settings in printer window: Color Handling:  Printer manages color.  Color management- Color Controls, 1.8 Gamma and choose Epson Standard it prints lighter, but with reddish cast and very little detail and this is the best setting I have used so far.
    Based on what I have read on line, I think the issue is mainly to do with what controls are set in the Photoshop Color Settings window and the Epson Printer preferences. I have screen images attached of these windows and would appreciate knowing what you recommend I enter for each choice.
    Also I am confused as to what ICM color management system to use with this printer and CS5:
    What is the best ICM to use with PS CS5 & the Epson 1400 printer? Should I use the same ICM for both?
    Do I embed the ICM I choose into the new files I create? 
    Do I view all files in the CS5 workspace in this default ICM?
    Do I set my monitor setting to the same ICM?
    If new file opens in CS5 workspace and it has a different embedded profile than my workspace, do I convert it?
    Do I set my printer, Monitor and PS CS5 color settings to the same ICM?
    Is using the same ICM for all devices what is called a consistent workflow?
    I appreciate any and all advice that can be sent my way on this complicated issue. Thank you in advance for your time and kind help.

    It may be possible to figure out by watching a Dr.Brown video on the subject of color printing. Adobe tv
    I hope this may help...............

  • I want to download whatever updates I need for Photoshop CS5. I try using Adobe Application manager and it isnt working.

    I want to download whatever updates I need for Photoshop CS5. I am using Adobe Application Manager and there are updates but they arnt going through. It has been awhile since I tried. Dont remember when the last time was. But my Mac Book Pro is in good shape and I am finally getting around to this. didnt expect it not to work. Help?

    Hi Richei Creative,
    These would be my suggestions:
    Create a new user account with administrative rights, log out of your current account and into that one, launch Adobe Application Manager and attempt the Photoshop update again.
    Instructions if you need them  - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11468
    If this fails, uninstall Photoshop (Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers) and reinstall Photoshop then from Adobe Application Manager the attempt the Photoshop update again, also from the newly created user account.
    Hope these help,
    -Dave

  • I need a Photoshop CS5 Extended Disk.

    I purchased Photoshop CS5 Extended in 2010, and I have my key.  I lost my disk, and it is stopping me from upgrading my computer or replacing it because I can't reload Photoshop.  The person I talked to at Adobe told me that they only thing they could recommend is to upgrade to CS6.  Of course they would say that.  How can I get a copy of the disk so that I can upgrade my computer or replace it?  I was told the same thing by HP until I told them I would get rid of the 4 HP printers and 3 HP computers (Desktops and laptops) I already own and buy their competitors' brands.  Then magically, a disk appeared even though the printer whose software it belonged to was old, and they didn't have the disks in stock - so they said.   I can't even get past the first line techs that tell me the same thing - no CS5 Extended disks.  What can I do????

  • Need help on Adobe Photoshop CS5 Classroom in a Book

    Hi,
    I need to study the book but does anyone know what are the list of concepts, tools, and skills in lessons 1-3?

    Hi Nini Tjäder,
    Thanks for the link but I actually have the book that shows the same thing except the links from amazon unfortunately doesn't show the tools and what they do. Thanks anyways. I was able to find a site that shows the list of tools like in the book but better in one single page. I just wish I knew what my professor meant by "concepts" and "skills" since there could be a variety of these but what?

  • Help with downloading Photoshop CS5.1 on iMac

    Hi there,
    I just bought a new iMac, and I am unsure of what to do with photoshop and lightroom. I have bought and downloaded both of them in the last year and a half through the education discount store, and they are on my laptop. I have older versions of both of these products.
    I've only downloaded each of them on one computer (my laptop), but I can't find a way to transfer them to my iMac. I can't download CS5.1 or Lightroom 3 from Adobe, I figured if I could them I could just use the same serial number since you are supposed to be able to download them onto two different computers.
    I would really appreciate some help!
    Thanks,
    Kristyn

    What does "my laptop" mean? If it is a Windows machine, then there is no way to use your PS on a Mac - serials are platform specific. Buy a new license of PS for your Mac then. LR is cross-platform, on the other hand. You should have no problems installing it on both machines. Downloads can be found using this method:

  • Help Equipping  a Photoshop CS5 Computer

    I am an ex photographer who is getting back into slide shows and photography after a number of years away.  I want to rework photographs for my slide shows so I have purchased CS5 Extended.  I also may want to do some limited video editing in the near future.  My desktop computer with XP is getting tired, so I am going to upgrade to a Dell Studio XPS 9100.  I won't be a heavy PS user, but want something that will handle it well and not be out of date soon.  I will also be using this computer for some business applications.
    I have been following your forum on PS PCs. 
    Does the following sound OK?
    Studio XPS 9100
    Intel IM7-930, 2.80GHz 64 bit
    Windows Professional (So I can run XP stuff in protected mode)
    8GB DDR3 SDRAM @1333MHz
    1TB 7200RPM, SATA 3.0Gb/s, 16mmCache
    (No Solid State Drive offered by Dell for scratch disk, so I will buy one later)
    Nvidia Genforce G405

    SSDs promise much higher throughput with a single drive on a single SATA cable, but at the moment to get that advantage you pay a good bit extra money and the sizes are limited.
    It can certainly be a big advantage to achieve a much greater than the approximately 90 to 100 megabytes/second throughput a typical spinning drive provides, which is why I use RAID to gang drives together so they work in parallel.  The advantage of this approach is that you can both multiply the throughput AND get the much higher capacity.  For example, two high quality 1 TB electromechanical (spinning) drives can provide a 2 TB partition (the biggest Windows 7 can boot from without special BIOS considerations) and throughput the equals or exceeds what a single SSD delivers...
    The short answer to your question is this:  If you see your system on the hard drive a lot while you're waiting for things to happen, there's a good chance faster hard drive access will help you.

    Thanks in FINDER/PICTURES
    It's not entirely clear what you mean by that. If you have that "Pictures" folder open and you hold down a command key while you click on the icon just left of the "Pictures" name in the title bar, you'll see a list of the folder hierarchy. I'll guess you'll see this list:
    - Pictures
    - <yourusername>
    - Users
    - <yourmacdisk>
    - <yourcomputer>
    Is that what you see?
    With that particular file you're editing selected in the Finder, pull down the Finder menu option File -> Get Info. In the resulting window what do you see in the "Sharing & Permissions" section? (Expand that section by clicking on the disclosure triangle if necessary.) Does it say "You can read and write"?
    In a Finder window click on the sidebar item with your your user name. In the resulting window repeat the "Get Info" process above after selecting the "Pictures" folder. Do you now see "You can read and write" again?
    Can you drag a file (perhaps from your computer's Desktop) into the "Pictures" folder? Can you select a file in that folder and invoke the Finder menu item File -> Duplicate?
