AndrewOW Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I think you'll need to 'flatten' the image before you can save it as a jpg. Obviously keep the psd file just in case you want to edit it, but having the 'flattened' version for publishing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Are you using spot colours, or index at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that works, but sometimes the thumbnails don't update with the adjusted files. You can rectify this by saving the adjusted psd or jpg file as a whole new one, but not using the same filename. Not a bad first attempt though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
