9: Colour Management

If your going to be printing your work, you are going to need to colour manage your monitor. I think there are software solutions out there that you use to tweak everything yourself, but nothing is going to be as good as using the real hardware alternative.

I use the Spyder Express 2 Dongle Thingy

Spyder Express

Attach it to your monitor run the software and hey presto, abrakadabra. You're done. Things may look strange after your done as you are used to viewing the colours differently.

If you send your work to the printer or to the printer, you are going to get a pretty good match as to what you see on the screen to what you see in yout hands.

So there you have it, Bobs your aunties sisters brothers friend.

It saves wasting ink, paper, money and time.
