How Do You Change to CMYK in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 23, 2022 @ 10:09 pm

If you work in the print world, you’re probably aware that there are two different types of color models: RGB and CMYK. RGB is used for on-screen color (like what you see on your computer monitor), while CMYK is used for printing. If you want to print your image, you need to make sure it’s in the CMYK color mode.

So how do you change to CMYK in Photoshop? It’s actually pretty easy. Just follow these steps:

1. Open your image in Photoshop.

2. Go to Image > Mode > CMYK Color.

3. That’s it! Your image is now in the CMYK color mode and ready to be printed.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with color management and color modes in Photoshop, we strongly advise against changing to CMYK. This can result in unwanted color changes and potentially ruin your image.

4. Save your image as a PDF or EPS file.

And that’s all there is to it! Converting your images to CMYK is a quick and easy process that will ensure your prints turn out looking great.
