Question
Will the colors in my photos print accurately on memorial materials?
Answer
Photos reproduce well in print when the file is prepared correctly. Color accuracy comes down to resolution, color mode, and reviewing a proof before the run.
- Upload at 300 DPI or higher: low resolution images look soft or pixelated when printed.
- Use CMYK: print uses CMYK ink, so converting from RGB keeps skin tones and colors true to what you expect.
- Mind the finish: gloss deepens and brightens color, while matte reads softer.
- Check a proof: review a digital or printed proof so you can confirm the colors before committing to the full order.
Professional CMYK printing reproduces portraits with sharp detail and natural skin tones when the source image is high resolution.
