adding trap in photoshop
« on: August 23, 2012, 02:36:17 AM »
I`m not working that often in Photoshop so I was wondering what the minimum trap is I can add to an object. All I could achieve was 1 pixel which in my opinion is far too much. Is there no way of adding less trap?

1  pixel at what resolution? Double your resolution, and that one pixel will be half the previous size, quadruple it and it will be one fourth. If I get a photo and have to remove, say, the background around a vehicle, I have to draw a mask. Since most digital photos from cameras are 72 ppi, I increase it to 300, so that I have more control. So, increase your resolution; it won't change the way your image looks, but you'll be able to cut a finer trap.
