Greetings!

I am somewhat new to Photoshop (new Trialware version downloaded today) and have two quick questions:

1) What is the most efficient way to take a four/multicolored image and bring it down to two-color for printing… The two colors being Black & Blue

2) The photo is a higher quality JPEG… What is the best quality it should be saved to for professional printing?

Thank you very very much for any input!

Thank you,
Jimmy

1. Image > Mode > Grayscale, then Image > Mode > Duotone, pick your 2
colors.
2. Depends on the output device. A save ppi (dpi) is 300.
