frequency domain. The choices are “float”, “integer” (the default), and “fast integer”. • float: The float method is very slightly more accurate than the integer method, but is much slower unless your machine machines, while the integer methods should give the same results everywhere. • integer (the default): This method is faster than “float”, but not as accurate. • fast integer: The fast integer method is much verted into a series of bands. Indexed mode is not recommended for photographs because after the conversion, they typically look coarse and grainy. 68 CHAPTER 6. GETTING IMAGES OUT OF GIMP 6.2. PREPARING

convert the image to CMYK. Instead, save the image and switch over to Photoshop to make the CMYK conversion and other preparations for print. SOME FINAL NOTES We have not covered every single difference cropped duplicate of your image unless its aspect ratio exactly matches that of your screen. • Integer tiled: This option is nearly the same as Tiled. The difference is that there will be no cropped images represented in CMYK will therefore be converted to the nearest CMYK color. The success of the conversion depends on the software you’re using (that is, the printer driver, which is GhostScript in most

with painting functionality. Some can be converted easily into GIMP brushes, some require special conversion utilities, and some cannot be converted at all. Most fancy procedural brush types fall into the additional channel, the alpha channel. Each channel supports a range of intensity levels from 0 to 255 (integer valued). Thus, a black pixel is encoded by 0 on all color channels; a white pixel by 255 on all
