Title: Sharpening for Print
Post by: HSakols on February 01, 2009, 11:55:13 am

Now that I'm using Lightroom for most of my printing, do I even need to bother with Charlie Cramer's sharpening actions.  I wondering if selecting sharpen for print in lightroom will work just as well.  I'm curious to hear from others who used to use PSD actions when sharpening for prints?

Try the output sharpening in Lightroom's print module. It works very well.

I second that - getting excellent results with LR's output sharpening.

Just make sure you have your capture sharpening optimal - as it all starts from there. Get that wrong and the print sharpening wont be optimal.
