How To Sharpen Images For A Business Card

Video Transcript

"Hello, My name is Darin Carter on behalf of Expert Village. Today I am going to show you how to design and promote your business card. Alright now that we have this all layed out the only thing that we really pretty much have to do now with the producing this business card is just finish the final touch ups. To make sure it actually prints out just nice and just neat and clear. We already changed the resolution from semi 2 to 300. And again there still could be some glitches with it. However, in Microsoft Word, it might already be set up that the sharpen is already accumulated with the program. However, just to make sure when we are doing our business card in fireworks it might have not covered the graphics we did in there and transferred over there. So we go back to fireworks just in case just before we start laying out all the business cards on the page. Must we get to fireworks we have that business card up and then from there we will go to filters at the top. Once we go to filters you will see where it says sharpen. A little sub categories will open up with sharpen, sharpen more, etc. We'll just go ahead and choose sharpen. From there it will say it will change all of the pictures to bitmap and that is fine. From there it will just be a bitmap picture. And from there you will see a little bit of a difference, you will see a little bit of rough edges around it. It will make it so crisp and clear for when it prints it like really stands out. So once that's all good we'll go ahead and export this from fireworks and import it back into Microsoft Word. From there we'll see that the pictures are lined up. We'll put all 10 on the page for the 8x10 print for home and we will talk about printing your business cards. "
