Re: [Digital BW] Matching the tone of lenswork magazine?

2005-07-26 by Carl Schofield

It does look quite close.  Also, the Pantone Tritone in Photoshop (Bl  
437 burgundy 127 gold) looks similar.  If you convert a grayscale to  
duotone mode, select this preset from the Pantone Tritones folder,  
then convert to RGB mode, and add a hue saturation adjustment layer  
with saturation set to -20 to -40 percent.  Another one is Ken Lee's  
bronze quadtone:
