After a disappointing result from a factory color separation (top photo), I was asked to revise the file (bottom photo).

I added midtones to enhance depth, softened highlights for better color saturation, and adjusted the drop shadow to match the shirt color.

Resubmits can be costly. Fortunately, I caught this issue early. Often, printers are blamed for poor results when the real problem lies in the artwork. Addressing these issues in the artwork is usually the quickest and most cost-effective solution.
