Do Use RGB Gray and Not Transparency
Posted by Laser Tech on
One major misstep in file setup includes adding a transparency to lighten RGB black (0,0,0) to RGB gray (128,128,128) or (230,230,230) or RGB white (#FFFFF). This will not result in lighter etching. The laser does not recognize transparency. The laser will etch RGB black no matter what grade of transparency you use.
Don't use a transparency to lighten RGB black!
Instead, setup a color palette in your vector editor. This will save you time!
