Printing[Windows/macOS]

To print toned manga or illustrations in monochrome, select the [File] menu → [Print Settings] and then select [Duotone (Threshold)] for [Expression color] in the [Print Settings] dialog box.

Configure the same settings from the [File] menu → [Export (Single Layer)] even if exporting in a general image format such as BMP.

On iPad, the printing function cannot be used.

 

Tips: Types of Duotone

When [Mask expression] → [Posterization] is set to [Yes] in [Tone] as an effect on the [Layer Property] palette, the mask can be blurred with gray posterization, but this effect cannot be printed in duotone. When printing in duotone, the result differs depending on whether [Duotone (Threshold)] or [Duotone (Toning)] is selected as the [Expression color] in the [Print Settings] dialog box.

Duotone (Threshold)

Dark areas are printed in black and light areas are printed in white, with brightness 50% as the threshold.

Duotone (Toning)

Posterization of opaque areas is toned according to the [Screen frequency] on the canvas.
