Frequently Asked Questions

How do I apply Riso Print online?

Open the Riso Print preset, add your image or video, and adjust the loaded effect layers to suit your source. Preview the result before exporting.

What is risograph printing?

A Risograph uses a stencil-based printing process, with separate passes for colors. Calverts' print guide explains the process, overlaid inks, and registration variation. This preset recreates selected visual qualities digitally.

How does Riso Print differ from the Risograph effect?

The Risograph effect supplies the ink treatment. Riso Print adds Curves, multiple textures, framing, Hue Curves, and Texture Displacement around it, producing a more complete paper-print composition.

Can I change the ink palette and border?

Change ink choices in the Risograph layer. Adjust Transform for image size and framing, then inspect the texture overlays, which can affect the apparent paper tone and edges.

Is the exported image ready as color separations for a printer?

The preset produces a composited visual result. A physical print shop may require separate files for each ink and specific paper or registration preparation; use the artwork as a visual reference when discussing production.
