Lenticular printing software. Thread starter Baccarda Start date Apr 20, Baccarda New member. Hello everyone Does anyone know a free software to make Lenticular prints? I've found a couple on the internet, but they all are expensive Thanks in advance.

Baccarda said:. Click to expand There's no such thing. Part 4 of the Tutorial series explains image rescaling, color management or anisotropic resolutions special for lenticular. Create amazing 3D lenticular effects easily with Imagiam's professional tools.

Part 5 of the Tutorial series explains step-by-step how to prepare the files and adjust the depth, global parallax and focus point settings to obtain an extraordinary 3D perception in the final prints. Imagiam is the most advanced software for 3D lenticular effects generation by means of depth mapping techniques.

Part 6 of the Tutorial series explains how to build the most elaborate volumetric 3D effects and map flip and animation effects onto 3D surfaces quickly and easily.

Tested by the most demanding 3D lenticular artists in the industry. Assuming your program will present a dialog to the users to collect the printer resolutions and number of pictures to be taken, you will need to loop through the pictures and for each picture to loop through the correct column intervals for extracting the stripes corresponding to the specific picture. The pseudocode of your program will look like.

Ideally the more pictures, the smoother the final image will be. But if you have less than 18 pictures then you can scale down any number of pictures as long as it is an integer. Create a new Photoshop file with the same size as the pictures taken.

Cut and paste the pictures into Photoshop in the right order with the first picture as the bottom layer. Make sure the order is correct. Resize the image to dpi, the resolution of the inkjet printer. Also adjust the final printed size to a reasonable dimensions, say 8-in across to fill almost the width of a letter size paper.

But remember, this size is still not final as we will need to crop the image later to account for the binocular disparity shift. Adjust the level of individual layer to make them more consistent. You do not want the final print to be brighter from one angle and darker from the other unless that is intentional. If you can avoid using flash light during the shooting then most likely you can skip this step.

Try to shoot your pictures under natural sun light but not in the middle of the day when the sun is too strong. Identify a spot or area on each layer that should be aligned to the same coordinate.

This step is so important and the success or failure of the print has a lot to do with whether this step is done correctly or not. In Photoshop, we can work from the lowest layer up.

First turn off the visibility of all layers except the lowest and the one layer above it, i. Layer 1 and Layer 2. Use the [Move] tool to move Layer 2 so that the pot in Layer 2 is superimposed on the pot in Layer 1. When Layer 18 is aligned with Layer 17 then this tedious task is done. Once the alignment for the total 18 layers is done you will notice that layer 18 has shifted quite a lot to the right. Now you can use the [Crop] tool to resize the picture.
