Pressed turns your photos into real risograph and screen prints, entirely on your device.
Pressed turns your photos into real risograph and screen prints, entirely on your device.
Most "print" filters just lay a flat duotone over your photo. Pressed builds the print the way a real press does: it separates your image into spot inks, screens each ink as its own halftone at its own angle, overprints them in linear light so two inks mix into a believable color, and lets the paper stock show through. The result reads as a pulled print, because it is built like one.
WHAT IT DOES
- A full library of presses: one to four inks on real paper stocks, from crisp blueprint to warm three color.
- A custom palette editor: build your own press from any ink and paper, with per ink tonal control.
- Real paper under the ink: every sheet has its own tooth, and the ink skips the low points the way it does on an uncoated stock. Set how rough the paper is.
- Watch the press run: the sheet goes back to bare paper, then the plates land one at a time, lightest ink first.
- Authentic print physics: per ink halftone screens, registration drift, ink bleed, dot gain, and a density ceiling.
- Color separation by hue, live preview, and hold to compare with the original.
- Print ready separations: each ink as its own page in a PDF, with crop and registration marks, for a real riso or screen printer.
- Die cut stickers: lift the subject out and export a transparent sticker with a white keyline.
- Made for zines: press your pages, export them, and print the issue.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything runs on your device. Your photos never leave it. There is no account, no cloud, and no tracking.
Made for zine makers, sticker and poster artists, and anyone who loves the look of real ink on paper.
Press the art, lay out the issue, and take the pages to a riso shop or a copy shop.
Free exports carry a small Pressed mark and reach 4096 px. Removing the mark, exporting up to 6000 px, the print-ready separations, the die-cut stickers, and some presses are a one-time purchase, never a subscription.
