• Think about what kind of images you want to color test. The goal is to use images that represent the type of work you’ll be doing

• Click Start an Order and fill out the relevant information in the window that appears. When finished, click OK, and then select all images you want to use in the navigator/file explorer that appears before clicking Open

• You’ll see the images you selected appear in the Lightbox on the right-hand side of your screen. The left-hand side of the screen is the Catalog, where you can locate the products or services you wish to apply to the images in your Lightbox
• In the Catalog, select Calibration > Calibration Reference Prints
• Fill out the Contact Information in the text spaces back in the Catalog section
• Select all of your images in the Lightbox (press Ctrl+A to select All), and drag them into the workspace at the center of your screen. The images you have should snap into place within the workplace

• Click Add to Order. You should see your images zoom into the Order tab. Select that tab, and review your order. If everything looks good, click Finalize Order. In the window that appears, click on the right arrow button to navigate past the different options and select what you need in order to Upload your order to H&H.
• Once the order has been fully processed, you will receive two sets of prints: the uncorrected prints, and the corrected prints (set to the H&H color standard here in the lab)
