Inluxc: by paths from PhotoShop and save (print to file) as EPS.
Then place EPS in PM. TIFF can also use paths, but I didn´t
test it.
The other method for uniform backgrounds in PM:
Create e.g. a logo and and a background in PhS.
Save as TIFF-1.
Use a small part of the background and save as TIFF-2.
Make large background in PM from upscaled TIFF-2.
Place TIFF-1 in PM on TIFF-2.
This helps saving file size for large backgrounds.
Do not use for this purpose background colors by numbers.
Printer may treat images/rectangles different
(photographic/colorimetric).
