    Be careful about dot gain. Make sure you're using a good stock and ask your printers how much dot gain you can expect from your stock. You can always give them a sample of your photo printed from a photo printer at the brightness/contrast you want and ask them to match it. Regardless of your digital file the printers can adjust the darkness (to a small degree) on the press. At least if you give them a photo to match they know what to aim for.
