Hi Ritchis Your summary is correct. The intention is that the entered values for "Actual" are those that were measured from the printed result using the consistent (linear) plates. The values in "Target" represent what the desired result would be and would normally be taken from a defined...

Hi Hokage If you are already running a 250# AM for magazine work then you should have no problem running Co-Res at the same lpi. If you wish to run a fine screen e.g. above 200# then there are traditionally some challenges: 1. More dot gain 2. Problems holding highlight and shadow detail 3...
