I was hoping to hear from someone else besides a spammer :(

We are looking for a Napkin Manufacturer that can custom print for our current clientele. We would like for someone in Southern California but can be anywhere in the US.

Joe, Thank you for helping me locate my issue, I really appreciate it. Also like to thank everyone else for their input aswell.

Are you talking about the numbers for the linearization or for the press-curve?

Hello, Our company still uses film from our Agfa Phoenix 2000, we are having an issue where we are losing dots in the highlight area. I have calibrated the imagesetter to be linear and still losing Dots. My question is, if we set up our imagesetter to as close to a G7 press-curve, will this...
