Hi,
two questions that are bugging me
1.) why does the paper cut (short vs. long grain paper) have an effect on weboffset machine built?
On the Goss website for example, the same machine Sunday 4000 has different speeds for long grain (up to 45,000iph) and short grain (up to 60,000 iph)
http://www.gossinternational.com/clientuploads/pdf/Datasheets_English/Sunday_4000_datasheet.pdf
2.) also why is the distinction short vs. long grain only made in commercial but not in newspaper? I gather that in commercial some things are better printed in long grain (posters?), others better in short grain (CD covers).
does it not matter in newspaper what grain direction is being used or is it always a certain grain?
thanks!!!
