Ink densities always have to be increased to achieve good colour, match proof especially black solids when running overall matte AQ coating. The problem is dot gain goes from say 18% to 25% for C,M,Y and from 20 to 35% for black, so the screens look much darked than the proof while the solids look good. Does anyone know the best way to tackle this? Do all matte AQ coating have this characteristic of knocking back colour? Should I have a different plate curve for jobs with matte coating? The only problem is, I'll still be running a lot of ink on the rollers to achieve the colour with the matte. I'm open to any suggestions.
