Screen Ruling / LPI

[Ddog]

Quick question.. What sort of LPI are you using for process color that is printed on uncoated paper? Anyone having success with 175 - 200 lpi?

We're using a 5 color 20 x 28 Komori with Kodak Thermal Direct plates.

Thanks!

You can use 175-200 lpi and higher (including FM screening) with uncoated paper. You just need to create a dot gain compensation curve that gets applied to the plate for your uncoated paper work.
