Re: solarplate stochastic screen



What does one ask for in the way of specifications, % density, resolution etc?

Dear gravure folks... I got an email last night from Copygraphics, and
they believe they have the problem with the stochastic screens sorted
out.  Yay!

I have tried to find someone around here to make me one (a stochastic
screen), and came up empty.  it seems that even long established
printing shops have gone digital.  One place told me he gave his
imagesetter away a few months ago!  (and those things are lot of $$$$$
)  Another problem is that they aren't used to making stochastic
screens... that's a random dot pattern rendered by special software
that not all places even have available.

so... I highly advise getting a screen now from copygraphics and
taking good care of it.
