Summary:

The experimental results described in this paper are from two different tests conducted by GATF to compare the reproduction characteristics of stochastic screens with those of conventional halftone dots. A film duplication test was performed to compare the effects of exposure level on dot gain, and a press test was designed to measure several reproduction characteristics of stochastic and conventional screens under normal press operating conditions. The press test was run with both conventional and waterless lithography. The validity of the findings is limited to the specific printing systems and materials used.
