How much you wanna bet?
What lpi do you use?
QuoteWhat lpi do you use? To who's post are you addressing? Is that Orion's or Yorkie's?
My one question is if the 3% is really what the art called for or just Orion's guess? It looks a lot more than 3% to my eye. If 3% is accurate, is Orion psychic? or involved? or what?Anyhow, the big question is of the moire is visible in the screen or only shows its ugly self when printed on a shirt?
I will add that we use 65 line art for our sim process. At more than 14 inches viewing distance it is hard to discern that there are dots much less a single or four angle set. I also believe at higher line counts mis-registration will be less noticeable.
The line count is 65lpi. Went back and had the artist pull up the seps file. The white base in the area Yorkie pointed out is at 7% and the reflex blue is at 44%. I need to go back and find my little chart of dot size in microns at various lpi's. You guys are probably right, moire caused by the substrate. But do you know when I hold the shirt in front of me and look at it, the moire is barely visible.

I think that misregistration will be worse with higher lpi - imagine we have same angle screens and a slight misregistration. The smaller (higher lpi) dots will be completely out of register with the other dots whilst the coarser dots will be partially covered.
btw Wasatch can produce any screen you want on the same film, just RIP before dropping onto the layout. I'll have a look. I can do the different screens in their process colour as well.
We used to be able to do this in Freehand in the beginning. Different dot shapes, different line screens. It was pretty cool and I made use of it back then.
If you mean Coudray, well yeah he is.
