Default Re: photos for silk screen

I would just print the original artwork to a postscript printer. You can specify the halftone setting in Photoshop. I was never able to get a decent result by converting to bitmap with a specified LPI. It worked, but the halftone quality was pretty bad compared to the output on a PS printer.
