Default Halftone Angle for 35 lpi halftone in cs3

Can anyone recommend what angle i should be using with a 35lpi halftone. It looks weird like there are small squares all over the image filled with the halftone dots when i use 35lpi and 45 degrees. When i do it at 45 and 45 it looks fine. Will those squares go away when i print? Is there a formula or anything i should be using when doing different sized dots. Thanks.

45˚ should be fine, are you talking about the way it looks on the monitor or when you print the film out?

The way it looks on the monitor. Will that effect the print? I just don't want to waste printing material if I don't have to. Its a 1$ per sheet. Its not alot but it adds up.

it'll be fine then, if you zoom in you'll see that it the dots will look normal. you're getting a moire pattern with the dots and your monitors resolution.

25° for all spot color printing works great. Make sure you are using the right mesh

I ran a lot of test prints before hollering for help from the RIP guy. To completely eliminate moire patterns I finally came to use 45 line round, rotated to 22.5 on 230 mesh screens.
