Default Re: Printing CMYK

Yeah, I know it sounds odd, but it's worked for me EVERY time! Besides, even when the angles are not the same, you still have dots overlapping each other, that's how you get all the various shades and tones. Process inks are transparent for that very reason. If you were to try this with opaque inks, you wouldn't get the same results.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that this is the only combination that works. Just that this is the one that's worked for me. I've been using it for the past 18 years of doing separations and I figure it's time to share the knowledge. It's up to you to try it or not, but trying to figure out screen angles is a PITA...!!!
