The image I am prepping will be printed stochastically - is the output sharpening the same as traditional halftone?


Thanks

Hey there? Hello? Any pixel geni out there?

I checked the manual - it only mentions stochastic once and this is in regards to "why sharpen".

So por favor, is sharpening for stochastic printing the same as for standard halftone?

thanks

Stochastic is generally all over the place?a great deal depends on the spot size. If you're sending halftone-like resolutions (around 200 ppi and up), the halftone sharpeners should work well. If you're using lower resolutions, one of the lower-rez Contone sharpeners may be more appropriate.
