Steve,
I would recommend that you contact a local dealer of AbsoluteProof and ask
them to provide you with a 1440 sample of a halftone proof.
I assure you that the results will be very surprising.
This is the highest quality halftone ink Jet proofing on the market a very
drastic change from the 720 resolution.
Capable of proofing FM Stochastic screening
Proofing Hybrid screening
Proofing Duotones
Capable of Matching over 90% of Pantone color below 3 delta E, using the
Extrachrome inks
Capable of driving multiple printers (of the same model) with only one
license
Capable of running 360 res backed up imposition proofs.
Capable of Proofing Hexachrome
A Mac driven solution and amazingly the most affordable halftone proofing
solution on the market.
For more information check our website or contact a local dealer.

Best regards,
