Hi all,
Regarding Roger's comments...
Why would switching from AM to FM result in an ink savings?
You're putting down the same dot area, and that would result in
approximately the same amount of ink being put on the paper.
The only thing that changes is the formation of the tonal information:
a clump of machine spots vs. a pseudo-random distribution of the same
machine spots.
If you were to calculate the area of paper covered by ink per cell in
an AM halftone and compare that the area covered by ink per cell with
an FM screen, they should be the same, or very close, otherwise the
image would be different.
I am eager to hear the explanation.
Best wishes,
Brian P. Lawler
