Classified Quantization Research on Dot Gain Characteristic

Abstract:

Dot gain divides into physical and optical dot gain. These two parts constitute the comprehensive dot gain in the process of printing. Ink spreading on the surface of paper is used for the analysis of physical dot gain and light scattering function model is used for optical dot gain. Trace the dots on the CTP plate and offset printing proof to analyze the influence of image micro-parameters caused by dot gain. Physical and optical dot gain are quantized to research the correlation between dot gain and shape of dot. It shows that: optical dot gain of AM dot accounts for a larger proportion; dot gain of all types has no relation with shape of dot. Besides, physical dot gain of FM dot accounts for a larger proportion than optical dot gain.
