Ed #2 Quadtones
Quadtones Look Best on Coated Paper
Like just about all four-color images, quadtones look best on coated paper. That’s because the hard, relatively nonporous surface of coated paper holds each halftone dot precisely, without allowing it to run into other dots or be absorbed into the capillaries of the paper. This superior dot holdout–and reduced dot gain–means that each layer of ink can precisely filter the light that strikes the surface of the paper and reflect back clean, unmuddied colors and tones. And we’re not just saying that because we make the world’s finest coated paper. It’s the law–of physics.
You can find the right kind of coated paper for practically every project, and different coated paper finishes help you achieve different things. Gloss allows you to print highly reflective art, such as photography, with the greatest possible clarity and sharpness of detail. Dull combines lower light reflection with better readability and uniform print smoothness. Our glare-free, easy-to-read, matte has a rich, tactile quality as well as increased bulk, to help add more substance to the project.
