Printing terminology
You’ll find printing technology easier to understand if
you’re familiar with the printing terminology discussed
on the next few pages.
Continuous-tone
art
An original photograph, drawing, or painting is called
continuous-tone art. If you look closely at continuous-
tone art, you will see that it consists of shades of gray
or color that blend smoothly. Scanned images that con-
tain a range of color tones are called continuous-tone
images.
Halftone screens
To reproduce continuous-tone images and process
colors on a commercial printing press, the image or
color must be broken into a series of dots of various
sizes and colors, called a halftone screen. Black dots
are used to re-create black-and-white images. Cyan,
magenta, yellow, and black dots are printed at different
screen angles to re-create color images on the press.
The four colored dots form a rosette pattern when cor-
rectly registered.
When printed, small halftone dots make up lighter
areas of an image while larger halftone dots make up
sizes and colors, called a halftone screen. Black dots
are used to re-create black-and-white images. Cyan,
magenta, yellow, and black dots are printed at different
screen angles to re-create color images on the press.
