Maxtone
screen types are based on the Prinergy AM
(conventional or rational tangent) screening technology.
○
The
Maxtone CX
screen type is configurable. To
configure the size of highlights and shadow dots, type
values in the
Dot Width Highlights
and
Shadows
boxes.
○
The
Maxtone NX
screen type is also configurable. To
configure the size of highlights and shadow dots, select
values from the
Dot Size Highlights
and
Shadows
lists.
Note: It is also possible to select the dot size for the highlights and
shadows using DotShop Composer. Maxtone NX works on the
entire page, so all objects defined with Maxtone NX must have
dots of the same size. If there are multiple dot sizes selected, the
output process will fail.
○
Maxtone IS
screen types are used for seamless sleeve
and cylinder output device applications. If you select
Maxtone IS
, the resolution set in the
Render
section of
the process template must be identical to the resolution
in the IS screen system. Most IS screen systems are
predefined in the IS screen set and cannot be modified in
the process template. For information about defining IS
screen sets, see the
Prinergy System Administration Guide
.
To see how items in the list of IS screen systems can be
hidden, see the topic about hiding IS screen sets.
