LPI Question for Solid Prints

(1/1)

screenxpress:
I manage my LPI settings for halftones, but do not change defaults for solid colors.  My Corel defaults to 80.  Is there a recommendation for LPI when its a solid (100%) spot color or is 80 okay to leave alone?

kidink:
No need to worry about LPI when processing solid spot colour jobs. LPI will only come in to effect when dealing with grey values from 1% - 99%

I do however prefer to run my solid jobs at an angle of 45 as opposed to 22.5

Thanks

Sbrem:
I print from Illustrator, and if a color doesn't have any gray, that is, is 100%, I leave the parameter alone, as it's a moot point.

I had never messed with it on 100% spot colors and wondered if I should have.  Thanks
