High Definition Printing Services

At no additional cost, Whitley now routinely provides our customers with this advanced screening technique. Resulting in sharper images with finer details, near photographic quality for halftones and more consistent tones and process colors.

Instead of the conventional screening process that converts tones and images into equally spaced dots of varying sizes (amplitude modulation or AM screening), our high-definition screening process randomly places dots throughout the image surface (frequency modulation or FM screening). Coupled with our straight-to-plate screening capabilities, we can increase the “normal” 175-line resolution to an over 400-line equivalent, allowing us to reproduce extremely fine detail across a broader spectrum of colors.
