Re: Piezo software -- switching to MIS FS inks

2002-05-10 by jrandall1149

Stephan:

You could try the 1160 partitioned RGB workflow for the MIS FS inkset.

It's posted here at

Files> Ink Sets reviews and techniques> MIS FS> 1160 Partitioned 
Workflow.

or on the MIS ( www.inksupply.com )Quad workflow pages

The partitioned workflow should yield dot free light tones from 0% to 
about 30% (where the medium gray ink kicks in).  It also often 
eliminates the banding that some folks report with the Woolf lumped 
RGB workflow in the dark end.

Thanks.

Jeff Randall
