Re: Glossary of terms

2003-07-31 by Antonis Ricos

Luis...

there is no glossary, but you can scan the files section for some help, and then 
ask specifically about the abbreviations you can't figure out.

CIS = Continuous Ink System
BO = Black Only
bronzing = the result of too much pigment on glossy/semi glossy papers which 
makes a certain tonal range in the image shine like it was made of bronze 
when light hits in at an angle.

Hope this helps.
