And the answer is still NO! Neither Adobe, Microsoft, nor Apple have any plans to put "global" screening settings back into the PostScript drivers. It was a big mistake to put them there in the first place because their use typically didn't achieve what the end-user thought they would get from them. Most desktop and network PostScript laser printers ignore such screening settings unless you know magic incantations that you mutter at the printer's front panel. For imagesetters, platesetters, PDF workflow RIP systems, etc., screening is typically a global or per-job option set at the console. - Dov
