I'm using Corel 9 and an Epson 1200 printer. Since this is a simple job, I'm going to print a good quality proof onto glossy film so that plates can be made straight from it (without the need for a positive). The problem is that there is an area of even grey in my design. Is there a way of forcing the computer to print an even halftone instead of the error diffusion that it uses to print grey? What I want is to force the inkjet printer to print out a grey pattern that might have come from a laser printer. But I want to do this with the printer set at maximum resolution, so that the text comes out very crisp. If not, how do I select a pattern of dots small enough so that it looks like grey? Corel won't let me reduce the available "dots pattern" enough. Thanks in advance Antun
