In the early nineties FM screening(frequency-modulated screening, also called stochastic screening) caused a minor revolution in the trade. Proponents hailed it as the passport to a photographic quality in offset printing. On top of this the new screening technology gave rise to hopes of a more consistent and controllable printing process. 1, record 1, English, - frequency%2Dmodulated%20screening

Cette nouvelle technique de tramage laissait de plus escompter un processus d'impression plus constant, mieux maîtrisable. 1, record 1, French, - tramage%20par%20modulation%20de%20fr%C3%A9quence
