In printing, resolution is how clear and detailed an image looks. It's measured in DPI (dots per inch).
For good quality prints, artwork data should have at least:
- 300 DPI for full-color and grayscale images
- 1200 DPI for monochromatic bitmaps
This ensures that images come out sharp and detailed. If the resolution is too low, like 72 DPI, pictures might look fuzzy or pixelated when printed.
Source data for:
- spot-lacquer (partial-lacquer)
- silkscreening
- etching
- embossing/debossing
- hot foil
...should also have resolution of at least 1200 DPI.
