English term or phrase: Dot gain
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dot gain, or tonal value increase, is a phenomenon in offset lithography and some other forms of printing which causes printed material to look darker than intended. It is caused by halftone dots growing in area between the original printing film and the final printed result. In practice, this means that an image that has not been adjusted to account for dot gain will appear too dark when it is printed. Dot gain calculations are often an important part of a CMYK color model.

dot gain
punktförstoring


Explanation:
Det här torde handla om punktförstoring, se länken. Punktförstoringen brukar bli ganska påtaglig när man jämför tryck på bestruket respektive obestruket papper. På det senare sväller rasterpunkterna ut lite lättare och ger ett oskarpare eller lite suddigare intryck.
