Frame

A color overlap created intentionally at a color border so as to

 

minimize the effects of misregistration. Also known as trap or grip.

 

See also Trapping.

Frequency modulated screens

A method of creating halftones where the spots are all the same size,

 

but the frequency or number of dot changes in a given area. There are

 

more dots in a dark area and fewer in a light area.

Frozen job

A job for which the appropriate paper stock is not available, for

 

example, the correct paper type, paper size or paper weight.

GCR

reducing the CMY amounts that produce the gray component in a

 

color, without changing the color hue.

Gravure printing

A printing method in which the image is engraved through a screen

 

below the surface of a cylinder. The ink is transferred to paper when

 

pressed to the cylinder. Gravure is used for very long print runs and

 

on many substrates.

Gray component

The amounts of CMY in a color, which result in neutral gray, based on

 

the lowest separation value of the color. See also GCR.

Grayscale

A scale of gray tones from white to black. Digitally, grayscale images

 

have up to 256 different levels of gray. See also 8 bit/1 byte image.

Halftone

A negative or positive image whereby detail of the image is

 

reproduced with dots varying area but of uniform density. Creates the

 

illusion of continuous tone when viewed with the naked eye.

Highlights

The whitest portions of the original or reproduction that have no

 

color cast. The highlight dot is ranged in the reproduction from the

 

smallest printable dot to approximately 25%. See also Midtones and

 

Shadows.

HSL

Abbreviation of Hue, Saturation and Lightness. This is a color model,

 

which specifies a color by its wavelength (Hue), chroma or purity of

 

the color (Saturation) and value of its brightness (Lightness).

portion of paper on which ink appears.
