K C
0 % is the best achievable factor, meaning the dot transfer is perfect, the horizontal
and vertical lines of the measurement patches have the same thickness and that
neither slur nor doubling effects are present. Values up around 5 % still are acceptable.
%-values higher than 10 % indicate significant geometrical errors in print due to slur
or doubling effects. There are no standard values for the maximum allowable %-factor.

3. The third measurement on a vertical lined
patch. After the measurement of the vertical
lines again the dot area of the patch is calcu-
lated and stored (see the following figure).
As a result the so-called Slur/Doubling
factor in % is displayed.
