Features:
- Built-in halftone raster function for selected designs. Accuracy may be limited with dual-pass printing.
- Minor misalignments between print passes are technically possible. The software offers directional arrow adjustments to help compensate.
- For best results, use simple and bold graphics as shown in our sample images. For high-precision professional printing, we recommend:
Ghost Pro X Essential or Ghost Pro X
Depending on the design, there may be a slight misalignment between the two print passes ā this cannot be completely avoided. However, the software allows you to manually compensate for the shift using arrow adjustments, especially if you know in advance which direction your printer tends to misalign. We recommend using designs that are not too delicate, as shown in our example images, so that minor shifts are less noticeable. For most applications, this software adds real value. For users with higher demands on precision and alignment, we recommend our professional systems: Ghost Pro X Essential or Ghost Pro X.
