Clipart Modes:
Standard
- This mode is the default mode and will be used for most engraving
jobs that include text and clipart at 600 DPI.
Brighten
– Many users find this mode good for engraving photographs onto
wood or marble at 600 DPI.
Low Res
- Adds an artistic half-tone type look to the engraving.
Photograph Modes:
Floyd-Steinberg
– Produces an almost wave-like pattern to an image. This
works well for some photos containing a great deal of detail. Photos with more
monotone swatches of color may not be as pleasing as Jarvis or Stucki modes.
Jarvis
– Many users find this mode good for engraving photographs at 300 DPI.
This mode produces a very nice looking pattern on almost all photos.
Stucki
- This mode produces results that are only marginally different than the
Jarvis dithering pattern. It is also very good for engraving photographs at 300
DPI. The differences between Jarvis and Stucki are very subtle.
Dithering is a great way to enhance your engraved products, but it can be
frustrating sometimes because the look that is achieved will be different from one
material to the next. A graphic image that looks good on wood may not look as
good on plastic. Give yourself some time to experiment with the different
dithering patterns. It’s easy to do and once you have a feel for it, you will be able
to use it with confidence!
