HQH - High Quality Hinting

HQH (High Quality Hinting) improves the readability and the appearance of fine text and graphics in print.
Repro data is generally prepared using manual correction in line with specific engraving requirements. HQH automates this process by examining engraving data for fine lines and text and automatically optimizing these elements according to pre- set criteria.
Fine text thus remains readable and small graphics do not disappear in print.
Parametrization of HQH is done via job-ticket which has been generated by HelioDisk.
