With two stochastic screens, Icefields enables offset, silk-screen, and photographers to produce stochastic screened images on an image-by-image and page-by-page basis. Icefields is not a typical RIP. It creates halftone documents for off-line and off-site reproduction.

Icefields is used by:

  1. Photographers use Icefields to produce imagesetter film for digital platinum and dye prints.

  2. Graphic designers place the Icefields TIFF on a page instead of the usual contone photograph, ensuring reproduction quality.

  3. Prepress operators use Icefields to solve moire and detail reproduction problems in that one troublesome photograph.


Benefits to commercial printers using Icefields:

  1. Reduces the amount of ink needed

  2. Provides a larger gamut than traditional halftones

  3. Eliminates moiré patterns

  4. Displays greater detail


Benefits to photographers:

  1. No pattern worms or voids

  2. No disturbing low frequency noise

  3. No unwanted sharpening or lost highlights

  4. Creates smoother gradients


Icefields is used for:

  1. Eliminating reproduction problems such as subject moire and capturing out of gamut colors

  2. Minimizing press reproduction problems such as miss-registration

  3. Screening images for contact darkroom photography

  4. Screening fifth colors and duotones made with Isis Locus
