in all common printing
techniques

- pH-neutral, outstanding fade
and age-resistance
Screens
For best possible results in offset printing, we recommend a line screen of
130 - 150 lpi. In some cases, particularly in dry offset, line screens of up to 200 lpi
could be chosen. When using special papers for four-colour reproductions it is very
important to adjust the lithos to the paper shade. We recommend proof printing on
the selected paperstock.
Printing
In general, EVER is suitable for all printing techniques.
However, the parafin finish on Rabat, Praha, Edinburgh and
Tikal requires special handling as noted below. When printing in offset,
very good results can be achieved on the different surfaces.
In order to minimize set-off, oxidative-drying inks should be used and high printing stacks
should be avoided. Aomori and Salzburg are very well suited for 4-colour reproductions.
However, the printer should take into account longer drying times for these papers.
Both are suitable for desktop-techniques.
Also Rabat, Praha, Edinburgh and Tikal
can be used in offset printing. However, these papers cannot absorb any ink and
special attention should be paid to the drying process. Rabat, Praha, Edinburgh and
Tikal have been parafined according to our original recipe.
Therefore printing techniques causing heat should be avoided. For harmonising paper
and printing machine, tests with the original paper should be made.
Special processes such as die-cutting, hot-foil stamping and blind embossing produce very
interesting results. When embossing the waxy papers, "milky" effects will occur.
GMUND papers and envelopes are very suitable for fountain inks.
All EVER papers are chlorine-free and acid-free, and pH neutral.
Thus the papers are very age-resistant.
