Standard image pattern, developer evaluation method for planographic printing plate using the standard image pattern, and quality control method for planographic printing plate using the standard image pattern

摘要

The invention provides a standard image pattern for controlling a process of making printing plates, having at least: a plurality of AM halftone images, each of which is formed of dots according to Amplitude Modulation Screening, and each of which has an area coverage that is different from that of the others; and a plurality of FM halftone images, which are formed of dots according to Frequency Modulation Screening, which are respectively adjacent to the plurality of the AM halftone images, and which have a predetermined area coverage. The invention further provides a method for evaluating a developer for a planographic printing plate using the standard developer and a method for controlling quality of a planographic printing plate using the standard developer.
