Why you should complete this activity

The New Output from TIFF Template allows you to output 1-bit TIFF files. Given a prescreened 1-bit TIFF file, you can output a 1-bit prescreened (halftone) TIFF file and image it directly on plate.
Note: Because it may not be possible to output to plate, in this activity you will output to the Prinergy Virtual Proofing System software.
