The new edition of Advances in Printing Science and Technology Volume 24 is now available from Pira International.

Published by Pira on behalf of IARIGAI (The International Association of Research Institutes for the Printing, Information and Communication Industries) and edited by J.Anthony Bristow, the publication contains the conference proceedings of the 24th Research Conference of the International Association of Research Institutes for the Graphics Arts Industry held in London on 7-10 September 1997.

Included are 27 technical research papers from 60 leading world wide authorities in printing science research. The proceedings are divided into three sections.

Section 1

  • Improved productivity and image quality using a colour management system.

  • Initiative for colour profiles.

  • Comparison for colour management systems.

  • Performance of new digital proof systems.

  • How good are the calibration methods of digital printing systems?

  • Graphic arts colour filters for flat panel displays.

  • Colour fluctuations in offset printing.

  • Evaluation of multicolour print quality by image analysis.

  • Determination of the free edge of screen elements.

Section 2

  • Towards more effective work flows.

  • Workflow analysis in commercial printing ­ methods and results.

  • Evaluation of printing production in networks by means of computer simulation models.

  • Synergy in integrated publishing of printed and electronic newspapers.

  • When you take paper out of the system...

  • Multimedia as a prepress application.

  • The DP market in the year 2000.

  • LCA applied to the printing industry.

  • FOGRA's examination of the compatibility of detergents and wetting agents with various materials.

  • Computer-to-plate technologies in Russia.

Section 3

  • The effects of water in simulated offset and water-based gravure printing.

  • The effects of radio frequency treatment on wetting properties of lithographical dampening solutions.

  • Dynamic changes in web length ­ dependence on applied water, web tension and time.

  • A new method for the direct measurement of ink setting on coated paper.

  • A statistical study on runability parameters in printing presses.

  • Print quality achievable on different types of paper.

  • Methods of fuzzy logic for the description of trapping phenomena in offset printing.
