Abstract

Considering the translucency of paper and the non-optical contact between the paper and the backing, this study aims at modeling light scattering in order to improve the prediction of the reflection spectra of photoengraving prints, to fetch the explicit expression around the empty space between the printing materials, and to determine the reflectance of the dot parts and photoengraving printing materials in accordance with measure the MTF of paper and calculate point spread function of paper. Furthermore, a new algorithm for color prediction is established. Compared with the practically checked spectral reflectivity of the photoengraving printing materials proof by using spectrophotometer, the precision of the model shown in this paper is greatly verified.
