First Thermal Plate Tests at Tech Alert '98

There was no real difference among any plates in dot imaging consistency. The Kodak DITP, Fuji LH-P and Fuji LH-N plates had the broadest highlight to shadow dot range of 0.5 percent to 98 percent on the printed samples. The difference among the remaining plates was not appreciable. These same three plates exhibited the strongest line resolution of the printed samples as well.
