FilmMaker RIP = Really Impressive Prints!

Create top quality film positives from your desktop printer

FilmMaker RIP is a PostScript interpreter that makes it possible to print high-quality halftone dots on an Epson inkjet printer. FilmMaker RIP tells the printer to lay down a much denser deposit of black ink, creating an image quality similar to imageset output. The halftone dots are carefully calibrated - if you specify a 50% dot, you get exactly that on the film!

Print directly from Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Corel Draw, Freehand or EasyArt. There are no additional steps or confusing commands. Specify the halftone line count and angle just as you always do and press print as normal!

When you burn screens using clear film with crisp, sharp black images, you will find they expose much better and there is no need to adjust exposure times.

When it comes to high-end multi-colour screen printing, the production of high quality colour separations is an absolute must. Screen printing is inherently different from other printing processes, hence the need for software designed by industry experts that understand the process and how to get the best from it.

Why is FilmMaker RIP so special?

It really is the easiest to use software.
Faster print times, higher density films using our unique, patent pending approach to variable dot printing! Ifyou are not sure what variable dot printing is, then take a look here
99% of people use either Corel Draw!™ , Adobe Illustrator™ or Adobe PhotoShop™ for their design work. With FilmMaker you can send the job to FilmMaker directly from these design applications with a single click!
