Simulated Screen Printing
Simulated process printing is a technique that uses a limited number of ink colors to create a wide range of colors. It combines traditional spot colors with halftones and gradients to mimic the effect of full-color process printing. This technique is a great way to save on costs since only a few screens are created.
This is also sometimes referred to as “sim process” for short.
Pro Tip
This gradient is composed of just two colors (gold up top and purple on the bottom). The different shades you see are created using halftones.
