Abstract

A method for forming a flexographic plate for an image pattern including image features. The image pattern includes an array of image pixels, wherein the image pixels include printing pixels corresponding to portions of the image pattern where ink is to be printed on a substrate by the flexographic plate. Edge regions and interior regions of the image features are identified, which are separated by gap regions. A fine texture pattern is applied to the edge regions and a coarse texture pattern is applied to the interior regions to form a textured image pattern which is used to form the flexographic plate. No texture pattern is applied to the gap regions thereby leaving gaps between the edge regions and the interior regions of the image features.
