BacklightFly provides various output formats for you to choice. That can be classified as 4 type: same size, same pitch, line output, and analysis only. "Same size output" means the sizes of all dots are the same and density is adjusted by distances between dots. "Same pitch output" means the distances between center of dots are the same and density is adjusted by dots size. "Line output" is applied for laser engraved process.

Select right output format, and you can get best resuilt!

Output formats are also subdivided by different dot distribution mode. Based on your applications, you might select different dot distribution mode even if all by the same dot generating process. For example, when you use laser machine for process, "Fine Grained 3-Image mode" is good for shape images to get vivid result, but "Fine Grained 3-Light Guide Mode" is generally chose for light guide plate to get smooth dot distribution.

In "Same size" classification, the dot distribution modes are varied form regular arrangement. New arrangements will be resulted from disarranging regular distribution and re-calculating best positions of dots.

In "Same Pitch" classification, the concept is to define the size range of dots and to substitute for related density.
