It is important to avoid anti-aliasing (gray parts) in a black-and-white comic manuscript!Īnti-aliasing can also be annoying when adding tones, so be careful of it. If you have seen fanzines where the lines have halftone dots, or the ends of the lines are cut in a strange way, the reason is anti-aliasing. * Please read the following article to learn about expression colors.

Due to digital technology, the appearance of unintentional moiré has increased. Moiré is caused by the inexact overlaying of tones, meaning that the screen frequency or tone angles do not match. Feel free to create and use these patterns whenever you want. However, the intentional overlaying of patterns is not thought of as moiré but simply a pattern.
