IMAGE STRUCTURE
Print Grain Index
The Print Grain Index number refers to a method of
defining graininess in a print made with diffuse-printing
illumination. It replaces rms granularity and has a different
scale which cannot be compared to rms granularity
• This method uses a uniform perceptual scale, with a
change for four units equaling a just noticeable
difference in graininess for 90 percent of observers.
• A Print Grain Index rating of 25 on the scale represents
the approximate visual threshold for graininess. A
higher number indicates an increase in the amount of
graininess observed.
• The standardized inspection (print-to-viewer)
distance for all print sizes is 14 inches, the typical
viewing distance for a 4 x 6-inch print.
• In practice, larger prints will likely be viewed from
distances greater than 14 inches, which reduces
apparent graininess.
• Print Grain Index numbers may not represent
graininess observed from more specular printing
illuminants, such as condenser enlargers.
The Print Grain Index number listed in this publication
applies to the following standards:
Negative size: 24 x 36 mm
(135-size standard format)
Print Size in inches: 4 x 6
Print Size in centimeters: 10.2 x 15.2
Magnification: 4.4X
