I think you have nailed it ! I have never heard of this process before but looking at the example in your link, that would certainly explain why the dots do not look like regular halftone dots and appear elongated ... or diamond shaped !

The only time I have encountered anything like this is when I forgot that I had left the caps lock on !

Thanks MDM, I will probably have to live with it as it is then ! I'm surprised it even runs the version Of Photoshop cc that it does then as I didn't realise the latest version needed that much more ... I guess I can manage with what I have for now !

Version 10.7.5, 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3, 2.5GHz Intel core i5, AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512MB, Mac OS X Lion ... ancient !!

Many Thanks MDM ... I'm still using the Mountain Lion that was installed on the Mac when I bought it !! I need to update the os so have downloaded it but not installed it as I haven't backed everything up yet in case it goes wrong ! I use Chrome now as Safari will not open much at all now but that needs updating as well ... but I can't update that either until I install the newer os !
