Printing & Publishing / Instructions for use of logo
French term or phrase: tramées
Hello,
This comes from a document detailing how a logo for a seed company may be used:
Teinte
Sa teinte est à choisir parmi les couleurs d'accompagnement tramées ou non... le gris léger et le blanc.
I have found the translation "screened", I'm not sure whether that's correct here or in fact exactly what it means in practice,
many thanks in advance
