Claim 0:
1. A method to generate a relief structure comprising the steps:
providing of a relief precursor comprising a substrate layer, at least one photosensitive layer and a mask layer,
receiving of a raster image file comprising image data for a plurality of pixels,
analyzing the image data of the raster image file;
determining control data, and optionally at least one new raster image file, based on the analyzed image data, said control data being data for controlling settings of an imaging device so as to change the physical properties of generated imaged features corresponding with one or more of the plurality of pixels;
outputting the raster image file and/or the new raster image file, with the control data to an imaging device for imaging a relief precursor;
imaging the relief precursor using the raster image file and/or the new raster image file, with the control data, such that an image is generated in the mask layer, and
exposing the imaged relief precursor to electromagnetic radiation through the imaged mask layer.
