    The document discusses dampening systems used in lithography printing. It aims to create an even and thin water film through reducing surface tension and improving affinity while avoiding bad effects by controlling alcohol content, chemical concentration, and temperature of the dampening solution. The ideal system is long lasting, tolerant of slight maladjustment, and sounds alarms for over temperature, low or high alcohol content, or low or high conductivity but does not mention pH.
