Printing technique Recess printing on dull luminescent paper ("xxxDF" = "xxxDull Fluorecence")

discourse:
- "Luminescence“ = collective name for the effect of due light created by electrons at the transition from a higher energy level to an lower
- "Fluorescence“ = "Luminescence" without time deceleration
- "Phosphorescence" = "Luminescence" with time deceleration
This time deceleration can be in nano-seconds until to hours, want you set a border between both effects?
