Catalog Printing Methods

February 28th, 2009 at 07:21pm Under Printing

We cannot deny the fact that catalog is now a soaring industry. Nowadays, catalogs are considered one of the useful tools in advertising and marketing. It can be used to give information to customers and to show pictures of products that can be purchased. In some cases, catalogs will show services that can be offered by certain businesses as well.

You can choose to print your own material catalog or be aided by a professional service. It is still best to use a professional printer if you are creating a large catalog with lots of pictures. However, you can still print catalogs at home if you have the right equipments, including computer programs, paper, and a high-quality printer.

Catalog is more difficult and lengthy in procedure compared to pamphlet or brochure . The reason to this is that it has many pages and each page must be designed to show different products, services, prices and company information. It can be a tedious process thus, it is still best to get hold of a professional printer rather than just experimenting on your own.

Four is mostly used by services and commercial printers. This is because this kind of generates the most clear, vibrant and crisp images. Examples of this kind of can be seen in magazines such as Time, People and National Geographic.

There are several methods used in catalog . The first on is the web press. A web press is an offset press that uses a roll of paper rather than sheets of paper. The use of a roll of paper allows quicker . There are two types of web presses the heat-set and cold-set.

A heat-set web press is the standard catalog and magazine press. It has a heating unit that dries the printed ink as it exits the press. This press allows high speed on coated papers such as gloss. It also produces brilliant, crisp photo reproduction for catalogs. Heat-set web presses are huge, complicated presses that necessitate several people to operate and setup. It is only reasonable to use this type of press for print runs of 10,000 copies or more and in increments of 8 pages, preferably 16. Ninety nine per centum of all mail-order catalogs are printed on this type of press.

Cold-set web press, on the other hand, does not include a heating unit so the printed ink must air dry. This press can only print on uncoated papers which allow the ink to absorb into the paper. Cold-set web press produces a fairly dull, fuzzy photo reproduction for catalogs. This kind of press is smaller and simpler than heat-set web presses, costing less and requiring less setup time. This can be a good press for very small quantity catalog print runs starting at 1,000 copies.

Another method of catalog is the sheet-fed press. This press is a customarily low volume press that prints on pre-cut sheets of paper. Because of its more precise method a sheet-fed press produces the sharpest of these three press types. It can print on a wider variety of paper weights. However, because of its sluggish speed it is the most costly of all the print methods. Sheet-fed press is commonly used for small print runs or job which necessitates the most excellent .

I love reading. Give me a book and I'll finish it in one sitting. Reading is the chance to be transported to a different world and so is writing. I'm more enthusiastic about writing however, since you can relay your ideas to someone else. I can only imagine that feeling when I hear a complete stranger talking about my ideas which read on an article somewhere. To relay my message to as many people is the same as touching people with music. Only mine's less harmonic. I try to make up for it with the I bring with words. And most of the time, its more than enough.

Printing Techniques For Printmaking

February 27th, 2009 at 06:03am Under Printing

We may not be aware how these books, newspaper, magazines and other materials have come to reality. We just know how to use it and get benefited from it. While, knowing the processah for many of us knowing the process is just a waste of time. But looking back at the procedures will gives us more ways to value the materials we have especially the books.

Printmaking is a process for producing a work of art in ink; the work (called a "print") is created indirectly, through the transfer of ink from the surface upon which the work was originally drawn or otherwise composed. The artist determines how many prints are to be made in an edition, usually signing and numbering each one (and sometimes separately producing one or more artist's proofs. Depending on the complexity of the process chosen, the artist may work in conjunction with an expert printmaker, and make use of a press, a baren, a brayer, and/or a squeegee.

And performing this printmaking can be done in the following techniques. The most popular are the woodcut, etching, lithography, and screen-. Other printmaking techniques include chine-coll, collography, monotyping, engraving, drypoint, mezzotint, linocut, aquatint and batik. These techniques can also be combined.

Woodcut, this type of relief print is thought to be the earliest printmaking technique, dating back to 9th century China. The artist draws a sketch on a plank of wood and then uses sharp tools to carve away the parts of the block that he/she does not want to receive the ink. The raised parts of the block are inked with a brayer and then a sheet of paper, perhaps slightly damp, is placed over the block. The block is then rubbed with a baren or spoon, or is run through the press.

Etching is part of the intaglio family (along with engraving, drypoint, mezzotint, and aquatint.) Etching prints are generally linear and often contain fine detail and contours. Lines can vary from smooth to sketchy. A waxy acid-resist, known as a ground, is applied to a metal plate, most often copper. After the ground has dried the artist uses a sharp tool to scratch into the ground, exposing the metal. The plate is then completely submerged in an acid that eats away at the exposed metal. This process is known as biting. The waxy resist protects the acid from biting the parts of the plate that have not been scratched into. The longer the plate remains in the acid the deeper the incisions become. The plate is removed from the acid and the ground is removed with a solvent such as turpentine. The entire plate is inked. A wad of cloth is often used to push the ink into the incised lines. An etching is opposite of a woodcut in that the raised portions of an etching remain blank while the crevices hold ink. The surface is wiped clean with a piece of stiff fabric known as tarlatan or newsprint paper. The wiping leaves ink only in the incisions. A damp piece of paper is placed over the plate and it is run through the press.

Lithography a technology that dates back to 1798 when Alois Senenfelder developed a method of imaging limestone from which a print was produced. Based on the principle that oil and water do not mix, an or plastic plate is coated with a photopolymer film that is exposed to light through a photographic mask. The exposed areas are chemically "hardened," and the unexposed areas are dissolved when the plate is put through a chemical process, which is the next stage. When a page, the plate is dampened, and the water adheres only to the unexposed, non-image areas, which repell the greasy ink that is applied to the plate immediately thereafter.

Screen- also known as "silk-screening" or "serigraphy" creates bold using a stencil technique. The artist draws an image on a piece of paper or plastic film can also be used.) The image is cut out creating a stencil. (Keep in mind the pieces that are cut away are the areas that will be colored.) A screen is made of a piece of fabric (originally silk) stretched over a wood frame. The stencil is affixed to the screen. The screen is then placed on top of a piece of dry paper or fabric. Ink is then placed across the top length of the screen. A squeegee (rubber blade) is used to spread the ink across the screen, over the stencil, and onto the paper/fabric. The screen is lifted and the image is now transferred onto the paper/fabric. Each requires a separate stencil. The screen can be re-used after cleaning.

See how difficult it is to produce a material. However, nowadays with the continuous innovation for the technology, is just a click away. But the process itself is a complex procedure to follow. You need expertise and knowledge in the field. So its very important to appreciate and give value to the materials we have because life and death is at risk before it began.

Digital Camera For Digital Printing

February 21st, 2009 at 12:03am Under Printing

The world is going digital and people are crazy bout the hi-tech gadgets available in the market. But significantly paving the way is one of the hottest consumer products of the 21st century – the digital camera. Most people want to capture and store their precious moment forever in a form of pictures. And photography plays an important role in this business.

Digital photography has evolved over the past few years into a highly affordable luxury that some could not be without and cannot afford to loose it. If you are new to the world of digital cameras, let Office Shop Direct be your guide to their large array of product specifications.

Price ranges are a very big consideration and are mainly based on high-end specifications such as resolution, compression and zoom options. Cutting corners on some of these details will save you in the long run, but you should be sure what you are missing out on before you make that decision.

Important Items to Keep in Mind about Digital Camera Technology:

Interpolation is a method in which a camera will fill in the holes in the pixels of a picture by estimating blends. While this can improve resolution, it will also reduce the sharpness and contrast of a picture. Never get a camera that is low in resolution but high in interpolation if you want sharp bright pictures.

Compression routines are the way the picture is stored digitally. Some companies maintain their own proprietary compression method, and this can make sharing images difficult. JPEG is the standard, but also as with most standards can have less clarity in a picture. Consider cameras that also offer the ability to print off images at no compression for best results.

SLR is short for single-lens reflex viewfinder. Many cameras have two views: that which the user sees to set up the shot, and that which the camera sees. If you have an SLR camera both what you see and what the camera shoots are lined up as one, and not slightly off on a different angle.

Having an amazing photo shot is easy; following the above mentioned important tips will surely give you an exceptional picture. Capture your best moment with best digital camera and quality application.

Screen Press Printing: Looking At The Process

February 9th, 2009 at 10:42pm Under Printing

Screen also called silk screen print also called serigraph was invented in the Far East around 2000 years ago. No supplemented data on when or where exactly it originates, but originally used to make the screen printer's screen. A paper stencil was stiched onto the screen to control the print area.

Around a hundred years ago screen was reinvented in the west and it has become a common method of on textiles. Most common, the custom t-shirts. The screens used for screen custom t shirts, are made with a mono filament mesh. Photopolymer emulsion is used to make the stencil. Thus, silk screen is coated with the liquid emulsion, and allowed to dry and harden. The emulsion is light sensitive. The stencil is made in the "silk screen" by placing a positive of the print over the coated silk screen then exposing the screen to light. The areas of the screen shielded from the light remain water soluble and can be washed out of the screen. The light affects the emulsion in that once the dried emulsion has been exposed to light, water will not dissolve it. Take a look at the photograph to the left. In this case the positive for the screen print is hand drawn.

The availability of the screen products can be purchased locally from screen process supply stores. An "emulsion cup" is used to coat the silk screens with emulsion. The emulsion cup is a trough like cup that holds the liquid emulsion and allows it to be spread evenly across the screen. The screen is held vertically and the emulsion is spread from bottom to top with one smooth motion. After the silkscreen has been coated with emulsion it will be left to dry. Ambient or soft light can expose the screen but it would take hours or days. Even so care should be taken that the silk screen is kept in a dark place.

To "burn" a screen, the positive must make tight contact with the screen. A four inch thick foam rubber pad is placed under the screen with the glass placed on top. Sunlight can now expose the silk screen. It can take anywhere from around two to fifteen minutes. After the screen has been exposed it is taken to a wash out area usually a metal bathtub like trough or large sink. The screen is set in the trough and sprayed with a garden hose. Rinsed with water, after a second the design will be visibly lighter in the emulsion. After a minute or so of rinsing the design area should be free of emulsion. Rinsing is continued for another minute or so to wash away emulsion scum that if allowed staying in the screen and dry will clog areas. The washed out screen is then allowed to dry.

After it has dried the screen must be taped off. This is usually done with masking tape. The areas around the edges not coated with emulsion are taped front and back. The screen printer applies tape liberally over the frame and screen areas. The screen is then "pin holed". Sometimes imperfections in the screen process cause tiny "pin holes" in the emulsion thats why these must be taped over or blocked with emulsion or block out fluid. This is done on the bottom of the screen.

The emulsion can be removed from the screens so that the screens can be reused. This is called "reclaiming" the screen. After the print run the ink is scraped out of the screen and mineral spirits or ink wash is used to clean the ink from the screen. All the masking tape is pulled off the screen and the screen is sprayed with emulsion remover. This chemical is left on the screen for 2 or 3 minutes and a high pressure sprayer or even a garden hose can be used to wash away the emulsion. After the emulsion has been removed the screen must be degreased. There are degreasing liquids available also ivory soap works well. The screen is scrubbed thoroughly on both sides and then rinsed. It can now be dried and if kept clean reused. The screens must always be clean and degreased and dry before they can be coated with emulsion.

These procedures may sound very difficult but the application is totally easy. See and try the screen yourself!

It was during this time when I realized that I needed to be more efficient in writing because duty called for it. I should say that this event in my life opened me wholly to the wonderful world of writing.

With all these, I cant say that I have mastered writing because of these writing experiences. I believe that this craft is also a continuous learning process. Ive been working hard to become amore efficient and competent in writing, most especially now that Im working as a content writer for this company. Im doing articles for companies, medical sites, legal sites, and many more.

Printing Press Development

December 25th, 2008 at 03:33am Under Printing

There are a lot of new technologies used in the press industry. Make it from simple to very complicated machines that for sure will lead to the transformation of services. And even more, latest technologies are still innovating for faster and accurate results.

The original method of was block , pressing sheets of paper into individually carved wooden blocks usually called(xylography). It is believed that block originated in China and the earliest known printed text, the Diamond Sutra (a Buddhist scripture), was printed in China in 868 A.D. The technique was also known in Europe, where it was mostly used to print Bibles. Because of the difficulties inherent in carving massive quantities of minute text for every block, and given the levels of peasant illiteracy at the time, texts such as the "Pauper's Bibles" emphasized illustrations and used words sparsely. As a new block had to be carved for each page, different books was an incredibly time consuming activity.

After the block another technique was been introduced, the moveable clay and metal type are processes much more than hand copying. The use of movable type in was invented in 1041 AD by Bi Sheng in China. Sheng used clay type, which broke easily, but eventually Goryeo (Korea) sponsored the production of metal type (a type foundry was established by the Korean government in the early 15th century). Since there are thousands of Chinese characters (Koreans also used Chinese characters in literature), the benefit of the technique is not as apparent as with alphabetic based languages. Movable type did spur, however, additional scholarly pursuits in Song China and facilitated more creative modes of . Nevertheless, movable type was never extensively used in China until the European style press was introduced in relatively recent times (thus bringing the technology full circle).

Although probably unaware of the Chinese/Korean methods. Gutenberg refined the technique with the first widespread use of movable type, where the characters are separate parts that are inserted to make the text. Gutenberg is also credited with the first use of an oil-based ink, and using "rag" paper introduced into Europe from China by way of Muslims, who had a paper mill in operation in Baghdad as early as 794. Before inventing the press in 1440, Gutenberg had worked as a goldsmith. Without a doubt, the skills and knowledge of metals that he learned as a craftsman were crucial to the later invention of the press.

From the different pioneering inventors of the press, nowadays high-tech machines are also invented to to help upgrade the industry when it comes to fast, efficient and credible result of services. The press certainly initiated an "information revolution" on par with the Internet today. could and did spread new ideas quickly and with greater impact.

A Closer Look At The Printing Press History

December 25th, 2008 at 03:33am Under Printing

Are you a reader enthusiast? Well if you do for sure you have a better gratitude for the press services. The benefits it gives us made us luckier that we can now preserve and duplicate our books and other papers alike without using the conventional means of . But thanks a lot to this process for transformation in world had come to its fullest development.

Before anything else, did you know where press first originates? And how does it help the people? To further understand the essence of press lets have a closer look at its history.

Basically, is the process of making multiple copies of a document by the use of movable characters or letters. This process was actually developed independently in China and Europe. Before the invention of , multiple copies of a manuscript had to be made by hand, a laborious task that could take many years. made it possible to produce more copies in a few weeks than formerly could have been produced in a lifetime by hand. Invented by Johann Gutenberg in c1450, the press made the mass publication and circulation of literature possible. Derived from the presses farmers used to make olive oil, the first press used a heavy screw to force a block against the paper below.

The operator worked a lever to increase and decrease the pressure of the block against the paper. The invention of the press, in turn, set off a social revolution that is still in progress. The German pioneer Johannes Gutenberg solved the problem of molding movable type. Once developed, spread rapidly and began to replace hand-printed texts for a wider audience.

Thus, intellectual life soon was no longer the exclusive domain of church and court, and literacy became a necessity of urban existence. The press strengthens intellectual fires at the end of the Middle Ages, helping usher in an era of enlightenment. This great cultural rebirth was inspired by widespread access to and appreciation for classical art and literature, and these translated into a renewed passion for artistic expression. Without the development of the press, the Renaissance may never have happened. Without inexpensive to make books available to a large portion of society, the son of John Shakespeare, a minor government official in rural England in the mid-1500s, may never have been inspired to write what are now recognized as some of history's greatest plays. What civilization gained from Gutenberg's invention is incalculable.

Now we have come to the latest development of press. Luckily out from manual process to the latest procedure press is still catering for the purpose of his creationto give satisfaction to the general people by providing a wider information opportunities through the means of newspapers, literary pieces books and a lot more.

However, the question is, if youre just starting to use a four postcard what will be the best design to apply? A common question of a beginner who wanted to bring out the best in his four postcards.

Before developing the design of your postcard asks yourself what is this postcard intended for? Is it an order form, mini-news release, or a general statement of my products and/or services? Make your postcard in a way that will influence the reader to take action. Make sure that if your postcard is a form for ordering or surveying, keep it simple because too much text can be confusing which may cause the reader to lose interest.

When choosing a font make sure you use at least 10pt text. A sans-serif font (Arial, Tahoma, Verdana) is best suited for smaller type size because it has a cleaner sharper look. According to recent marketing research it is proven that full postcards are more effective than postcards printed in one or two colors. The visual cues in full capture the attention of the reader. Another consideration when designing your custom printed postcard is what type of card stock you will use: coated or uncoated. Coated card stock will express your message on your postcard more vividly since the stock offers a smooth glossy finish adding also its durability.

Choosing your own style of four postcards is easy if you are going to consider the following tips suggested below:

  • Prepaid return postage.

  • Pre-addressed return address on card or a pre-addressed envelope.

  • . Neon-bright paper, pre-printed paper, or photo-postcards attract attention.

  • Plenty of room to fill in names and addresses, and easy-to-read large type.

  • Check-boxes that allow the recipient to quickly fill out order forms or surveys.

  • Incentives such as free gifts or drawings for prizes to entice recipients to return surveys or other types of reply cards.

Include your mailing address, phone number, or other alternate contact information on the card.

  • Repeat any special marketing message that is found in accompanying marketing materials. http://www.theprintguide.com/postcard-printing/

  • Calls to action. Always tell the recipient what to do with the card "Fill it out & drop it in the mail" may seem obvious, but say it anyway.

  • I agree that a great looking card is always picked up, remembered and will stand out on any desk. Great postcard designs will always be noticed in the mail. http://www.andreoni.com/. So the next time you decided to make your own postcard, try to be very smart!
