Design Printing Process are connecting people from different fields.Only by understanding the whole process and the designer's own positioning can it be possible to present the design perfectly.
1.Data Preparation
The editors sort out text materials, photos, illustrations and other related materials. As some pictures may be used enlarged.
In order to avoid lack of precision, resulting in image distortion and blur, you should provide higher resolution image design and layout as much as possible.
2.Design Typography
Graphic designers use PS, AI and other design software to carry out typesetting and design work.
When designing a document, the color needs to be set to the CMYK color system used for printing, and the resolution of the document must be higher than 300DPI.Although the printed output file is not completed at this stage, the issue of bleed still needs to be considered to reduce unnecessary errors.
3.Manuscript proofreading
Because the effect of the design on the computer screen and the actual paper is different.Therefore, the completed manuscript will be made into a sample for internal and customer proofreading.Proofreading in three aspects: design style, picture quality, pictures and text are correct.
Design Style
When making a computer manuscript, it needs to be checked in advance.Then when it is made into a sample, it needs to be checked again.
The main purpose of doing this is to improve some design details.
Picture Quality
Use the printed copy to confirm that the quality of the pictures used is good enough, especially bitmaps.If the accuracy is not enough, it must be replaced in time.
Correctness and error of pictures and texts
Pictures and text often have various errors.When we get the printed sample, it is easier to find the mistakes in the graphics and texts from the reader's point of view.
4. Printing documents
After the customer checks and proofreads, it will be made into the final printed document.Printing documents need to pay attention to the problem of overprint line printing out and writing this type of printing.It is also necessary to confirm again whether the color system used by the file is the CMYK color system.If spot colors are used, is there a Pantone color number listed?In addition, it is necessary to check whether the image link of the file is valid and whether the text has been converted into a curve.If it is a multi-page printing screen, pay attention to the problem of imposition.Currently PDF is a relatively reliable format.Because this kind of file can be viewed on all computers, and can also be opened and edited in the design software,Also solved the problem of missing pictures and fonts.
5. Print production
After the above-mentioned process, the printed documents can be delivered to the printing factory for printing, after printing, processing and binding in the printing factory, the final printed product is delivered to the customer.
