Book description
Due to the rise in functionality and sophistication of design
software, graphic designers and desktop publishers are now able and expected
to perform highly technical prepress functions from the desktop. Many,
however, have limited understanding of the technical issues facing printers
attempting to bring their designs to fruition. Design for Print is the
result of in-depth discussions with printers and designers to work out why
some jobs turn out to be production nightmares, and how they can be
prevented. It focuses on clarifying the production issues that crop up
between the initial design and the final printed piece, whatever technology
is used. With this book on your desk, you should find most of the answers
you need to create a printed piece that really works for the client, the
printer - and for the designer
