In case you already have one, start working with it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Preparing the electronic layout for printing.  <\/strong>Having created an electronic mock-up of the product, we prepare it for printing, having checked and previously agreed the final version with you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Trapping and color separation.  <\/strong>Trapping is a technique for masking register errors. It consists of thickening the contours of printed elements. Color separation is the division of a color image into multiple monochrome components. It is needed to prepare the image for printing with multiple inks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Making a color proof.  <\/strong>A color proof is a sample of the final product. It is created to verify that the color separation is correct. It helps to avoid errors and costs in the subsequent stages of prepress image preparation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Structural development and layout design.  <\/strong>Engage in structural design and engineering using CAD and CAM computer-aided design systems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Creating a packaging trial sample.  <\/strong>Having approved the layout, we prepare layouts for placing the strips in a sealed sheet format.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Production of printing plates.  <\/strong>A printing plate is a plate that is used to apply an image to the material to be printed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Development and manufacture of technical tooling.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/koloro.ua\/files\/images\/content\/\/59f47f595a801.jpg\" alt=\"Pre-press layout preparation\" title=\"image\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-&#x432;&#x438;&#x434;&#x44B;-&#x43F;&#x435;&#x447;&#x430;&#x442;&#x438;-&#x43D;&#x430;-&#x443;&#x43F;&#x430;&#x43A;&#x43E;&#x432;&#x43A;&#x435;\">Types of printing on packaging<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-&#x43E;&#x444;&#x441;&#x435;&#x442;&#x43D;&#x430;&#x44F;-&#x43F;&#x435;&#x447;&#x430;&#x442;&#x44C;\"><strong>Offset printing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many years offset printing has been a leader among all existing types of printing. The secret to its success is the <strong>relatively low cost per copy for large print runs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pre-press offset printing is a time-consuming and costly process. One of its most important steps is <strong>error checking and correction<\/strong>. It is necessary to prevent the production of defective products.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>strip down process<\/strong> is also important. This is the correct arrangement of pages of the document with orientation to the specific features of printing and prepress in a particular printing house.  <strong>Thanks to him, the products appear exactly as they were intended.<\/strong>  Strip descent helps to save on paper, which reduces the cost of the product.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Offset printing requires printing plates. They are produced using photographic film or by developing offset plates in a special copying frame.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-&#x444;&#x43B;&#x435;&#x43A;&#x441;&#x43E;&#x433;&#x440;&#x430;&#x444;&#x438;&#x447;&#x435;&#x441;&#x43A;&#x430;&#x44F;-&#x43F;&#x435;&#x447;&#x430;&#x442;&#x44C;\"><strong>Flexographic printing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flexographic printing is <strong>particularly popular for printing carton or film packaging and labels<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are several requirements for preparing printing plates for flexo printing. Among them:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the need for a negative image;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the image on the photo plate should be compressed along one of the axes;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the image must be readable from the emulsion side.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In offset printing, the designer does not have to worry about the paper size and placement of images on the sheet. This is done by hand mounting. However, there is no manual mounting of molds in flexography. Here, <strong>exactly what will be printed needs to be prepared for output to the photo plate<\/strong>. I.e.. to print a label, you need to place it on a sheet, design it with scales, cut marks, etc.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can order prepress flexo printing service from KOLORO.

It differs from others by using a stencil when applying images. It is most often <strong>used for printing single demand products with small print runs<\/strong> (mainly for text materials).<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For screen printing it is <strong>desirable to use vectorized layouts<\/strong>. I.e.. the drawing should consist of shapes or lines rather than a set of dots. When printing a bitmap image, the number of lines per inch does not exceed 45 (whereas in offset printing it reaches up to 175). Also, when colors overlap, you must specify the order of the colors for proper color separation. The lightest shade is usually printed first.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-&#x433;&#x43B;&#x443;&#x431;&#x43E;&#x43A;&#x430;&#x44F;-&#x43F;&#x435;&#x447;&#x430;&#x442;&#x44C;\"><strong>Deep Seal<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This method dates back to the 15th century. Right now, <a href=\"https:\/\/koloro.ua\/dizajn-gibkoj-upakovki.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gravure printing<\/a> is developing mainly in the packaging manufacturing market. In this type of printing, ink is fed to the printing cylinder and falls on the corresponding printing recesses.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the features of gravure prepress is the <strong>difficulty of correcting prepress errors and mistakes on the printing plate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/koloro.ua\/files\/images\/content\/\/59f47faf24ce1.jpg\" alt=\"Pre-press preparation of Coca Cola packaging\" title=\"image\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-&#x434;&#x435;&#x43A;&#x43E;&#x440;&#x438;&#x440;&#x43E;&#x432;&#x430;&#x43D;&#x438;&#x435;-&#x441;&#x442;&#x435;&#x43A;&#x43B;&#x44F;&#x43D;&#x43D;&#x44B;&#x445;-&#x438;&#x437;&#x434;&#x435;&#x43B;&#x438;&#x439;\">Decorating glassware<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/koloro.ua\/blog\/dizain\/10-sposobov-dekorirovaniya-butylki-dlya-alkogolnoj-produkcii.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">decorating glassware<\/a> (often alcohol bottles) has become increasingly popular.
