Join author Claudia McCue on a journey that introduces the printing
process and reveals the keys to designing a document that prints as well
as it looks on screen. Take a virtual tour of the floors of two commercial
print houses (BurdgeCooper and Lithographix) to better understand the life
cycle of a print job and observe printing presses in action. Discover how
to better communicate with your printer; think about print as you're
designing; choose the correct paper, inks, colors, and fonts for your
project; and correctly lay out your documents in Adobe Photoshop,
Illustrator, and InDesign. The exercise files include a beautiful and
varied example document, Maker Quarterly, from Mohawk Fine Papers, that
will help you understand how to create healthy files that print with no
surprises. The course will help you and your printer produce a
professionally finished print job, whether it's a business card, brochure,
or multipage magazine, and catch print problems before they become
catastrophes.

* Communicating with your printer
* Understanding types of printing: letterpress, sheet-fed, and more
