- Offset Printing:
Letterpress
printing is the oldest of the major printing processes and is not used very
often anymore. This process uses plates which were first made of wood and
later they were made of metal. The print image on the plate is raised and
when inked, the plate is placed in contact with a platen that holds the
paper and the image is transferred.
Flexography is
most commonly seen in the packaging industry as it provides the flexibility
to print on a wide variety of surfaces. The process is very similar though
to Letterpress except for the fact that the plate used is made of a flexible
material such as rubber or plastic.
Gravure is used
for a variety of purposes such as magazines, catalogs, packaging,
tablecloths, wallpaper, etc. This process is sort of the opposite of the
relief processes described above in that the print image is recessed through
an engraving/etching process and uses a metal cylinder as the image carrier.

foil) with a pressure-controlled, air operated imprinting press that
