DIGITAL PRINTING
a.k.a. litho, lithography, offset lithography
Digital Printing is the latest revolution in the print industry. Enabled by digital technology, the most significant difference from other print methods is that there is no printing plate required with digital print. Any image created on a computer can be printed directly to the finished piece via electronic means.
Significant advantages of digital printing include:
Digital print, while economical for some print projects, is also just "flat print", but can be enhanced by many of the same methods that are used for offset printing, including using various varnish finishes, ultra-violet coatings, adding thermography, register embossing or other finishing techniques.
As with any print process, choosing the correct shop and the correct technology for each project can make digital printing an excellent choice.
