Where to get help
If you need help editing or submitting your draft, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. These venues are only for help with editing and the submission process, not to get reviews.
If you need feedback on your draft, or if the review is taking a lot of time, you can try asking for help on the talk page of a relevant WikiProject. Some WikiProjects are more active than others so a speedy reply is not guaranteed.
To improve your odds of a faster review, tag your draft with relevant WikiProject tags using the button below. This will let reviewers know a new draft has been submitted in their area of interest. For instance, if you wrote about a female astronomer, you would want to add the Biography, Astronomy, and Women scientists tags.
Printing has changed a lot over time, improving how we communicate and show things visually. There are different types of printing, from old-school letterpress to new digital methods. This intro looks at a few kinds like offset, and screen printing. Knowing about them is important for industries like publishing, packaging, and manufacturing. Understanding what they're good at and where they struggle helps us see how they affect society and how they might change in the future.
Printing -- is a technique used to mass-produce text and images using a master form or template. Early examples of printing include cylinder seals and objects such as the Cyrus Cylinder and the Cylinders of Nabonidus.
Color -- is the property possessed by an object of producing different sensations in the eye as a result of the way the object reflects or emits light.
De-boss -- depressing the surrounding area of mostly decorations and lettering to give a raised effect to the design. For example, raising up letters on a book cover.
DPI -- is an abbreviation for Dots Per Inch, a term describing the resolution or screen ruling of an image (halftone) or graphic.
Laminate -- refers to a thin plastic film applied to the surface of a printed item. Its purpose is to achieve a desired texture or finish and enhance durability.
The Bullet point below shows the timeline of the history of Printing.[1]
Woodblock Printing (200 AD, China): The OG of printing! Text and images were carved onto wood, inked, and pressed onto fabric or paper.
Movable Type (1040 AD, China): A game-changer! This technique used reusable ceramic characters for printing. In Europe (1440s), Gutenberg upped the ante with metal movable type and his famous printing press.
Printing Press Revolution (1440s, Gutenberg): This invention dramatically increased printing speed and brought down costs. More books, more knowledge, more literate people!
Spreading Ideas (Renaissance & Reformation): The printing press fueled the Renaissance by making scientific discoveries and classic texts more accessible. It also played a key role in the Reformation by enabling wider circulation of religious texts.
Modern Printing Takes Over (19th & 20th Centuries): The 19th century saw faster printing with steam-powered rotary presses and easier text composition with Linotype machines. The 20th century brought offset printing for better image quality and digital printing for on-demand convenience.
Morio Pro Co., Ltd. had studied and researched special techniques as known as "Special Printing", which emphasizes printing materials and ink study, down to every detail in order to ensure the best and unique quality.[2]
Stone touch -- Some of the printing artist's works include the color print process, which transfers stone/rock dust to diverse surfaces. This approach simulates the sensation of a real stone or rock. "Stone touch" is appropriate for hard-solid materials like MDF, VIVA Board, Plas-Wood, Plywood, Hard Board, and many more.
Chijimi Effect -- The Japanese term "Chijimi" refers to a process that creates a wrinkled and fractured texture on a polished surface, giving it a dimensional appearance. This design is rarely utilized in the printing process on a regular surface. It is suitable for a variety of graphic items.

Soft touch -- A technique for creating a viscous texture similar to rubber, but with a much softer touch. "Soft touch" is matte and may be applied to a variety of materials, giving a modern and high-tech feel.Soft touchScented effect -- A process that adds aroma to the texture by combining ink with micron capsules of perfume solution. After rubbing these capsules, the smell will be released. When an image of an orange is printed using this process, it can exude an orange-zest aroma.
Mapping Gloss-Matt -- The technique for printing both glossy and matte colors on the same surface. "Mapping" creates a high-contrast, three-dimensional look that highlights and draws attention to certain sections of the object.
Metallic look -- The 'Metallic look' technique is similar to "Glittering," but with smaller and finer glitters, resulting in a more basic and beautiful look.Matallic look
Mirror effect -- The 'Mirror' technique gold and silver frequently represent affluence. However, the nature of their surface must be evaluated for its compatibility with the product's visual.Mirror effect
Glittering -- The 'Glittering' is a unique printing method where glitters are carefully applied to the printing surface. It adds depth and a captivating visual appeal to the printed material.
Wet Look -- The 'Wet Look' technique adds texture and a water droplet effect to materials, giving them a glossy, wet appearance.Wet LookRubber Look -- The 'Rubber-look' texture printing technique creates a raised and detailed product, ideal for paper surfaces due to its vibrant qualities.
Glow In The Dark -- The 'Glow in the Dark' technique is popular for making magical and illusionary graphic products because it absorbs light and slowly emits it in the dark.Glow In The Dark
Hologram -- The 'Hologram' creates a high-tech and modern look, giving products a radiant and captivating visual effect.
Day Glow -- The 'Day Glow' boosts the brightness of colors in products, ideal for those with a wide range of vibrant hues.
Elective Effect -- The 'Elective Effect' is great for warning signs or graphics needing to stand out when lit up, due to its light sensitivity.
Magnetic -- The 'Magnetic' technique adds magnetic properties to the surface, allowing it to attract other metals or magnetic materials.
