Thank you for this site; what a wonderful resource! I would love to see an article about the proper way, start to finish, to build files for photopolymer plates. (I learned letterpress printing with hand set type and my computer know how is self taught, so I have serious gaps in my understanding.) What is the best way to create color separations? Crop marks, bleeds, traps etc. Can everything be done in one program or is it better to do text in a page layout program and graphics in another? Thanks!
