Colored design files that are scheduled to be printed through offset printing are converted to CMYK format which stands for cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black). That way you can set four plates to represent each color during printing.
Why Are Printing Plates Blue?
So why are printing plates the color blue? Will that have any effect on my design? No, there’s no need to worry as the final product wouldn’t be blue unless it’s supposed to be. Modern printing presses use something called CTP (computer-to-plate) machines. These use laser technology to etch the designs onto the printing plates. The blue sections dictate where the ink should land as the cylinders make contact with the paper.
Do I Need to Provide My Own Printing Plate to Print?
The burden of producing printing plates fall on the printer. Customers will only need to submit their digital files after making sure they meet all the requirements such as image resolution and correct bleed setup.
