In the spirit of spring, with all the flowers and trees in bloom, I thought it fitting to discuss some primitive custom printing techniques that have been around (in some cases) probably since the Stone Age. They're ideal for children's art parties, and you may even want to do these projects if you have an artistic bent.
I was actually starting to write an article about a little book my fiancee bought for her grandson, a book about fish. I had planned to start with praise for the sophisticated use of white ink on clear divider pages to allow for opaque overlays with different art on either side.
I came upon an outstanding article about dye-sub fabric printing yesterday. It's called “A Closer Look at Digital Dye-Sublimation Printing,” written by Richard Romano and published on 03/14/16 on WhatTheyThink.com. I encourage you to Google it. It's a great primer on this commercial printing technology.
With our hectic schedules, my fiancee and I eat more fast food than I'd like to say. We have found that you can sleep, eat, and run a business from the privacy of your own car.
A commercial printing vendor I've been working with for about a year just hit the trifecta. They installed three new pieces of digital printing and finishing equipment, and I think this will be a game changer for this firm. I just received their press release, and I want to share the information with you and then explain why each piece is a step forward, both for this particular vendor and for the industry as a whole.
