On press

Last week i managed to go see our upcoming Autumn catalogue on press. It was real nice seeing what happens with your work after you’ve handed it over, all the processes it goes through and the equipment used. Their big press can do 40,000 prints an hour. Crazy fast. So here’s some pics…

Above is the machine that feeds the paper through into these printers…

Out of shot is another set of six, where one side of the sheet is printed on before turning over and going through this set. End result being this…

Our Autumn 2009 catalogue cover.

To see the rest you’ll have to wait til September.

Nice.
