What are the common papers for design printing? I just finished my graphic design certificate and a

Coated paper, offset paper, carbonless paper.

First, you must be able to use no less than three types of graphic design software.

Second: it is necessary to understand the specifications and models of commonly used printing paper (such as positive magnanimity, different regulations; Gram weight, coated paper, laminated paper, special paper, etc.).

Third: understand the common cutting method of printing paper (that is, the printing size, which is inseparable from the production of documents and films).

Fourth: understand the post-printing construction process and requirements.

Fifth: document production, imposition (including bleeding, film printing; Distinguish the size of the print, such as folio, quadruple, etc.).

Sixth: After the post-printing stage (including lamination, binding, special processes such as indentation, hot stamping, gold, UV, etc.), you can almost produce the finished product and turn your design into reality...

CorelDraw software is also a must.

Vector graphics are conceptually distinguished from bitmaps.

Color compositing, like the difference between RGB and CMYK grading, and remembering the exact color** will allow you to mix colors accurately.

Printing-related processes, uvBoil stamping, hot silver, pressing and so on you have to be clear!

1. Approximate printing process.

2. The commonly used printing concepts should be clear. Bleeding, PS plate, common paper types, printing process (embossing, bronzing silver, laminating, glue binding, wire binding, UV).

It's almost fine, and the rest can be learned slowly at work.

Hello! 1) Since you said that it is the graphic design of the printing house, it is "prepress design".

2) Do you need more software than other advertising companies and design companies, and they are more professional.

3) In addition to Photoshop, Illustrator, CorelDraw, InDesign, and Acrobat, the software should also be proficient in such as quark imposition software, as well as the Founder RIP system, which is a professional interpretation software for films.

4) As for the operation, it is not easy to say in general, that is, while learning, while applying experience, the customer base is mainly to receive the design studios, advertising companies.

The manuscripts that need to be output for the finished products such as PDF, EPS, AI, CDR are imposed, and the color correction is printed on the machine.

5) Monthly salary, the general printing plant is larger, prepress designers are in short supply, and the monthly salary here in Beijing is generally about 7000-15000.

6) It is estimated that you are a beginner, so don't ask for too much salary, and when you become a professional master, you will naturally get a raise.

Printing houses generally do less design, and the main thing that should be used is typesetting software, and there will be some graphic design software foundations.

The most used typesetting software: Founder (mainly typesetting text), Weisi (simple**), Feiteng (**, newspaper typesetting is generally more commonly used), pagemaker (**, commonly used by advertising companies and magazines, the most convenient for **arrangement).

If you want to design software, coreldrow and illustrator are the majority.

If you are an intern, you should be able to do the basics, and if you want to do printing output or something from the beginning, you will probably be very proficient.

Hello, graphic design wants to compare with the design of the printing house is more about the sense of aesthetics The printing house design has some software functions that do not need to be able to look at the resolution, color mode, size, and other processes to know that it is simpler than graphic design.

Since it can be called a graphic designer, the common sense of relevant graphic design must be clarified, and one of the main ways to embody graphic design works is printing.

Let's summarize the basic knowledge of printing that graphic design should master:

Specifications and folios of the paper.

The type and grams of paper.

Understanding of different resolutions.

Print bleed.

The color mode of the print.

Monochrome printing, four-color printing, spot color printing.

Printing types and printing processes.

Precautions for pre-press, in-press, and post-press.

The above is the content that comes to mind temporarily, if there is any omission, please correct! Of course, if you want to explain, there are too many knowledge points, if necessary, I can analyze and explain it in detail in the supplementary instructions, and everyone will make progress together!

Graphic design requires mastery of printing knowledge, mainly including:

1. Document mode is commonly referred to as RGB and CMYK.

2. The setting of the bleed bit, usually 3mm (no matter what you design, as long as the final printing is required).

3. Paper size is the folio: When printing and designing products, you need to test how big the paper will be so as not to cause waste.

4. Paper type: According to the product demand, propose to the customer what kind of paper type to use, such as printing.

Photoshop Portrait Photography Post-High-end Retouching and Coloring Bible (2nd Edition) This book, you need to use coated paper to print, not offset paper, because coated paper can keep the picture clear, delicate, and good color and other effects while offset paper can hardly do it.

5. **: According to the customer's conditions and requirements, give a suitable recommendation, then the paper is different, and the printing process is different, such as printing high-end magazines, which have gold and concave and convex effects, and ordinary printing, **There are many differences.

6. Overprinting: This is mainly to solve the phenomenon that the text will not appear white when printing.

7. Resolution design: the minimum printing is 300dpi, but not necessarily, usually the black and white effect of 200-250 can also be, the color must be 300, but for the sake of safety, all set 300dpi can be.

Final advice for a friend:

It is recommended that you switch from graphic design to UI design, because now there are fewer and fewer paper media, I go to the bookstore to take a look and you will find that there are fewer and fewer books, and the development trend is more e-books, reading books through mobile terminals (such as mobile phones, tablets, etc.).

It should be divided into two types: ordinary designers and printing and publishing designers. I don't know much about the latter, so I'll talk about the former.

Common sense is essential. [Bleeding], whether it is cropping or printing, there is loss, in order to avoid these losses from destroying the content of your picture, you must set a reasonable bleeding.

Color mode], the general printing uses CMYK four-color to do the film overlay, but, but there is an exception, the fast printing can be used RGB mode, which is why we think the fast printing color will be brighter. There are also some cmyk usage tips, for example, monochrome black is k:100, four-color black is all four values are 100, four-color black will be darker than monochrome black, use this skill to make a UV-like effect when making business cards, save costs and have excellent results.

Of course, please avoid using four-color black for general documents, and the gram size of the paper is likely to be printed through.

Another point is also said here, there is a color called spot color, which is a special pigment, very beautiful but ** very high. It is suitable for interspersed with embellishments and small areas.

Resolution] Paper products please keep above 300 points, inkjet 50 72 can be.

Additional knowledge. The material and process, the inking characteristics, texture, and thickness of various kinds of paper all affect the intuitive feeling of the audience or the reader. Crafts include UV (the kind that feels like a layer of nail polish), foil stamping, punching and convex, rounding and special cuts, cut-outs, and more.

In the past, I was doing real estate advertising, and I used more of these techniques, probably to create a lofty atmosphere.

That's all you can think of for the time being, welcome to add.

If you want to be more professional, you must know how to print.

Because the works designed by the designer are very different from the finished products printed in terms of color and layering.

In addition, designers basically need to communicate with printing companies, and some printing processes also need to be understood.

So it's best to understand the relationship between the colors in the computer and the colors that are printed. Many graphic designers only know about RGB's color gamut mode, and don't know anything or little about the other color gamuts. In fact, the printing is all using the CMYK color gamut.

If your work is done in RGB mode, it will be converted to CMYK mode when printing. The direct conversion of RGB to CMYK will produce color aberration. Some colors even have a strong color cast.

Therefore, the basic CMYK color gamut must be mastered, and the products used for printing should also use the CMYK color gamut mode as much as possible. In this way, the product will be printed closer to the ideal color in the designer's source file.

In addition, a variety of commonly used printing processes must also be mastered and known, such as what post-process is there in the printing enterprise? What impressions do these techniques have on your work? What special effects can these processes produce, and so on.

Like the commonly used hot stamping silver, UV varnish, linoleic, peritoneum, percussion, special ink printing, 3D raster printing, etc., mastering these process effects can make your work more excellent and achieve a better commercial effect.

But color printing is a very complex expertise in its own right. So you have to be selective in learning, choose what you can use. Rather than learning in general.

I can't say this clearly, so I'll just talk about it briefly.

The first one, as a designer, the first color of your design work must pass, and your color should be RGB mode, and the second one, you must be familiar with the printing process, especially in the design of gift boxes, according to the process.

Understand the printing process, process, paper.

For beginners, what you need to master now doesn't need too much, because in the later stage of printing, according to different industries, different materials, and different processes will produce different printing effects, which is difficult to understand in a few words.

You remember that practice is the truth, and now teach you a few tricks to the most common knowledge:

1.Remember to do "bleeding position" when doing flat surface, I don't understand the meaning of searching for "bleeding position", and the bleeding is generally 3mm.

2.Printing color guarantee design file is CMYK, four colors.

3.The text should be twisted.

These 3 points are suitable for all processes that involve printing.

Other packaging and printed matter with special shapes and processes cannot be clearly explained.

1 **To be four-colored. Because the printing is used in four colors.

2 black text if yes, k100

3 When designing, there will be bleeding around the original file size. The leaflet bleed three millimeters.

4. Turn the curve before the hair row.

Basically, you have to figure out the paper, color, and what kind of machine is used for printing. The rules of typesetting should also be understood, and how to save paper and money by imposing must also be understood. In a word: practice brings true knowledge, follow a good master and study hard, and you will be able to pass it in 2 months.

The design should be based on the printing process, and the resolution (usually 300) and the color mode should be CMYK

Hemorrhage (usually 3 mm unilaterally).

Text convolutions, style transposition maps (e.g. transparent gradients, etc.).

Prepress: art drawing, typesetting, filming, printing: inking, printing, color ......

Post-press: color box: surface treatment (lamination, calendering, partial UV, etc.), hot stamping, mounting paper, beer cutting, bonding.

Books: folding, collating, binding, all of the above are hand-typed).

Post-printing knowledge refers to the skills that make your design out of the smooth printing of things, these things are fragmented and numerous, which is part of the accumulation of practical experience, the score says how to set the bleeding bit, the value of the printing dot is greater than 5, the printing black can not be used four-color black, the excel** in the printing file should be converted into a bitmap, what materials may cause legal trouble, how to set the size of the packaging box, how to apply the special printing process to match the design, How to get low-cost or high-quality proofs before output, what kind of photography can meet the customer's printing requirements, etc.

These later knowledge is not sitting somewhere to listen to and listen to it, although it is not difficult, but it needs to be accumulated in the work, if you don't do the printing industry, then you will never learn the later knowledge of printing.

Printing is generally divided into:

1. Pre-printing work (generally refers to photography, design, production, typesetting, filming, proofing, etc.);

Second, the work in the middle of printing (through the printing machine, the process of checking and rejecting the finished product);

3. The work of the later stage of printing generally refers to the post-processing of printed matter.

Post-printing work includes:

1. Binding: plastic binding, hardcover, saddle binding, flat binding, simple binding, adhesive surface;

2. Folding: half-fold, three-fold, four-fold, five-fold, accordion fold;

3. Laminating, glazing and oiling: matte film and bright film; Varnishing and oiling can be divided into full and partial glazing and oiling;

Fourth, special-shaped die-cutting, bronzing (silver), convex, embossing.

5. Surface paste: generally refers to packaging cartons, high-end albums, book binding, brocade box processing, etc.
