From label design to print

Robert Shimmin examines the prepress stages involved in producing a printed label, tracing a typical job from an initial design rough through preparation, proofing and output for printing. The book places those technical steps within the wider working relationship among designer, printer and brand owner, and also covers supply-chain issues. Its practical concern is how coordination across the process can help prevent production mistakes and the extra costs they bring to a design project.
