UNIT 1
THE GRAPHIC PRODUCTION FLOW
Read the text and try to do the followings.
Task 1
1. List 05 sentences in which the main verbs are used in the passive voice then
change them into active voice.
2. List 03 simple sentences, 03 compound sentences and 03 complex sentences.
3. How many printing methods are mentioned in the text? What are they?
4. Use the flowchart to show the steps of graphic production flow.
5. Explain the difference between the nouns: print and proof.
Graphic production can be divided into nine phases. The first two phases involve the
development of the creative concept. The next two focus on the implementation and further
modification of this concept. The last five steps are more industrial in nature. A fundamental
truth of graphic production is that in order to make the best design and material choices in the
initial phases, you must understand the options available to you in all subsequent phases of
production. This means thinking about the project "in reverse". For example, the type of off
press processing (postpress) you'll be doing in phase eight might determine what paper you
need to use in the original design concept; your choice of paper and printing method might, in
turn, determine how images should be scanned and color separated in the image production
phase, etc.
1/ Strategic phase
2/ Creative phase
3/ Production of artwork
4/ Production of images
5/ 0utput/Rasterizing
6/ Proofs
7/ Printing plates and printing
8/ Postpress processing
9/ Distribution
Strategic phase: Now is the time to consider the project as a whole and determine if a
printed product is what is really needed. Ask questions that will help define the product you
want to create: more clearly: What are the goals of this project? For whom is this product
intended ? What will this product be used for?
Creative phase: The creative phase is about developing the design, determining the message
of the work and how best to communicate with the audience for whom that message is
intended. More questions bring the project into focus: What type of printed product should be
created? What should this product say? How should it say it? What should this product
look like?
Production of original artwork: This phase involves writing the necessary text copy,
producing original artwork, and designing page layouts. Photography is ordered and images are
scanned. This phase often runs parallel with the image production in phase four. When the
image production is finished, digital images are installed in the original, completing this
process. It is often necessary at this stage to send one or more proofs to interested parties (i.e.
clients) for review and approval before moving on to step five, output/ rasterizing.
Production of images: In this phase, images are photographed and developed, then scanned
into the computer for further editing. The images are cropped, converted into CMYK, and
adjusted as appropriate for the printing process to be used. Other types of image editing,
including masks, retouches and color corrections, are also done in this phase. As with the
production of original artwork, one or more proofs are usually sent out for approval before
moving on to the next step.
Output/Rasterizing: Text, images and original artworks are now ready to be output on film
or paper. This output can take the form of color printouts, transparencies,
graphic films or
paper originals. Laser printers, ink-jet printers and imagesetters are a few of the types of
peripheral printing units commonly employed in this phase.
Proofs: To get a sense of what the final print will look like, a proof is made. It is an
important step in the process, as it is the last opportunity to check the material and make any
necessary changes. The proof also serves to show the printing house how the final print is
supposed to look. The proof can be analog or digital. A digital proof is made using high-
quality color printers, which means the proof can be made before producing the films and
plates. An analog proof is made based on the films used to make the printing plates.
Printing plates and printing: Once the proofs are approved, it's time to make the printing
plate that will be used to strike the actual prints. This plate is often made using graphic film.
There are a number of different printing methods. Offset printing is probably the most widely
used. Other methods include gravure printing, flexography, screen printing and digital printing.
The printing method used depends upon the product desired. Paper, of course, is the material
most commonly used for printing, but you can also print on materials like plastic or fabric.
Postpress processing: After printing, the raw prints still need to be turned into a finished
product. For instance, prints might be cut to size, folded, glued or stitched into books or
booklets, laminated or lacquered, depending on the finished product desired.
Distribution: Distribution is the last phase of graphic production. The printed, finished
product is now distributed to the end user.

UNIT 2
WORKING WITH LIGHT AND COLOR
Task 1
Task 2
List all the terms (as many as possible) relating to color that you’ve
learned so far.
Read the text and then answer the questions.
1. What are the meanings of the word “light” used as an adjective, a noun, and as a
verb?
2. Tell some kinds of light sources as you know.
3. Draw a simple picture to show the difference between incoming light and
reflected light.
4. How is the temperature of air in a room expressed or measured?
5. How do you read these: 320 C, 800 F.
Light is an important factor in determining how the eye perceives colors. Even if
the brain often forgives color variations in different light sources, the practical consequences
of using different types of light can be relatively significant, both when photographing
images and when viewing and editing images during production. The thing that makes the
type of light so important in these instances is the fact that its color composition can
vary drastically. The colors of the objects we see are, as mentioned earlier, the result of the
light reflected off those objects. The color of the reflected light is affected by the color
composition of the incoming light. There is a big difference in the appearance of an object
seen in reddish light, as opposed to that same object seen in bluish light. A surface that
looks red under white light will be perceived as orange if illuminated by yellow light, for
example.
Because of this, it's important to view photographs and printed products in the correct
light. The color of light is usually expressed as a "color temperature" measured in Kelvin
(K). A normal, neutral lighting has a color temperature of about 5,000 K. This is
approximately the equivalent of daylight and is used as a reference light when viewing
images, proofs and prints. A higher color temperature gives off a colder, bluish light, while a
lower color temperature provides a warmer, more yellow light.
There are several solutions to managing light in a work place. You can have light boxes
and viewing boxes with the correct color temperature for viewing transparencies,
reflectives, proofs and prints. The ideal solution is to light the entire workspace with
lighting that has the right temperature and composition.
The eye can also fool us. A particular color can be perceived in different ways depending
on the color it is placed next to. A single color may be perceived as two totally different
colors when placed next to different shades. This phenomenon is called contrast effect.
There is also the situation in which two colors that look identical in particular light become
completely different in another light. This phenomenon is referred to as metamerism and is a
result of the composition of the light and how the printing ink filters it.

UNIT 3
SCANNERS
Task 1
Task 2
Discuss the ways of capturing and transferring an image into a
computer. Make a list.
Read the text and then answer the questions.
1. What is document scanning?
2. What types of documents can we scan?
3. If we scan a document with the size of 6X4 inches at 150 dpi, how many
pixels can we create?
4. What’s the function of photomultipliers (PTM) and CCD cells in scanners?
5. Tell the advantages of PTM over CCD cells
In order to transfer original images to a computer for viewing and editing, you use a
scanner, which reads the original image and converts it into a digital image. There are two
main types of scanners: drum scanners and flatbed scanners. In a drum scanner, the originals
are mounted on a glass drum, while in a flatbed scanner they are placed on a flat glass
surface, much like they would be in a copier. Scanners range in price from a couple hundred
dollars up to a fifty thousand dollars. What differentiates them is primarily the quality of the
scan, productivity and how advanced their control programs are.
How does a scanner work?
When scanning an image, the scanner divides the surface of the original image into a
checkered pattern, in which every little square corresponds to a scanning point. The denser the
bitmap you select (the higher the resolution), the more image information the scanner will
record - resulting in a larger file. Each scanning point is converted to a picture element
(pixel) in the computer. The scanning resolution is measured in the number of pixels per
inch (ppi). The scanner illuminates each point with white light. The light that is reflected (if
you are using reflective art) or transmitted (if you are using transparent art) from the
scanning point will pick up the color from the respective point on the original image.
The reflected or transmitted light is then divided into 3 components - red, green and
blue - by color filters, providing the RGB value for any given color. Different intensities of
red, green or blue light beams create different colors. When the reflected or transmitted light
is divided into the three basic components, the scanner translate the intensity of each
respective component to a numerical value between 0 and 255. The intensity of each primary
color determines the numerical value between 0 (no light at all) and 255 (full intensity).
Each primary color can thus be reproduced in 256 tonal steps/ intensity levels.
Each scanning point on the original image will be a pixel in the computer. The color of
the pixel is described by the mixture of the three color values in RGB that combine to
approximate the color of the scanned point on the original. For example, the mixture red=O,
[Type here]
green=O and blue=O will appear black (no light) and red=255, green=255 and blue=255 will
appear white (maximum intensity). When all the scanning points in the original image have
been read by the scanner, the result can be thought of as a mosaic made up of tiny picture
elements. This mosaic is called a "bitmap".
Drum scanners
The drum scanner gets its name from the large glass drum on which the original artwork is
mounted for scanning. The maximum size of the original varies depending on the
manufacturer, but is usually A3. For obvious reasons, a drum scanner can only scan flexible
original images.
If, for example, you want to scan a book cover, you have to photograph it first.
Otherwise you have to scan it in a flatbed scanner. Slides have to be taken out of their
frames before they are mounted on the glass drum. Drum scanners are usually very large and
expensive but provide high quality and productivity. They are generally used by prepress
service providers and commercial printers who need to produce high-quality results in large
volume.
Flatbed scanners
During the last couple of years, flatbed scanners have become much more common.
Original images are placed flat on a glass plate, which is an advantage if you have
inflexible originals. As with drum scanners, the maximum size of the original is usually A3,
though it can vary depending on the manufacturer. Flatbed scanners are usually cheaper and
easier to work with than drum scanners. They are available in a number of price and quality
ranges, from a couple of hundred dollars up to tens of thousands of dollars. The best and
most expensive flatbed scanners are comparable to the best drum scanners in terms of image
quality.
Photo multipliers and CCD cells
The quality of the photo multipliers or CCD cells in a scanner is important for ensuring
the correct translation of light signals. CCD cells can have difficulty distinguishing tonal
differences, especially in the darker parts of an image. CCD cells also have a tendency to age,
which reduces their ability to reproduce colors and tonal transitions precisely. High-quality
CCD cells with a long life span are extremely expensive to produce.
Task 3
Underline the phrases in these sentences.
1. A particular color can be perceived in different ways depending on the color it is
placed next to.
2. A surface that looks red under white light will be perceived as orange if
illuminated by yellow light, for example.
3. The type of off press processing (postpress) you'll be doing in phase eight might
determine what paper you need to use in the original design concept.

4. It is an important step in the process, as it is the last opportunity to check the
material and make any necessary changes.
5. Once the proofs are approved, it's time to make the printing plate that will be

6. In order to transfer original images to a computer for viewing and editing, you use
a scanner, which reads the original image and converts it into a digital image.
7. In a drum scanner, the originals are mounted on a glass drum, while in a flatbed

point.
9. The light that is reflected (if you are using reflective art) or transmitted (if you are

respective point on the original image.

UNIT 4
IMAGE EDITING
Task 1
Read the text and then answer the questions.
1. How is a smooth workflow?
2. Is it better to choose the highest resolution when scanning pictures?
3. In what phase of graphic production flow is this image editing task carried out?
4. What’s the purpose of image editing?
5. When editing an image, what happens if there is too much loss of image
information?
There are a number of image editing procedures that are regularly executed during
graphic production to ensure good image quality. However, most image editing procedures
cause a loss of information in the image, compromising fine details, colors, etc. This means
you can destroy an image if you are careless or perform too many tasks. It is therefore
important to edit an image as little as possible and to perform the steps in the correct order.
You would also want to keep a smooth workflow. Despite the fact that all steps technically
"destroy" the image, the final result will generally give the impression of a better image. That
is the whole purpose of image editing.
To avoid unnecessary loss of image information, adjustments to brightness, contrast and
color should as much as possible be performed when the image is scanned. We will now
review the steps of image editing, using a scanned image as our example.
THE ORDER OF THE STEPS
We recommend the following order when it comes to editing an image: first, shrink and
crop the image to its final content and size, this will, make the rest of the work faster and
simpler. Next, make any aesthetic adjustments to the image that affect the print as a whole,
followed by those affecting only specific areas of the print. Finally, make any changes needed
to accommodate the printing process you plan to use, such as setting the sharpness and the
color conversion.
1. Crop the image: Start by making sure the composition of the image is correct.
Remove any unnecessary parts of the image by cropping it so you're not working with a
larger image surface than you need. A smaller image makes for faster editing.
2. Correct resolution: After scanning, and particularly if the image is retrieved from a
digital archive, etc., the resolution of the image has to be adjusted to that
needed for the final print. We covered the process for calculating the optimal resolution
earlier in this chapter.
[Type here]
3. Set the black point and white point: Because the print has a more limited tonal
range than reality and the original image, you should enhance the tonal range of the
print as much as possible. This is primarily done by setting the correct black and
white points. These settings determine the contrast of the image, ensuring that what
appears as white in the digital image also appears white in print, and that the black
areas in the image will print a true black. .
4. Adjust brightness and contrast: In most cases, you will probably want to adjust the
brightness and contrast of the image, if only in certain areas. For example, you might
want to lighten up just the dark areas and maintain the brightness and contrast of the rest
of the image.
5. Adjust certain colors: Sometimes you might want to adjust particular colors in an
image. Often it is natural reference colors, like skin tone, the color of the grass or the
sky, etc., that need to be corrected.
6. Store the image: If the image needs to be stored for future products you should do it
now, while it is still in RGB mode. As soon an image has been adjusted for a specific
print it is difficult to reuse efficiently for other purposes.
7. Sharpen the image: If the image appears "soft" it is generally due to a lack of
sharp transition between the dark and light hues in an outline. In order to increase the
impression of the sharpness in the overall image, you have to find these soft tonal
transitions and sharpen them. This type of artificial sharpening is conducted on most
images to varying degrees.
8. Separation: When CMYK converting, you have to define print adjustment values in
advance because the conversion has to be adjusted according to the particular printing
process.
9. Save the image in the right format: There are really only two image formats that
are used in graphic production, TIFF and EPS. There is no noticeable difference in
quality between the two formats, and they both take up about the same amount of
memory. They are basically differentiated based on the features they handle.
Task 2
Task 3
