Rationale:

With the advert of computers and its integration with the prepress systems made the CTP work flow and the way for digital imposition of pages with more advanced facilities. The colour management applications ensure for better colour reproduction with consistency in printing. CIE lab colour space and the colour measurement by spectrodensitometer are becoming important and being implemented by all the printers. The PDF and JDF workflows used in print production for better management of files and CIP3&CIP4 integration helps the organization in optimizing the task in digital prepress.

Objectives:

At the end of the study of V Semester the student will be able to :

  • Know the Fundamentals of Digital Prepress Techniques.
  • Understand the Importance of Input and Output Resolution.
  • Learn the Digital Photography and Flatbed Scanner.
  • Learn the Image Capturing and Scanning Process.
  • Understand the Sheet Assembly, Imposition and Raster Image Processing.
  • Understand Imposition Software and their Workflow.
  • Study the Colour Management Concepts and Colour Measuring Devices.
  • Learn the Digital Proofing and Press Proofing Process.
  • Understand the Computer to Plate Technology.
  • Provide basic understanding CTP plates and lasers.
  • Learn the Preflight Technology and Workflows.
