Answer 34 questions in 15 minutes.
If you are not ready to take this test, you can
study here
.
Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.
This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Gravure products
catalogs - publications - packaging - labels (long run - high quality products)
prints from resilient - raised image area (relief) - usually a "photopolymer plate"
serrated edge caused by cells
aka Gravure
2. Screen printing imaging methods
aka Gravure
exposure to UV light through film & chem processing - laser exposure - no film needed
prints from resilient - raised image area (relief) - usually a "photopolymer plate"
analog process (requires film positive for screen exposure). digital screen exposure units (no film) are developed
3. Offset Imaging Methods
supply to companies; ink - paper - equipment mfg's
exposure to UV light through film (analog) & chem processing - laser exposure
printing on a printing press for mass distribution
aka Flexo
4. Flexo Plate Imaging

aka Flexo
printing on a printing press for mass distribution
anything that happens to print job after it's printed
black on white laser print - color laser print - ink jet print
6. Offset products
supply to companies; ink - paper - equipment mfg's
supported by screen under tension - incorrectly & commonly referred to as "silk screen printing"
aka Computer to Plate (CTP)

thick ink deposit - type of product
aka Computer to Plate (CTP)
8. Screen products
serrated edge caused by cells
Design - order entry - preflight - digital composition - proofing - imposition - proofing - platemaking - printing - binding/finishing - distribute/deliver
