Let me give you a brief introduction, taking the process of making a book as an example:

1, book planning, data arrangement, design and typesetting, proofreading, customer finalization and signature;

2. Inform the customer of the business department to finalize the contract, sign the contract, and make the work order of the business department (notify the machine knife to cut the paper, and notify the plate-making department to arrange the pages);

3. Plate maker plate making: check the integrity of the document, adjust the color of illustrations, make folding hands, use typesetting software to combine plates (from different companies) in the order of folding hands, draw blueprints, and send them to proofreading departments and customers for proofreading;

4. Send and arrange films: if there is no problem in proofreading, send the linked documents to CTP room for CTP (printed version);

5. On the computer: load CTP into the printing machine and start printing;

6. Follow-up process: send the folding to the folding department, the binding department will match the pages, and the binding department will bind (saddle stitching, binding, sewing and hardcover).

7. Finished products: finished product inspection, unqualified products (wrong pages, missing pages, dirt, damage, etc. ) is extracted;

8. Packaging and delivery according to customer requirements.

As for plate-making technology, you must enter the post practice to understand it. The software used by each teacher is different, and the operation differences between different softwares are also quite different. The plate-making process must be careful. Once there is a problem, it will directly affect the quality of the whole batch of goods.
