Book Description
Graphic Design and Print Production Fundamentals was created by the Graphic Communications Open TextbookCollective Design itself is only the first step. It is important when conceiving of a new design that the entire workflow through toproduction is taken into consideration. And while most modern graphic design is created on computers, using designsoftware such as the Adobe suite of products, the ideas and concepts don't stay on the computer. To create in-storesignage, forinstance, the ideas need to be completed in the computersoftware, then progress to an imaging (traditionallyreferred to as printing) process. This is a very wide-reaching and varied group of disciplines. By inviting a group ofselect experts to author the chapters of this textbook, our goal is to specifically focus on different aspects of the designprocess, from creation to production

Book Description
In this innovative book, print design concepts are united with graphic production technology information, providing readers with an understanding of the processes involved in both the design and print/publishing fields. While traditional books have viewed design and production as two separate fields of study, the rapidly changing technological landscape has blurred this distinction, resulting in an increasing amount of design and production activities performed by the same people. Therefore, this book provides designers and production personnel with a solid knowledge of both fields, which will better prepare them for success in the industry. Designing for Print Production: Essential Concepts focuses on the content, concepts and instructional strategies that will be relevant long after the book has been read. By acknowledging the critical and changing technologies that will impact the design and publication process, this book is a comprehensive, valuable resource for anyone entering the design and production fields.

Book Description
The Production Manual demonstrates the practical aspects of getting a creative job into production. This hands-on production guide shows graphic design students how to apply the knowledge acquired during their course. All the essential areas of production that involve the graphic designer are covered in detail with clear descriptions of the various technical processes, including design for print, exhibition stands, packaging and signage. In the case of print work, The Production Manual tackles issues such as image resolution, printing techniques, and plate-making: all those aspects that ensure that a graphic design project is produced as required and for maximum effect. The Production Manual also highlights the inspirational side of production, for example, highly creative printing processes and how to achieve tricky effects such as duotones and halftones.
