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

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.
