The Visual Dictionary of Pre-press and Production by Gavin Ambrose

"The Visual Dictionary of Pre-press & Production" is a concise and comprehensive introduction to the world of production. Over 250 prepress and production terms are defined and explained, each accompanied by compelling historical and contemporary illustrations and examples. The book is an invaluable reference tool for all students and practitioners of pre-press and production, be it in graphic design or related disciplines. From practical terms such as Accents, Bitmap and Color calibration to styles and finishes such as Canadian and half-Canadian, Perfect Bound and TCF (Totally Chlorine Free), this book contains both modern terminology and the traditional terms still in current usage.
