Printing and Finishing
The printing and finishing specifications should include the length of the print run. But more intricate, technical minutiae are also required here than in the prepress set, and some facts about the production of the piece as a whole are needed. Most of this information, said Hardesty-Kuhn, can be garnered from the general layout of the project, including the work’s final size, and any other applicable requirements, such as binding, number of pages, final weight, bleed, paper quantity and quality, four-color work and additional PMS coloring, along with how the job should be folded and assembled.
