Dear Sir or Madam,
Today, flexographic printing is widely recognized as one of the greenest printing methods in the industry. While it is developing rapidly, it is also pushing flexographic prepress plate-making technology forward — especially in the areas of gravure-to-flexo and offset-to-flexo conversion.
Through years of industry research, we have identified many pain points and needs in the production processes of flexographic printing companies. For example: insufficient solid density during printing, highlights that fail to pop, broken or harsh gradients, dirty mid-tones; long plate-making cycles and high proofing and color-matching costs compared with offset printing when plates are outsourced; and the challenges prepress staff face with color separation and image adjustment.
Shanghai Publishing and Printing College focuses on cultivating practical talent and emphasizes the importance of vocational and technical education. Through multi-party cooperation with associations and enterprises, the college strives to develop skilled, market-competitive professionals who can help printing companies advance toward digitalization, intelligence, and informatization. To this end, the college is leading the "2024 Flexographic Prepress Practical Training" series, with the first session to be held in Shanghai from March 7 to March 10, 2024.
