In the concept of modern packaging, color boxes and color boxes have changed from the protection of products to the promotion of products. Consumers judge the quality of products by the quality of color boxes and color boxes. Therefore, whether the color box and box design can quickly attract the attention of consumers in many colorful packages becomes the key to the success of color box and box design. It can be seen that the prepress design and plate making technology of color box and color box is unquestionable as the key technology of prepress technology. Its technical ability and level determine the competitiveness of a company's market. Its design platemaking staff can be said to be the “baby” of the corrugated color box and color box enterprises. With superior conditions and excellent treatment, it is the object of contempt for the same industry, and it is also the easiest to be “crooked”.
Design and plate making are two completely different but closely linked two processes or types of work, and can also be regarded as technologies. The following authors combine the actual situation of the author's company with the prepress and design techniques of color boxes and color boxes. Explain.
Prepress design technology for color box and color box layout
The layout design technology is generally divided into original design and imitation design. Under normal circumstances, in the layout design work requires the following equipment: a high-performance computer, matching printers, scanners, and some also have color separation device, and the corresponding professional design software.
The layout of the original design, also called creative design, is a professional design company according to the needs of the company's product performance, characteristics of the outer packaging carton layout design. This kind of layout design has higher requirements on the technical level, professional skills and professional knowledge of designers. This kind of design is generally a professional design company to do, the company engaged in this design is less, but large-scale carton packaging companies also have such professional designers for creative design. The key to layout design of color boxes and color boxes is color separation and printing network control. The first is pattern design and layout design. These two designs must highlight the characteristics of the products being packaged so that consumers can be deeply attracted to the package once they are seen. This is also a kind of packaging design. Congratulations to the design approach. Followed by color separation, color separation must be based on the company's equipment and personnel technology to determine. If the company has several multi-color offset printing equipment, it can be divided into several colors. Try not to use spot colors. On the contrary, it is less. Once again, the distribution of outlets must be determined according to the requirements of the printing and the performance of the equipment. It is also necessary to faithfully respond to pattern appeals and highlight product features and quality.
The layout of the layout, also known as the secondary design, is based on the original design changes, the layout of the basic design of the layout, only to adjust individual patterns, fonts, and some need to increase the relevant content. For example, increase the QS safety mark. If the content of pure grain solid fermentation is added to the alcohol cartons and cartons, the design of the carton layout needs to be adjusted and corrected. This design technique is relatively common in carton manufacturers. This layout design method is also the most practical and useful for corrugated box manufacturers.
The following describes the application of the secondary design technology. There are also two methods for the so-called design of the second layout. One is to ask the cartons procurement company to directly provide a well-designed layout, and the layout designers of the carton manufacturing enterprises handle the processing, distribution, and distribution. After the proofing, the clear proof is requested to be printed and produced by the cartons purchasing company after confirmation; one is provided by the carton purchasing company. The layout designer of the carton manufacturing company saves the pattern of the carton layout to the computer through the scanner, and the computer After the color separation processing is performed through the professional design software, the layout pattern is the same as the layout pattern of the carton layout, and the sample is sent out. Please confirm with the customer. After the customer confirms, the carton manufacturer can conduct plate making and printing production. The above two layout design methods are common practice in carton manufacturing enterprises. Of course, the former method needs to pay attention to: whether the design software used in the previous layout design is compatible with the design software used by the carton enterprise. The problem, if it is compatible, is that the secondary design will be very quick and accurate; if it is not compatible, special attention will be paid to the accuracy of the fonts and patterns. Remember to compare them with the original; for designs with dots, special attention must be paid Changes in outlets.
