| Recommendations | Folding: -cover and board weights require pre-creasing with an adequately deep bead (creasing such that the bead forms inside the fold). It is always better to design the job such that you avoid over printing the fold with a colour which is strongly contrasting with that of the paper. Lust Retreeve & Earthtints may be suitable for monochrome inkjet printing on those machines designed and set up for plain paper use but trials are recommended. Varnishing: -to achieve a gloss varnish, it is recommended that a two-pass silk screen UV varnish be applied |
