GRACoL
Conducts Press Runs to DTR004
The GRACoL Committee is planning five press runs,
at different locations, in the very near future.
The first press run will be held at Integrity Graphics
on December 23, 2004, followed by runs at L.A.Graphico
in California and ManRoland in Chicago. The purpose
of the press runs is to create a printed project
that reflects the finest standard on a Number 1
sheet. The main tenets to judging, and evaluating
the final sheets will be three: grey balance, tone
value and uniformity. These critical elements are
the most difficult to achieve and maintain throughout
all the development stages - from proof to final
sheet. |
