- Thermograph Printing
- Thermography is an inexpensive alternative to engraving. This process deposits a dry resin onto wet ink. The resin is then heated and melts, resulting in a raised image.
- Engrave Printing
- The Engraving process uses both a die and a counter die.
The counter die pushes the paper up from the backside somewhat into the inked die.
This leaves a tell-tale impression on the back of the paper and a raised image on the front.
- Letterpress Printing
- Formerly the standard printing process, this is now used for specialty work and can be very costly. During the Letterpress process the image area is lowered below the surface of the non-printing area of the paper using a die.
- Combination Print example: Thermograph and Digital
