How to choose between digital proofing and traditional proofing? Urgent, I hope the details!

1, traditional proofing: the traditional proofing practice is to finalize the first film, and then sun PS version of the traditional proofing machine with a round pressure flat proofing, proofing high cost, long time, and because it is manually operated, the color depth is determined by the proofing technician to repeat the color of the proofing again will be different. Now there are still many not on the CTP printing press, printing the design of pre-press documents, typesetting are in the pre-press design company or output center to complete. Sometimes the customer's electronic documents provided by the error, not proofing can not see, to be traditional out of the film proofing time is too late, or some trade secrets and can not flow out, then will think of their own proofing is good.

2, digital proofing: digital proofing is through the color management software will be lined up electronic documents into the same interpretation of the actual printing effect of color separation of the document, with high-precision, large format inkjet printers to print out, instead of the output of film after the traditional proofing process, in particular, the use of computerized direct-to-plate CTP process, because there has been no need for film proofing, but signing the sample printing or have a proof, and the proofs are not the same. Sample, and the color of the sample should also be consistent with the actual printing results, so there must be digital proofing first hit the sample and then CTP output on the machine version. With the continuous development of inkjet printing technology, from the original four-color inkjet has developed to the current 11-color inkjet, in fact, from 7-color inkjet has been able to compress the color gamut space, simulate the ink hue, through the color control software and hardware, the real color of the traditional prints in line. But the more inconvenient is that it must be printed on imitation coated paper with special coatings, to booklet printing manufacturers color is very correct, no problem with the color. But relative to the packaging printing-based manufacturers are very difficult to do, because they often not only have to hit the sample, but also to be made into a finished product to the customer, and the special imitation coated paper adhesion is poor, in the post-processing lamination, hot stamping, laminating E-watt, die-cutting die-convex box and so on, after processing is not a very good use of the process. Now, Xiamen Good Print Digital Technology Co., Ltd. R & D and production of "with e print" series of products, you can already use the actual printing of paper proofing, with the actual material paper and other substrates directly proofing to do the finished product, can be similar to the actual printing results, which is the design of creative companies to produce samples of the physical, packaging and printing enterprises to contact the business, to the CTP supporting, shorten the proofing confirmation process is also a good choice.
