Chapter 5 - Micro Printing Flashcards
What is Micro Printing?
Microprinting is the production of recognizable patterns or characters in a
printed medium at a scale that typically requires magnification to read with the naked eye.
To the unaided eye, the text may appear as a solid line.
WHAT IS VINYL PRINTING ?
Vinyl t-shirt printing, also known as heat transfer vinyl (HTV) printing, is a method of
customizing apparel by cutting out designs from heat transfer vinyl sheets and then pressing them onto a t-shirt using high heat
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DIGITAL AND VINYL PRINTING?
Digitally-printed signs will not last as long as vinyl. Whereas vinyl signs are likely to last 5-10 years or more, digitally-printed signs tend to last about three years before pronounced effects from the elements can take hold (unless the sign is laminated which can add another 2-3 years of life expectancy)
