PRINT 05 PREPRESS WORKFLOW & CTP -- Streamlining the Prepress Process

Prior to the show, Citiplate Imaging Technologies announced it had developed a family of photopolymer formulations that enable production of no-process (on-press development) thermal and violet digital plates, as well as conventionally imaged plates. Plates are to be sold under co-branding arrangements, with the thermal technology said to already be in controlled sales and the violet plate scheduled for release in late 2005 or early 2006.
