From the smallest labels to our largest press sheet (19" x 25.5"), digital proofing and platemaking are achieved with a new Heidelberg computer-to-plate four-up platesetter. Heidelberg technology continues in the pressroom, where the choice of presses is dependent on the job size and run length. Bates Printing has also maintained its letterpress capability, both hand-fed and automatic, for special imprinting work. In addition to creative effects for artists and museums, our letterpress process is used to print shopping bags, tissue paper, and other unusual substrates.
