DEF – A relief printing
process for reproducing texts
using moveable type,
electrotypes, stereotypes,
rubber or plastic plates. An
ink-coated roller is passed
over the type or plate, the ink
adhering only to the relief
surface, the image area. The
inked type or plate is then
pressed against the paper to
transfer the ink to it. Source
OBS – Thermography and
flexography are basically
letterpress processes. Source
DEF – Procédé d\'impression
directe utilisant une forme
d\'impression en relief rigide
(caractères mobiles, gravures,
clichés) et des encres
visqueuses. On obtient le plus
souvent le texte par
composition manuelle ou
mécanique et les illustrations
