Tech/Engineering - Printing & Publishing / rotogravure, offset printing etc.
German term or phrase: Abtastvorlage
This term appears in a letter of reference. The person has completed his training as Reproduktionsfotograf and was subsequently hired by a company where he acquired the following skills:

" Herr K. besitzt Kenntnisse in der Abtastvorlagen-Herstellung für die elektronische Zylindergravur und Rasterherstellung für den halbautomatischen Tiefdruck."

Something to do with cylinder engraving but what are the Abtastvorlagen?
Any printing specialists out there? [hallo Klaus;))]

Explanation:
Since Klaus seems to be otherwise occupied at the moment, I'll try to stand in for him.

'Copy' is a jargon term in printing for any sort of source material for printing (or scanning in this case), and 'abtasten' in this context is scan(ing).

I'd suggest 'preparing copy for scanning' as the translation of Abtastvorlage-Herstellung.
