German term or phrase: Prägebereich
"Veredlung von Oberflächen im Druck- und Prägebereich".

Den Begriff "Prägebereich" habe ich im Glossar als "stamped area" gefunden, was mir jedoch nicht ganz richtig erscheint. Oder ist es wirklich so?

Enhancement of surfaceses in the print and embossing field
Explanation:
Does it mean surface treatment in the places where ink is layed and embossing performed or general (paper) surface improvement to benefit the printing and embossing trade??? I suspect the latter, because the former doesn't make sense (I say this as an ex-lithographer, tho my knowledge of actual presswork is limited). The answer is a lame compromise which serves either. Else I would say ...in the printing and embossing industry

But the term \"Bereich\" is tricky without more context. Does it refer to an area on a page or to the area in the sense of method, etc.?
