We began printing Wednesday (October 7th). I was there to witness the
‘birth’ of STEEP DREAMS, so to speak.
After so many months (indeed years!) of work, it was a joy seeing the
printing machine spitting out the pages with such wonderful colours.
I am now beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and I feel as
though I am setting off on the final summit push!
My fingers are crossed for a trouble free printing process.
Can’t wait to feel and flip through that first copy!
Hana and Ray (STEEP DREAMS layout and colour restitution respectively) make
a final check in my office prior to printing.
My good friend Gihad next to the machine that will print all 496 pages of
STEEP DREAMS.
Religious checking the ink thickness every few pages. There is a very
sophisticated machine that does it automatically, but it is best doing it
manually for top results.
One of STEEP DREAMS’s 248 plates being loaded onto the printing machine.
One of the 31 fascicles, just out from the printing machine. After the ink
dries, it will still need to be printed overleaf, laminated on both sides,
cut, and folded before it is sent to the bookbindery.
Cleaning-up the drums after a tiny white dot was spotted on one of the
fascicule’s photos.
Problems have solutions! Deciding how best to solve a little issue that came
up during the printing process.
ur are my superman !!!
