Letterpress printing is a printing process in which inked type or raised designs are pressed into thick, high-quality paper. It produces high-quality, crisp, and sharp prints, making it suitable for fine typography and intricate designs. The result is a beautiful, three-dimensional and tactile printed page with depressed inked characters or images. This is why you can feel the indentation of the type or image on the paper.
Letterpress printing is typically used for single-color or limited-color printing because each color requires a separate pass through the press. It has a rich history and is often associated with classic books, invitations, and other elegant printed materials.
