What is "post press"?
Post press refers to the set of processes and operations performed on printed materials after the initial printing has been completed. These processes may include trimming, binding, laminating, embossing, foiling, and adding any additional features, as well as packaging. The goal of post press is to prepare the printed materials for distribution and use, ensuring they meet the required specifications and quality standards.
