Letterpress

Type of workshop: Departmental Workshop

The letterpress workshop is equipped for the realization of various types of work with the technique of relief printing, from small graphics to business stationery to demanding graphic sheets, volumes, and original author's books, combining hand-typed text with multi-colored illustrations. It can be printed both on simple hand presses and at a higher number of copies on proofing and printing machines enabling precise printing and precise registration. The equipment includes registers and drawers with typeset letters in various stages of wear, from small multi-point to large poster wooden letters, ornaments, decorative lines, and plenty of typesetting material. It is of course also possible to print from polymer or metal plates, polymer plates can also be produced directly in the workshop in limited quantities under certain conditions. Various modern technologies and materials can be experimented with to make printing matrices.
