Examples.

Example pages introduce the students to the particular process, with a brief overview of what it is accompanied by a real example. The aim of this is so they can see what the final outcome could be and understand the aesthetics before following through with it.

Step by Step Guides.

Illustrated step by step guides walk the reader through each print process. The idea of this is so that the book can accompany them in the print room and aid them when undergoing the particular printing technique without the help from a tutor.
