While modern prepress techniques can work wonders, they can’t do much to rescue a low resolution image captured with your cell phone camera.

Higher screen rulings or stochastic printing might require a higher resolution.

Variable Data Printing (VDP)

Digital printing technology that enables elements such as text, graphics, charts and graphs, and imagery to be changed from one printed piece to the next without slowing or stopping the press. Leverages data on recipients, enabling mass cust-omization to each individual or household in large runs, as opposed to mass-production of one version. Also known as Variable Input Printing (VIP).
