How Printing Ink/ Pantone Colours are Made
In my 15 years of design experience I am embarrassed to say that I have not once thought about how the ink that I designed for is made! I even worked with a printer for a few of those years and it never occurred to me that there was an art to the process of making those inks that came in the shiny silver cans!
This YouTube video goes for about 9 minutes and you might be thinking that watching the ink making process for 9 minutes is 9 minutes of your life that you will never get back! BUT, once you start watching I am sure, like me, you’ll be glued to your seat and watch the whole thing! It is very interesting and the presenter is the president of the company and his passion for his craft is admirable.
Enjoy, yours in ink!
Paul.
