offset printing is a technique which involves transferring (offset) your design from a metal plate to a rubber blanket or roller and then to a printing surface. this process is also known as lithography, and is perfect for large production runs such as newspapers, magazines, catalogs, and books. the life span of the plates is prolonged simply because the print media doesn’t have contact with the plates. the rubber blankets adhere to the print media surface to give a sharp final image; this allows offset printers to print on more difficult surfaces such as canvas, plastic, wood or cloth.
