Printers--Lithographic

For information on printers and lithographic services, look under this heading in Yellow Pages®. Lithography is the process that is used to produce posters, maps, books, newspapers, packaging, and various other print-related products.  Lithography is the method that is used almost exclusively to create smooth, mass-produced items that incorporate text or graphics in one way or another. You’ll find printers that also offer services like designing and binding, in addition to printing. Lithographic printing (also known as offset printing) is usually economically feasible for medium to large volume printing.

In Australia, some lithographic enterprises undertake printing of promotional and financial publications in order to create customised products for their clients. These promotional publications include posters, dividers, maps, magazines, flyers, newsletters, wobblers, calendars, invitations and brochures. Examples of financial publications are financial guides, business plans, annual reports, shareholder updates, and company prospectuses.

Lithography also gained popularity as an artistic medium in the early nineteenth century. The centre of lithographic art in the 1800’s was Germany. By the later part of the nineteenth century, French artists had incorporated lithography into mainstream printmaking art.
