How to explain trapping...

[Andymac]

.....now if a designer had to print a trapped and an untrapped job, I think they would get it pretty fast.

If a male designer had to go out and trap a beaver, they'd never get laid.

I'm guessing so but is trapping covered in the Screen Printing Today book?

[Andymac]

a bit. Like anything in screenprinting, you have to do it to understand it, then do it a bunch of times to do it well.

I somehow feel partially responsible for this thread.

I hate people who don't understand trapping.

Ha! No man- that first print we did for you had a decent understanding of trapping when you first sent it, and I had you come over so I could show you the finer tricks. AND- you got it really quickly and did the work yrself. I'm talking about some designers who seem completely unwilling to learn, as if it's not part of their job for some reason.

Also- IT'S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT YOU RUSS, GAAAWWWWWD.
