Cool. Thanks.

Apologies,I do make.

Sorry, Race. Somehow I misunderstood and thought that you had a printing background.

Right up the beginning of the 2000’s there used to be these guys who were employes at printing companies who took the film that was created from designs (one film, per color: in 4-color process this is Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) and used that film to “burn” the metal plates that were then used on the large printing presses. Those guys were sometimes called, “strippers.”

It’s all done by computer/machine now. There aren’t many full-time “strippers” left.
