New technologies in the field of print preparation. Computers have revolutionized the field of prepress rapidly since twenty years ago. As technology develops photo Typesetter, PC with monitor and keyboard; which previously worked with photo camera reproduction and display of contacts, until the scanner laser.Pada the same time, due to the rapid development of media electronics, the boundary between prepress and offset printing have been complementary. With the GTO-DI Direct Imaging Technology introduced by Heidelberg in 1991, has created a connection / direct connection between the first prepress and printing.

Heidelberg Druckmaschinen foresight has become a reality in this case makes the computer can print the same once without rotating through / via the plate and film. This technology has the advantage of a real / apparent. Until now, few included in the print production stage. Currently a large portion of the process from idea to realization can be done / completed digitally. Also, in conjunction with conventional prepress, digital prepress with then we can save time, with the film or computer to computer to plate.

The innovative developments are also proposed terminology baru.Dalam print industry we talk about bits and bytes, C-To-Press technology, PostScript, RIP, scanners, and digital technology in the field kamre digital.Berkembangnya prepress, printing, and postpress with proven hardware and software that is good, offering useful tools to meet productivity.

CTP technology are described below. Computer-To-Plate, the process of image or images on printing plates. This process is done in stages "prepress" - print preparation process. CTP also called "direct-to-plate" means the process of making printing plates directly from the (file) the computer. Industry trends are moving toward digital, more and more use of CTP found in the printing industry, especially developed countries. The use of computers in addition to economic issues, given the expensive labor costs the flexibility aspect of computer use that eliminates the process of reproduction is an important consideration changes to the CTP.

Here are a few things to know for a printing press in Indonesia about the CTP, the advantages and disadvantages in an attempt anticipation.
