  • REGISTRATION MARKS - marks put into artwork to ensure perfect alignment or registration during the print process.
  • REVERSED OUT - type or images that appear the opposite to how they have been created, for example white on a black background becomes black on a white background.
  • RESOLUTION - the number of dots per inch (DIP) in an image or photograph. The higher the DPI, the better the resolution and print detail.
