Definition
Letterpress is a relief printing technique that uses movable type to create impressions on paper. Individual letters and images are arranged, inked, and then pressed onto the paper to transfer the design. Think of it as an old-school typewriter ⌨️ that physically stamps the page. Each impression is unique, often with a tactile feel due to the pressure. Unlike digital printing, letterpress creates a distinctive debossed effect. ✍️ It's prized for its craftsmanship and vintage aesthetic. Letterpress printing is commonly used for invitations and fine art prints.
