If you are like so many of us amazed by a beautifully designed poster or magazine cover, buying a chocolate just because of its cool packaging, if you love design in print form, then you’ve come to the right place.

Print design focuses on producing designs printed onto tangible surfaces and products,and we can say that it is the oldest, classic field of Graphic Design, as old as the profession itself.

With this rich history we have a long way to look back, and even more to look forward to as new trends arise and more and more industries modernize their look and appeal, and professional printing and packaging services become more accessible to small brands.

Because of this, learning the key terms, best practices and industry standards of printing is very important for any professional designer.

By the end of this course you will be equipped with all the knowledge you need to accept print design projects (given that you have the skills in the software). You will be able to confidently interact with printer services and clients, knowing how to prepare your work professionally, from adjusting your colors to setting your bleeds.

Your instructor in this Course

My name is Martin Perhiniak, I am a Certified Adobe Instructor and Graphic Designer.

When the first few parts were published of my Graphic Design Theory Series here in Udemy, apart from the overwhelming positive feedback, I got a lot of requests specifically about Print Design, asking whether I will cover it in the series.

Whether you have the other parts already or not, this Course will be a complete learning experience on its own, giving you the essence of my 15+ years of teaching graphic design, and 20+ years of working as a freelance designer at the highest level.

I was fortunate to teach more than a 100.000 students worldwide and was voted as one of the 5 best Adobe instructors of the World. Here in Udemy, some of my courses are all time best sellers and are considered the best in their category.

The challenge of teaching Design Theory is that everything is related, and I have a very effective and unique approach to explore this amazing subject in an enjoyable, easy to understand manner, that will help you to build deep understanding in it fast.

Print Design is such a fundamental part of Graphic Design, and I am thrilled to be your guide in this exciting journey as we explore it in depth.

Of course, as will all my other courses you are protected by an unconditional 30 days guarantee, so you have no risk, nothing to lose but so much to gain.

I wish you a great learning experience and a lot of success as a designer.
