Artwork (graphic arts)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Artwork layout)

Artwork (also known as art layoutdrawing) is a type of drawing that serves a graphical representation of an image for its reproduction onto a substrate via various processes, such as silkscreen, label making and other printing methods. Transfer of the image often involves a photographic process.

Historically, some types of artworks were prepared on clear polyester drafting film or similar media for strength, durability and dimensional stability.[1] Modern artwork may be stored electronically, such as those created in Adobe Illustrator file format (.ai).
