---

In recent years, risography has captured the attention of
printers and artists, especially in independent and selfpublishing
circles, given the technical and visual qualities
it offers. Vivid spot colors, warm finishes and occasional
imperfections in uniformity and register are some of these
attractive features. The book begins by giving readers a brief
history of the Risograph while outlining the basic principles
of the printing process, teaching them artistic printing
techniques that will allow them to print with brighter, more
expressive colors. With profiles of notable printers, examples
of printed products and works from contributing print shops
and information about design studios and artists from around
the world, the book will broaden readers’ printing horizons and
illustrate the extensive variety of possibilities offered by this
relatively easy-to-use and fascinating technique.
