Perfecting is a term used in sheet-fed printing when a sheet is being printed on both sides in one pass through the press.
Straight Printing is a term used when printing one side of a sheet per pass. Multiple passes can be made on each side until the desired ink colors are printed on the sheet.
At Ries Graphics we can print one to eight colors per pass or up to five colors, two sides (perfecting).
Perfecting takes less time than straight printing.
