Description Offset printing is an important application of printing. It is a mechanical process that involves printing from a metal plate that has been offset from the surface to be printed. There are two types of offset printing, which are letterpress and lithography. With letterpress, a plate is inked and then paper is pressed against it. With lithography, the plate is coated with a light-sensitive material and then exposed to an image. The light hardens the material in those areas, creating the image.
