Are these really the traits graphic designers lack? I don’t understand why designers WOULDN’T know these essential prepress checks?

I wonder if you’ll do a post about “10 Skills Art-workers Lack But Graphic Designers Have” — that would be interesting!

Nice post.

I guess I’m an art worker – what I do is fix all those errors you mentioned at my print store. Boy is it astounding to get the artwork in for a HUGE ad agency, and they have failed to do the simplest things – RGB artwork, spot colors for a CMYK job, no bleeds, and fonts that aren’t embedded. And while crop marks are nice, we often end up removing them from the document and inserting our own, because the designer decides to put in crop marks that are too short, too small, and too close to the original artwork. Numbers 1,4,8,&10 are the most frequent problems that I see in regards to agencies and professional freelancers.

Its a fact that Print design process is whole lot a difficult task than to design the graphics on computers. And for getting the actual Creative Output, the graphic designer must have the knowledge about all tiny details regarding printing process.
