Glossary
The world of graphic design, video production, and web development is full of technical terms that are often difficult to understand in everyday life. In this glossary, I explain the most important terms from the fields of print, video, and web – concisely, clearly, and without unnecessary jargon. Whether you want to learn about prepress, video editing, or web design: you'll find the right explanation here.
Missing a term you'd like explained? Just send it my way and I'll add it to the list.
Overprint
A print setting where one ink color is printed directly on top of another instead of knocking out (removing) the color underneath first. Used deliberately for certain effects, but can cause unwanted color mixing if set by accident.
