mechanical
Definition
Camera-ready, final layout of all elements of a work to be reproduced through a commercial printing process. It is a pasteup of the typeset text and images on a sheet of paperboard, usually with a clear sheet (called overlay) used as the top cover on which directions for the printshop (printery) may be written. Also called mechanical art or pasteup, it is used where a computer generated artwork is not available.
