Calendar template
A good calendar template should be able to change the font of the text, change the font size, and change the font color in the same software. Currently, many calendar templates on the Internet cannot meet this requirement.
The calendar template can be produced in various shapes for different screens to call. Take the monthly calendar as an example:
1. Long bar The long bar calendar is mainly suitable for being placed at the bottom of the screen, generally in a row of 15 days.
2. Longitudinal Longitudinal monthly calendars are mainly suitable for left and right sides of the screen. Generally, a vertical calendar is arranged for 15 days.
3. Fang Kuaizi The Fangkuai monthly calendar is generally arranged in a row, that is, 7 days in a row, and most of them are arranged symmetrically with photos.
Design and manufacture of calendars and desk calendars
First, the design must be different from person to person
The design of calendars and desk calendars varies from person to person. For example, the design of children and the elderly has different styles and formats.
Second, the design should take into account the actual size and aspect ratio of the wall calendar and desk calendar.
Some wall calendars and desk calendars are square, some are longitudinally long, and some are horizontally rectangular. The actual size and the ratio of length to width should be considered in the design. Try to design and make it look beautiful.
Third, the annual calendar can be hollowed out separately
The annual calendar is crowded due to its large amount of text. In order to make it easy to distinguish, the general calendar is placed separately under the calendar.
It is easy to see clearly because there are not many texts on the calendar. In order to highlight the picture on the calendar, you can just copy and copy the text on the calendar. After pasting, it seems that the text is hollow, just like the text directly printed on the screen.
Printing of wall calendars and desk calendars If designing and manufacturing wall calendars and desk calendars is the first process, printing it out with an inkjet printer is the second process.
1. Selection of printer
It should be said that whether it is Epson, Canon or HP inkjet printers are used to complete the printing of calendars and desk calendars. The problem is that not all models of their printers are suitable.
1. The annual calendar and calendar for hanging are best for printers with A3 + format or above. If you use an A4 format printer, the maximum width is 21 cm. If you use it on the wall, it will always be narrow. If you choose The maximum width of the A3 + format printer can reach 33 cm, which is a lot of Fengguang, and the grade has been increased by at least two files because of the increase of the width of the format.
A. Canon printer The Canon A3 + printer is very awkward to use and it is not easy to choose the right model. For many reasons, Canon gave up 6 colors and switched to 4 and 8 colors. 4 colors are not suitable for photo printing. The problem with 8 colors is that the durability of the print head is not ideal.
If you feel that you can overcome these: use the original ink cartridges for 4 colors, at least the print quality will still be good; the print quality of 8-color compatible inks exceeds the 6-color printer. But there is also a fatal flaw that has to be reminded: the custom paper size of the Canon A3 + printer is too short, and the longest can only print more than 50 cm, which seriously hinders the personalized calendar printing.
B. HP printers HP A3 + printers have 6-color models. The B8338, which is about 1,800 yuan, basically meets the print quality requirements. The subsequent paper feed channel solves the problem of "difficult paper feed" where any paper can be fed. , The custom paper size that can print up to 1.27 meters can meet the printing needs of all long pictures. The printing speed of the top two Epson printers feels cool to use. You can use non-waterproof photo paper and less waste ink The lowest operating cost can be achieved, and the integrated structure of the head box eliminates the expensive expense of replacing the print head.
The only regret is that the stability of the continuous supply is still not ideal. According to the netizens who have used it, it is super cool to use when it fails, and the head is big when the fault is eliminated. In the final analysis, the life of the print head with the integrated structure of the head box is limited.
C. Epson printers Epson A3 + printers are actually divided into high, medium and low grades. Even the low-end 1390 printers cost more than 3,000 yuan. The price of the remaining two models is 1 to 2 times that of the 1390 printer. The 1390 printer can be customized up to 1.1 meters long. The photo print quality is roughly equivalent to HP's B8338 printer, but the 1390 printer's print head is durable, uses a wide range of inks, and can use pigment inks.
2. Inkjet printer desk calendar printing that uses a printing desk calendar is much simpler because the format and print length are not so demanding. Almost all A4 format photo printers can be used.
A. Canon printers A4 format Canon printers have many models. At present, there are various models from three hundred yuan of four-color IP1880 to more than one thousand yuan of five-color IP4500. Canon calls all its printers as "photo printers". However, regardless of the quality of the photo printing, whether it is four-color or five-color, unless you use the original ink cartridge, the quality of the printed photos is still not satisfactory, so you should pay attention to the use of compatible ink Canon printer calendar printing: home can not be suitable for commercial use.
B. HP printers In addition to business office printers, HP printers can generally print in 6 colors, but 6-color printing is divided into two cases: one is the integrated head box; the other is the split head box. HP 6-color printing, even with compatible inks, can basically meet the quality requirements of desk calendar printing, but there is one thing to note: HP uses "U" -type paper feed in the printing of thick paper such as photo paper often has problems with paper feed.
C. Epson printers Epson printers are mainly for four-color and six-color printing. The three advantages of durable print heads, relatively stable continuous supply, and the ability to use pigment inks are not possessed by the other two printer manufacturers.
2. Selection of printing media
1. Photo paper
There are many types of print media for wall calendars and desk calendars, and photo paper and inkjet paper are commonly used.
For wall calendars and desk calendars that can be displayed on both sides after turning over, it is best to use photo paper that can be printed on both sides. The quality of the printing on the front and back of this photo paper is the same. It can reduce 1/2 of the paper and is more convenient for post-processing and binding. .
Thicker inkjet paper can also be used for calendar and desk calendar printing. Of course, you can also choose some special photo paper, such as gold foil, silver foil and so on.
2. Coated paper
Coated paper is generally divided into printed coated paper and printable coated paper for inkjet printers. Printable coated paper is classified as the photo paper mentioned above, so only the coated paper for printing is discussed here. .
In recent years, the continuous evolution of heating devices for inkjet printers, the survival of the fittest has allowed some more stable heating devices to be retained, and the coated paper used for printing can also print beautiful pictures on inkjet printers.
Coated paper generally has the same front and back sides, with a variety of glossy and calendered surfaces. Because coated paper has more advantages in printing calendars and desk calendars than photo paper, especially embossed special paper in coated paper, In the printing of wall calendars and desk calendars, it can show its uniqueness.
3. Actual printing
The actual printing of the wall calendar and desk calendar is basically the same as the usual photo printing, but the two aspects of paper size setting and picture margin are commonly used. Here are some introductions to these two aspects.
1. Custom paper size Usually photo printing is A3, A4, or 5 inches, 6 inches, just select and list directly from the printer driver, and calendars and desk calendars are generally not the standard paper used, such as desk calendar printing according to desk calendar The size of the shelf determines the size of the printed picture. So often need to customize the paper size.
No matter which model of printer has a choice of "custom paper size" in the paper size selection area, a selection box will pop up after clicking, at this time you can fill in the width and length of the paper to be printed.
On many printers, there are sensors for checking the paper width. Load 10 cm wide paper into it and set the print width to 20 cm. Check the paper width before the printer starts printing. It is clear that you are "joking" it, so it Only print the 10 cm picture, and the 10 cm printer outside the paper will refuse to eject ink, so the printed picture is actually 1/2 of the original picture.
2. Reserve margins for pictures
Since desk calendars and wall calendars generally use "custom paper size", you can not set the "borderless" setting to print, that is, there will be 3-4 mm white borders around the photo. If you want to print as borderless, you can only set the paper Cut out the white border with a larger one.
If you want to leave the printing desk calendar and wall calendar with white borders around, for example, leave a white border with a width of 1 cm, you can generally design them with white borders in the picture production, or you can set the paper borders in the printout. If you want to stay as wide as you want, it is more flexible to set the paper margin in the printout.
How to reserve the picture margin in the printout depends mainly on the printing software used. Among them, the setting of ACDSee software on this issue feels more convenient.
Let's take ACDSee software printing as an example to see how to set the printing paper margin.
A. Open ACDSee, find the picture catalog to be printed and click to select the picture to be printed. You can select N pictures at a time, then click "File" in the menu bar, and then click "Print" from the drop-down menu to enter "Print Layout ".
B. After entering the "Print Layout", click "Page Setup" on the upper right to set the left, right, top and bottom margins of the picture. Chapter 4 Post-processing after printing of calendars and desk calendars Even if they are designed and printed, they cannot be called calendars or desk calendars, because calendars and desk calendars have a problem of how to hang or place them. The beauty, waterproof, anti-fading, etc. There is also a problem with the peritoneum of the picture.
1. Peritoneum
1. The role of the peritoneum on the surface of the picture Why do you still need to perform peritoneal treatment on the photo after printing? What is its role?
A. Beauty Since it is the peritoneum, that is, there is a film on the surface of the medium, then this film is very particular. There are matt, high-gloss, suede, cloth, laser, luminous, etc. for users to choose.
B. Friction resistance The surface of the photo paper is very smooth. The smoother the surface, the less resistant it is to rubbing. If you pay little attention to the photo surface, it will be worn out. The peritoneum can protect the photo surface better and solve the problem of surface friction.
C. Waterproof and waterproof photo paper generally has a certain waterproof ability, and pigment ink also has a waterproof effect, but this ability is limited, but now many people like to use non-waterproof photo paper because it is cheap. Now many people are also using dye ink , Dye ink does not have waterproof performance, the waterproof problem can be solved after the peritoneum.
D. Fading resistance Fading resistance is an important feature of the retroperitoneum. Wall calendars and desk calendars are hung and placed, and the time requirement is at least 1 year, so whether it can be fade-free in this 1 year is a minimum requirement, due to the environment and hanging placement of various places and users The specific location is different, and the photos are faded differently. Photographs after the surface of the peritoneum will increase fading resistance several times compared to those without the peritoneum.
2. The method of peritoneum on the surface of the picture The main methods used for the surface treatment of the photo are mainly shower film, hot film, plastic packaging, cold mounting and other methods.
A. Laminating film Simply speaking, the laminating film is to apply a special liquid evenly on the surface of the photo paper and then curing it by UV lamp irradiation. This is the laminating machine. The film is characterized by strong adhesion fastness, no foam, uniform thickness, good sealing performance, and it is not easy to appear snowflakes. The key point is that the cost is cheap, or even less than one yuan per square meter of material. There are many types of laminating machines, which are characterized by high equipment price and huge volume, so the laminating machine is mainly suitable for a large number of professional users.
B. Thermal film Thermal film is first used in the printing industry, just like using a very thin special film to adhere to the surface of the paper through high temperature and high pressure. Due to the effect of high temperature and high pressure, the film adhering to the surface of the paper is almost invisible. There are also many types of hot film, generally sold in roll drums, and the most commonly used roll film is 30 cm. The characteristic of the thermal film is that the cost of the peritoneum is cheap and the quality is high, but the price of the equipment is higher. There are more types of the thermal film compared with the shower film. However, after the thermal film, the excess film must be cut off. There is curling. Due to the difference in function and operation, the price of the hot film machine is very different. Special attention is paid to the fact that the simple hot film machine is difficult to operate and the function is not strong, resulting in a high scrap rate and poor peritoneal quality. Save money but not effort or worry.
C. Plastic encapsulation uses a two-layer software film, sandwiching the photo, the film is larger than the photo, and then the photo is affixed to the film by the heating of the plastic encapsulation machine, and the main thing is that the glue around the film is melted and bonded, like The photos are packed in a sealed envelope, which is sealed by plastic packaging. After the plastic film becomes hard and brittle, the photos can not be curled and stored. At the same time, because the plastic film is limited by the size, it is generally below A3 format, so it is mainly for small-size photos. The characteristic of plastic packaging is that the equipment is cheap but the material cost is relatively high, and the material size is limited.
D. Cold mounting Paste a layer of transparent film with adhesive on the back to the surface of the work. This is cold mounting. Since it is pasted, it does not need high temperature, and the smaller size can even be done manually without equipment. The cold laminating film is a roll package, there are many types, the commonly used are high gloss film and matte film, and there are many kinds of format sizes. The cold laminating equipment is the cheapest, the operation is simple and fast, but the material cost is high and the cold laminating quality is not as good Hot films and laminating films, especially cold laminating films, will shrink gradually over time and the temperature changes, distorting the photo.
Second, the suspension of the calendar depends on the actual situation and the medium used after printing. Even if it is peritoneum, it does not mean that the later work is over. If it becomes a calendar, there is still a question of how to hang it. At the same time, there is a problem that can be read. This is the hanging of the calendar.
1. The usual practice is to turn the pages of the iron ring
At present, almost all the calendars on the market are made of iron-turning pages, which has the advantages of simple production and convenient use.
2. The main equipment and consumables are punching first, so the main equipment is the punching machine, and the stationery shop is called the iron ring binding machine. Consumables are mainly binding iron rings and hooks. The binding iron rings have different diameters, generally black and white, and are generally sold in stationery stores. The function is to bind each piece of the calendar. Hooks are a tool for hanging calendars on nails or ropes. There are many kinds of hooks, and you can also make them with iron wire.
A. Iron ring binding machine (punching machine) There are many types and types of punching and binding machine, generally there are square hole, long hole and round hole punching machine. The punching of wall calendars and desk calendars mostly uses square hole punching machines, which are also called iron ring binding machines. Therefore, friends who buy punching machines should pay attention, not all punching machines are suitable for wall calendars and desk calendars.
B. The ordinary iron ring punching and binding machine with punching knife is used for punching with fixed punching knife. The position and distance of the knife hole are fixed, and the outermost ends of the calendar will encounter exactly the hole position. The two ends are exactly in the hole, or one end is just in the hole, which will form a gap and affect the appearance. In order to solve this problem, there is a method of "drawing knife" for the iron ring punch binding machine, namely Remove the punching knife on one or both sides of the paper, and eliminate this hole to solve the problem. It's nice to have a knife-drawing function, but the price of an iron ring punching and binding machine with a knife-drawing function is also good. You need to add three zeros to the back.
C. Ome TD-460GS iron ring binding machine The iron ring binding machine has made a brief introduction in the front. Let's take a look at the specific situation of an iron ring binding machine that can be used for calendar and desk calendar binding. The introduction is Europe. Mei TD-460GS iron ring binding machine.
3. Production method
A. Punch. You can use a piece of waste paper to push the left side against the "adjustable paper stopper", push down the handle and pull out the paper to check the hole position. If you need to adjust the top margin, use the "edge adjustment" on the back of the puncher. Button â€, if there is a deviation between the left and right hole distances, adjust it by moving the“ adjustable paper block â€left and right. After adjustment, you can use another piece of waste paper to punch and confirm. If it has been adjusted, you can start punching. The thickness of the paper printed at one time varies from model to model, so please read the instruction manual.
B. How to punch a puncher that is longer or shorter than the A4 side length and does not have the drawout function. Punching shorter than the length of the A4 side is mainly to pay attention to the left and right movement to adjust the "adjustable paper block" and then punching. In order to facilitate the positioning of each punching, a hole position table can be posted on the table surface of the punching machine For reference, so that you can test without waste paper. Generally, a hole map is attached to the surface of the punching machine. However, the hole map of the manufacturer is very nonstandard, and most of them are different from the actual hole position. It is estimated that if there is no gap, it is happening that it happened when it was posted. The specific method of attaching the hole position table is to punch holes with waste paper first, then cut the hole position, paste it on the table surface of the hole machine after aligning the actual hole position of the hole machine, the hole position table can be It can be easily adjusted as a reference table before punching. Center line: Paper longer than the A4 side length is more troublesome in punching. To facilitate punching, you can remove the "adjustable paper block" so that you can punch, but in order to print the hole specification, you need to first The center line of a hole position is drawn on the punching machine, so whether it is punching in the middle of the paper, punching on both sides or even punching all, it can be solved.
C. The iron rings with different thicknesses that fit into the iron ring and the iron ring binding machine are sold in stationery stores and some consumable stores. Hang the iron ring with the appropriate thickness on the "iron ring hanging teeth" of the binding machine. It's impossible to hang it upside down, so there is no difference between positive and negative. When inserting a perforated desk calendar into the iron ring, it is recommended that the back of the desk calendar be facing you and then be inserted into the iron ring
D. Close the iron ring After wearing the iron ring, remove the iron ring that has been hung from the paper and put it into the "binding slot", then slowly press down the "handle" and finally take it out.
E. How to close the iron ring with a calendar that is longer than the A4 side length The only difference is that the calendar that is longer than the A4 side length cannot be inserted into the binding slot to close the iron ring. You can only close the iron ring manually or make an extrusion tool to complete the closing Get on the iron ring.
F. Hook The hook is actually a raised wire in the middle. Unless you can pass through the middle of the closed iron ring, you should put it in before closing the iron ring.
