Computer to plate technology: Flexo has a number of significant benefits to the newspaper printer, advertiser and reader. These have been well recognized, but until recently, lack of a computer to plate system for flexo has limited adoption of flexo technology. As a flexo computer to plate system is being introduced in early 2003, it is anticipated that a number of newspapers will decide in favor of the flexo process.
