1.

The relief printing is tehnique that uses the process of embossing of the shaped relief created on deeply etched or engraved steel form, into various graphic materials (paper, cardboard, leather, canvas, foil), for decorative reasons.

Explanation:

Most often it is performed as a so-called 'Blind printing (blindruck)', therefore, without transferring color from printing surfaces, but may also be printed with color or applied to sheets previously printed in color by another printing technique. Paint, also under pressure and elevated temperature, can be transferred from special films (foil imprint).

It is a technique that uses clichés to make indentations or bulges on paper. The type and thickness of the material depends on how strong the bulge can be - in principle, the thicker and softer the printing material, the more pronounced the blank printing.

2.

The relief printing idea has become popular across so many cultures as it presented opportunity to multiply information and communicate within its own and others society.

Explanation:

The idea of printing was set in a brand or brand by which shepherds branded their horses or cows. The principle of stamping was already known in the cuneiform cultures of the ancient East (Sumerians, Babylon, Egypt). The symbols are stamped on the clay disk with the help of stamps. In fact, this disk was the first example of printing related text. The next step is to print the coins. This was followed by "stone" books and clay tile books, later papyrus scrolls and, from the 2nd century BC - parchment books. Then, in the days of Aristotle and Plato, manuscripts were published to the world.

It is commonly applied to diaries, business folders, business cards, book covers, brochures, diplomas and various other promotional printed materials for decorative purposes, but it is most importantly and widely used for Braille, a tactile writing system used by people who are visually impaired. It is traditionally written with embossed paper.

Explanation:

Braille has been used since the 19th century as one of the basic ways of learning and communicating in the lives of blind and visually impaired people. It is adapted in almost all languages in the form of a basic alphabet consisting of 64 dots. More recently, it has become mandatory on pharmaceutical drugs (EU 2004/27 / EC) and is slowly expanding to other areas to facilitate the life of the blind and partially sighted community.

Using blank printing in relief printing, the paper is recessed or raised by about two thicknesses of one sheet, and the effect of relief is achieved.
