State of the Art: Digital Printing Big commercial pre-press houses have the tools to produce color-accurate digital prints, but for independent photographers, designers, and consumers, it's been a tough row to hoe. The confluence of the latest imaging software with a new generation of printers changes that. Now it's possible for individuals and small businesses to produce professional-quality prints at a comparatively modest cost. Mon, 8 Apr 2002
