 | | Photoengraving is the oldest of all photomechanical processes, and traces its history to the very beginning of the photographic art. |
 | | Photoengraving is a method for the production of metallic printing surfaces in relief, usually for illustrating purposes from drawings, photographs, object or textual matter, with the ultimate purpose of multiplying copies thereof by the printing press. |
 | | Today photoengraving is used primarily for specialty printing, such as, foil stamping, embossing on paper, cork branding dies for the wine industry, wood branding dies for decorative cases and chocolate imprinting and molding plates. |
