الطباعة بالكليشه
Zincography is a lithographic printing method that uses zinc plates only while gravure printing uses electro-mechanically engraved copper image carriers (etched plates or cylinders) (كليشهات أو اسطوانات منقوشة) almost exclusively. Again, a zincograph is usually etched in relief while gravure plates are etched in recess.
