Print-based media techniques can be categorized as hand techniques, mechanical techniques, and digital techniques. Hand techniques include etching, intaglio, linocut, screen print, woodcut, and lithography. Mechanical techniques are letterpress and gravure screen processes. Digital techniques have evolved from photocopying to laser printing, inkjet printing, desktop publishing, and digital screen printing. These techniques allow artists and publishers to create images and transfer designs to paper through manual, mechanized and computer-based methods.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
2. Techniques and Technology Hand techniques and technology: etching, intaglio, linocut, screen print, woodcut, lithography. Mechanical techniques and technology: letterpress, Gravure and Screen process Digital and technology: photocopying, laser printing, inkjet, desktop publishing (DTP), digital screen printing.
3. Etching The technique is supposed that it was introduced by Daniel Hopfer of Germany, who decorated armour, and used the technique to printmaking. Etching soon became the most fashionable printmaking medium. Its huge benefit was that, engraving required special skill in metalworking, etching is reasonably simple to learn, especially for an artist who is skilled in drawing. Hand
4. Techniques intaglio and Technology techniques in which the icon is incised into a surface, known as the matrix or plate. Usually, zinc or copper plates are used as a surface, and the incisions are formed by etching, aquatint, engraving, dry point or mezzotint. To print an intaglio plate, ink is added to the surface and then rubbed with tarlatan cloth to remove most of the excess. At the end, a cloth or old newspaper is used to wipe off the rest of the ink, leaving the icon. A wet bit of paper is then added to the top and the plate and paper are run through a printing press that, through pressure, transfers the ink from the recesses of the plate to the paper. Hand
5. linocut Linocut is a printmaking technique, a alternative of woodcut in which a piece of linoleum is used for the support of the surface. A pattern is cut into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife, of what you would want it to look like, and then the raised areas indicating a reversal of the parts to show printed. The linoleum piece is inked with a roller and then rolled onto paper or cloth. The actual printing can be done by hand or with a press, so makes it quite useful. Hand
6. screen print Involves making a stencil that you would use to put underneath the woven mesh and then pour a bit of colour, from example paint at the side, and then use a roller called a squeegee to roll the paint over the top of the mesh and the stencil, to print the stencil pattern on a bit of paper at the bottom. It is also known as Screen Printing, silkscreen, seriography, and serigraph. Hand
7. woodcut Uses a block of wood that would have to be carved into the shape that you would want. The area cut out will not show up on the paper or cloth, leaving the remains behind to print. The surface is covered with ink by the roller and then pressed against the fabric. Hand
8. lithography It uses stones, plates, metal... Anything that can have a smooth surface. It is used to print text and pictures onto paper and is very useful. It has an amazing artistic look that many artists use to create super artwork. The image may be printed directly from the stone or plate and may be balance out by removing it to a flexible sheet, usually rubber. Hand
9. Letterpress Is a printing technique that prints images and text by a type-high bed printing press and moveable type, where a raised area is inked and then pressed onto a piece of paper. It was created by Johannes Gutenberg in the mid 15th century and was mainly used for books. Mechanical
10. Gravure Mechanical Process in which the image to be printed and engraved into the printing plate, and the printing ink. It is then moved directly on to the paper. Gravure is used mostly for long runs of high quality multicolour printing.
11. Screen process You need a nylon mesh over a wooden frame The mesh is painted with an light sensitive emulsion. When the emulsion dries it will block out the holes in the mesh. The image is projected onto the mesh and then exposed to ultra-violet light. The mesh is then washed and areas of the mesh which have not been exposed to the light will have the emulsion removed. This technique produces a stencil made out of the mesh which can then be built into part of a printing press Paint is the put over the top of the mesh and a squeegee is used to bring the stencil to life. Mechanical
12. Photocopying Digital Photocopying is a very cheap and fast process that makes paper copies of text and images. The photocopiers use heat to get the ink to stay to the paper by using a light sensitive electrostatic charge. The toner ink is positivity charged and sticks to the negativity charged part of the image. Photocopiers are also know as xerography.
14. laser printing Laser printer is a computer printer that prints high quality images and text. The images are produced by a laser beam in the printer, the laser beam projects an image on the paper. Digital
15. inkjet It is the most popular used printer. It is another type of computer printer that gets droplets of ink on the paper to create a digital image It was first developed in the 1950s and started in the 1970s Digital
16. desktop publishing Also called DTP is a personal computer combined with WYSIWYG page layout software. It does it for large scale publishing or small scale local multifunction peripheral output and distribution. Desktop publishing started in the 1985s with the beginning of MacPublisher, the first WYSIWYG layout program. Digital
17.
18. Digital printing uses a technique called “ablation technology”. This involves using a laser to remove silicone and it forms a polyester plate where ink can be laid down. No chemicals are used in this process.
19. All colours can be printed simultaneously making this a fast and efficient process. The equipment cost is expensive but it is cheaper to use this method because of lower running costs.
