Ironically, she adds, advances in computer technology have allowed letterpress designers to use photopolymer plates--which contain the image and text to be printed--in place of hand-set type. "I hope the people who are printing now--me included--are helping develop an audience that will be cultivated and maintained so our craft can survive," she says...
