Text - the body matter of a page or book, as distinguished from the headings.

Text/writing papers - A general term used to describe paper with fine or speciality textures that is used for printing. Usually made from chemical wood pulp, sometimes with cotton fibre content. Often writing grade papers will feature a ‘watermark’.

TIF or TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) - The most common pixel format; it is supported by virtually all systems. Among other things, this format is suitable for the data exchange of colour images and gray values as well as various levels of resolution and sizes.

Tint

Trapping
- The deliberate overlap of adjacent colours to minimise the effects of misregistration of printed materials.

Trimming
