Talking about Improving the Publishing and Printing Quality of Books and Periodicals (I)

The development of computer technology has given wings to the publishing and printing industries. Nowadays, no matter the type of publication of books and periodicals, the binding design of books and periodicals, the printing effect, the quality of paper, and the publication cycle of books and periodicals, it has made great progress compared to the era of lead printing. At the same time, it has also led to the development of related industries. This is gratifying. The results of Kega. However, there are also some unsatisfactory problems in the currently published books and newspapers, such as the error rate is a very prominent problem. Nowadays, whether it is a newspaper or a book, it is easy to find typos, variant characters, disease sentences and other errors in newspapers or books. Some books and periodicals often find that ink is badly uneven, wrong code, missing code, page drop, and printing plate. Skew and even cut off quality problems. In addition, there are many low-level boring works in content. Even more authoritative reference books, dictionaries, etc. will all have obvious errors. In books and periodicals, books and magazines that are really fine are still not much. Why does this happen? Can we overcome this phenomenon and achieve the high quality, high speed and high speed of publication and printing? I believe that there are objective and subjective reasons for such phenomena. To improve the quality of publishing and printing of books and periodicals, it must be achieved through the joint efforts and close cooperation of all relevant departments. Let's talk about some of my shallow ideas.

The publication of books and periodicals must go through the following procedures, namely: the author's copywriting, the editorial review department's review draft, the printing unit's entry, typesetting, proofreading, revision, editing department proofreading (generally three times), printing unit modification, output, printing, binding, and issuance. All the above links, regardless of which part of the link a problem occurs, will have an impact on the quality of the publication of books and publications and even result in waste products. Therefore, in order to improve the quality of books and periodicals publishing, the technical quality and sense of responsibility of all staff should be raised first. All aspects of the operation were picked up and operators from all aspects were picked up.

I. Writing

Judging from the publications now published, the authors of the book are really varied, and their writing levels are also good and they are not involved. Therefore, in terms of content, some authors do not have any good material to write, while others only write some imaginative articles, hacked content, celebrity secret history, brilliant history and other low-level interesting things to the public; at the writing level, Some authors do not write on their own and their language proficiency is not high. Therefore, typos, variant characters, and disease sentences often appear in writing. In addition, some authors write only stare at the banknotes. In addition to the content is poor, the language, disease, typos, variants, etc., are everywhere, and these authors have no sense of responsibility and professional ethics so that the article is full of errors. Therefore, we hope that the author must have his own professional ethics, choose healthy content that promotes human and social progress, write an attitude that is responsible for the social impact of the articles he writes, and strive for excellence in his own work. To produce more anti-psychic food for humanity. In addition, we must have self-knowledge and open-mindedness. We must be courageous to consult other people for the shortcomings of their own writing. Please have knowledgeable people help review the manuscripts, correct the contents of the articles, correct typos, words, and disease sentences, and try to avoid mistakes. Hazardous readers have made a crucial first step in improving the quality of printed publications.

Second, the editor

The publication of books and magazines must be reviewed and approved by the publishing unit. The publishing company should handle the author's manuscript carefully, and strictly respect the quality of the content of the manuscript. The grammar, faulty sentences, linguistic errors, typos, variants, and textual units of the textual narration Standard writing and other quality standards, for the manuscripts that do not meet the quality requirements, proposed amendments, pointed out the direction of revision, and returned authors' amendments. And put the quality of good layout, printing, etc.

Third, enter

When the manuscript is sent to the printing factory, it must first be entered through a computer. Now the general printing factory has a special person responsible for the manuscript for verification and process design. In the initial inspection of the manuscript, some problems will be found, mostly on the chart, such as whether the picture meets the requirements for publication and printing. Errors in writing (such as typos, variants, and disease sentences) cannot be corrected. As a typewriter, it is basically the first point of printing books and periodicals. During the entry process, if you find typos, variants, etc., you can correct them (of course, this must be noted: for editors to check). If there are more errors, you can notify the customer (publisher) to handle them together. In addition, as the entry personnel, we must first ensure that their most basic duties, in the input process to reduce errors as much as possible, we must avoid the missing sentences, missing lines, missing segments and other phenomena, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to the next process . For those characters or formulas that are not familiar to you, the symbols in the formula, foreign languages, or ethnic minorities, etc., you should consult a person who is an expert. Be more attentive when entering, so you can reduce errors. Although there are still typesetting and proofreading in subsequent processes, if the input error rate is too high, it will definitely affect the publication quality of books and periodicals. For the entry of newspapers, due to their timeliness, they all require that records be completed in a very short period of time. In order to maintain a tight schedule and fast entry, they should always be sober-minded and ensure that the input error rate is in the thousands. Within the third, thus ensuring the publication quality of newspapers.
