Questions Bank Section 1 – True or False? True False 1. Many prominent innovations in the packaging industry were developed first for military use. 2. The only measure of success for packaging design lies in its ability to effectively communicate with the target audience. 3. The packaging material makes it easier to decide which types of printing for packaging are better for each level. 4. Tertiary Packaging groups large quantities of products for better protection when transporting, such as from the production warehouse to the point of sale. 5. Secondary packaging is the packaging that buyers typically see first when the products are displayed on store shelves. 6. Necessary product and brand elements often appear on the primary packaging. 7. Understanding the purpose of every level of packaging can make your designs stand out from the competition. 8. Papermaking can be traced to about AD 105 in India. 9. Paperboard is a versatile and durable type of paper-based packaging material made by compressing layers of paper pulp fibers to create a dense and rigid board. 10. Paperboard comes in one grades, thicknesses, and finishes. 11. All type of paper grade offers same advantages regarding strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. 12. Paperboard is eco-friendly and recyclable, making it ideal for sustainable packaging solutions. 13. CCNB is commonly used for low-cost folding carton packaging for products such as laundry detergent. 1  True False 14. CCNB is commonly used for food items. 15. CCNB suitable for products requiring higher moisture resistance or weight capacity. 16. CCNB is also eco-friendly for businesses looking to reduce their environmental impact. 17. SBS is the best for product packaging thanks to its superior strength, durability, and white both both surfaces. 18. The major advantage of SBS is that it is an eco-friendly option. 19. SBS is unsuitable for packaging products exposed to moisture or wet conditions, as it has poor water resistance. 20. FBB is a high-quality paperboard grade mechanically manufactured using multi-ply paper pulp materials. 21. FBB is commonly used for folding carton packaging for non-food products. 22. SUS is the paperboard grades are manufactured from recyclable materials, such as unbleached wood pulp. 23. SUS becoming increasingly popular in the packaging even though it is non eco-friendly paperboard grades. 24. Kraft paper is the most sustainable option out of all the types of paper available. 25. Test paper liners are less expensive than Kraft because they use more recycled fiber content. 26. F-Flute is the very good at handling compression and stacking and is often used for packaging fragile items. 27. B-Flute appears much thinner than others but is still quite strong, with excellent puncture and crush resistance. 28. E-Flute is most versatile flute grades. It has average crush resistance, stacking strength, and printing properties. 29. A-Flute has a smoother surface for high-quality printing. It is common to use in fast-food clamshell packaging. 30. Liner Board is the ‘face’ of the fiberboard sheet. You glue the flute onto this board. 2  True False 31. Single Face is consists of one liner board with glued flute visible on one side. 32. Single Wall is the most common thickness. one liner boards with fluted fiberboard glued. 33. Double Wall is two sheets of liner board and two fluted fiberboards in between. 34. Triple Wall is the four sheets of liner board and three fluted fiberboards in between. This option can withstand heavier weights up to almost 135 Kg but is less flexible. 35. Auto-lock bottom: The bottom flaps of the box are designed to lock itself in place, providing a secure platform for lighter objects. 36. Snap lock boxes have a three-step locking mechanism with flaps to hold heavy objects securely. 37. Dielines not include: Packaging size, scale and dimensions. 38. Dielines not include: Manufacturing notes. 39. Dielines include: Placement of creases, cutlines, tabs, folds, and other connection points. 40. Before creating packaging dielines, you must consider size, weight, and the purpose of your packaging. 41. Looking at dielines, you’re able to envision how and where your artwork will be displayed. 42. Crease lines are probably the most crucial part of your dieline. They communicate where to cut your dieline to construct your final packaging. 43. Bleed lines indicate where your packaging will be folded to construct your box. they leave no room for confusion in the construction of packaging and ensure accurate results. 44. Bleed lines are separating excess space from the space that will ultimately feature your artwork design. 45. The glue zone indicates to the printer which areas are guaranteed to be seen on your custom-printed boxes. help printers align, ensure printed artwork is placed correctly on the finished project, and account. 3  True False 46. CMYK and RGB colors appear differently in print applications. 47. RGB is the most common colour model as it used in electronic devices like computers, TV screens, and smartphones. 48. In additive colour models such as RGB, Black is the “additive” combination of all primary coloured lights. 49. The coloured pixels in displays overlap on the screen, but when viewed from a sufficient distance. 50. Photo editing software programs like Adobe Photoshop use the RGB model by default as it offers the widest range of colours. 51. Additive color is the term used to describe CMYK color 52. The colored pixels in displays do not overlap on the screen, but when viewed from a sufficient distance, the light from the pixels diffuses to overlap on the retina. 53. CMYK is a Additive process meaning that all colors start as blank – the white of an unprinted page. 54. The colors we see on a printed use percentages of transparent and overlapping dots in the RGB process. 55. In spot color printing each color is individual and mixed separately before it used. 56. There is no relation between prepress stage and quality control. 57. Prepress identifies and corrects any potential issues before printing, ensuring the final packaging meets the brand’s quality expectations. 58. Dot gain and tonal jumps can be a problem in the shadow areas, because the white space at the center of four adjoining circles can easily become filled with additional ink as the dots grow and begin touching. 59. When different screens are combined, a number of distracting visual effects can occur like Dot gain. 4  True False 60. By varying the density of the four secondary printing colors, (CMYK), any particular shade can be reproduced. 61. Moiré pattern problem can be reduced by rotating the screens in relation to each other. 62. The lower the pixel resolution of a source file, the greater the detail that can be reproduced. 63. CTF are produced in less time, are more consistent, and at a lower cost 64. Becouse FM Screening dots are randomly placed, this eliminates the screen angle problem, therefore eliminating the moirés and rosettes patterns. 65. in CTF each color is made into same piece of film and plate. 66. The coating on printing plates is blue, but this has bearing on the color of ink the plate will apply. 67. When preparing files for color separation, it’s essential to consider the quality of the original image, the colors used, and the intended print medium. 68. Color separation is used in only offset lithography. 69. Color separation works by breaking down an image into its constituent colors. Each color is then printed separately, one layer at a time, to create a final image. 70. Step and repeat reduces production costs by allowing several elements to be printed in a single print run.
