* What is SNAP?

SNAP is a guide published by the Newspaper Association of America. It is designed to create a standard in newsprint production quality. These guidelines cover a wide range of industry standards from the creation of the ad to the final output of the product. SNAP is used to maintain consistency in all areas of the newsprint business starting from the designer and continuing throughout the entire production process. It ensures that the original ideas of the designer are maintained in the final product. These specifications pertain to proofing and coldset printing of newspapers, pre-printed advertising inserts and other printed materials in the newspaper industry. SNAP is an effective communication tool for designers, photographers, pre-press and press operators and more.
