In the printing method known as indirect gravure, the engraved roller appears with the engraving of the desired image. The pad printing roller must in this case transfer the pattem in its entirety to the print object. In the printing method known as flexography, the engraved roller appears with a uniform engraving. This system allows the whole cylinder to ink, after which a pad printing cylinder formed specifically in the shape of the pattem only translates the desired pattern to the print object.
