Task · part of 4. Print your design. Do ONE process

4(d). Relief printing: 50 copies

Optional May not apply

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 4: which printing process?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

The Hub currently gives this the same wording as 4(c): create a layout in electronic form, download it to the press or printer, and run 50 copies, or print and scan a paper copy of the layout if no electronic interface is available.

Warning. On the Hub, the wording of 4(d), relief printing, repeats 4(c), electronic/digital printing, word for word: "Create a layout in electronic form, download it to the press or printer, and run 50 copies. If no electronic interface to the press or printer is available, you may print and scan a paper copy of the layout." Ask your counselor what they expect for relief printing.

Where this step comes from

  1. Graphic Arts Merit Badge Requirements (Merit Badge Hub, last modified 2025-12-31), Requirement 4(d) · On the Hub its wording repeats 4(c) word for word.
