The real challenge of using digital imaging technology on printed textiles

Abstract

In earlier times, clothing was a basic necessity which later evolved into fashion. At present, industrialization has altered the economy and enhanced urbanization. Urbanization in turn promoted luxurious living and high tech lifestyle. This led to high demands in textile not only to increase production in the fashion and textile industry but also to produce complex and more artistic surface pattern designs which in the past seemed difficult or next to impossible.
