As a result, the production cycle of the album is longer and more communication and coordination is required.

Posters are usually made of lighter paper and simpler printing processes, such as monochrome printing or partial UV. Albums are usually thicker paper and more complex printing processes, such as UV, bronzing, die-cutting and so on. These techniques can increase the texture and beauty of the album and enhance its market competitiveness.
