Full-format screened data is processed in a computer-implemented method
to identify zones that contain printable information. The zones are packed, imaged
and made into flexo plates, and elements cut out from the plates for each zone
of printable information. The plates use less flexo material than the full-format
screened data. The cut elements are accurately placed on a flexo plate carrier
to form a set of plates on a carrier for printing the full format screened data.
