Abstract: The master’s thesis is devoted to the development of an informational brochure design and the investigation of the influence of paper substrate properties on the quality characteristics of digital print impressions. The relevance of this research is determined by the growing role of digital technologies in printing production and the need to ensure the consistent quality of advertising and informational printed materials. The first chapter presents a systematic literature review of the current state of the printing industry. It includes a classification of printed products with a detailed analysis of informational brochures as a specific type of publication. Theoretical foundations of image formation in digital printing are examined, along with the properties of paper substrates that determine the quality of printed products, as well as methods for evaluating print quality and studying the performance characteristics of digital print impressions. The second chapter substantiates the selection of research objects and methods. The process of designing the informational brochure is described in detail. The third chapter presents the results of experimental studies on the reproduction and graphic characteristics of impressions obtained on different types of paper, as well as their performance properties, demonstrating a correlation between paper type and quality indicators. Keywords: digital printing, informational booklet, quality of impressions, optical density, colour reproduction, paper. The master’s thesis consists of an introduction, three chapters, and general conclusions. The total volume of the thesis is 75 pages and includes 7 tables and 16 figures. The list of references contains 39 sources. Two abstracts of student conference papers based on the thesis results have been published (see Appendix).
