Abstract
In this paper a method for manual processing of process free printing plates is defined which ensures reproducible results. This decoating procedure can help print service providers with certain quality checks (like linearization) that are otherwise more expensive or even not feasible altogether for such plates. This method holds for quality assurance only and is not suitable for the actual production.
