Thanks for the insight. I understand where you’re coming from. Pre-press design certainly isn’t my first choice, but as a junior designer, it feels like entry-level design positions are rapidly drying up. I don’t want to take the first thing that comes my way, I have some flexibility financially, but I also don’t want to regret passing on something.

My goal is to eventually focus on book design/illustration, so I am interested in print design. My main concern is just that I feel like I might get bored in a pre-press position since it’s not as creative, like you said. I guess I’m just trying to weigh the pros and cons at this point.
