With a century of existence, Folha de S.Paulo is the largest newspaper in Brazil and one of the largest in Latin America, with a daily circulation of 340,511 copies, including digital subscribers.

Admittedly an icon of quality and independent journalism in Brazilian media activity, the periodical is constantly attacked by governments (current and former) for its independent stance and its non-negotiable commitment to the rigorous investigation of the facts.

We printed our newspaper in the same place where the national currency is made.

The illustrations were made with pen and ink, digitized, and edited in color; the design was adjusted to achieve the verisimilitude required for the paper. The printing process went through different stages too

-choosing the best paper currency for the desired final format;

-printing in an offset;

-application of invisible ink in certain areas on silkscreen;

-application of holograms and gold ink specially developed for the numbers, which later still received a stage of high-gloss golden varnish;

-lastly, the micro-perforation of the serial numbers.

The stage of image processing and diagramming was done digitally on the Adobe platform. The original black and white illustrations underwent an adjustment of colors, aiming to harmonize the wefts of paper money, the basic filigree drawings, the fonts, and other information. Vector and image steps were also used.
