Abstract

A flexible wrap-on printing plate structure has a flexible printing plate body extending between opposite first and second edges at which the printing plate structure is attached to a rotary printing form cylinder. A thickening of the printing plate body or other means extend along a third edge of the printing plate body between the mentioned first and second edges for mechanically stiffening the printing plate body along that third edge, so that no warping of the printing plate structure and no printout of printing plate margins can occur.
