Where I buy my plates: www.photopolymerplates.com/ Kim Becker - owner, very nice. You can tell her Mirka sent you. She is very helpful over the phone and has very affordable rates. Only minus is that there is a minimum 8 plates per order. 8.25 x 11.5” plates come out to be about $9-10 with shipping.
I also buy relief plates for my letterpress from www.boxcarpress.com, they also have a service where they will make a plate for you. All you have to do is send your digital image in.
