Usually those bumps and lumps occurred on large areas of ink coverage. While it is near impossible to attain perfect smoothness in those situations, an experienced thermography pressman can at least deliver a consistent appearance across a large area of ink. The process actually uses heat to "bake" the ink and it rises from the surface of the stock. The toast never came out very tasty, but I found the process of printing business cards and stationary quite fascinating.

In response to Richard, we considered companies such as BCE to be competition, but we used our superior quality (not always necessarily price) as a selling point to our clients. My company that I worked for has since gone under, so that should tell you who won the quality vs. price battle in thermography.
