Explanation:

Paste up refers to a method of creating, or laying out, publication pages that predates the use of the now-standard computerized page design desktop publishing programs. Completed, or camera-ready, pages are known as mechanicals or mechanical art. In the offset lithography process, the mechanicals would be photographed with a stat camera to create a same-size film negative for each printing plate required.

Noun 1. paste-up - a composition of flat objects pasted on a board or other backing; "they showed him a paste-up of the book jacket"
collage, montage - a paste-up made by sticking together pieces of paper or photographs to form an artistic image; "he used his computer to make a collage of pictures superimposed on a map"
composition - something that is created by arranging several things to form a unified whole; "he envied the composition of their faculty"
