GCR is an abbreviation for Gray Component Replacement. The black 'K' is used in colours which are further from the neutral axis. There are some benefits to using GCR colour split separations, making them the most popular for non-newsprint work.
Undercolor removal (UCR) and gray component replacement (GCR) are color reproduction considerations for converting images from RGB to CMYK for the printing press.
Shipments is most likely an older term which originally referred to products retrieved from a large cargo ship. Take a container of goods that will be transported by some means. From the frame of reference of the ship, truck, or plane, and the people handling the container while in transit, that container is cargo.
In short, the term cargo is traditionally used to refer to commercial goods shipped by sea or plane, and mail of course, is always cargo. Freight on the other hand, is cargo moved overland in trucks or trains. Plus it has the direct connection to the financial aspects of the transportation of goods.
Five types of cargo can be distinguished: container cargo, liquid bulk, dry bulk, breakbulk and ro-ro.
The first records of the word cargo come from the 1600s. It comes from the Spanish cargo, meaning “load,” from the Spanish verb cargar, meaning “to load.” It ultimately comes from the Late Latin verb carricāre, meaning “to load a vehicle.”
Ships carry cargo because their content is intended to be offloaded onto cars (sometimes trucks) once the ship arrives at a port. Cars carry shipments because those shipments are intended to be transferred to ships, once the car gets to the port.
