Yes, I worked on printmaking as a minor for my MFA, using almost
exclusively polymer plates. The process I saw first was developed by
Strange Ross of Sweden. He is using Photoshop now and his work is pretty
amazing. go to: http://axp.psl.ku.dk/~ross/index.html

Also, there is another book on the subject _Polymer Gravure: A New
Method for Photographer and Graphic Artists_.
