New Brake Rotor install help!

When changing brake rotors I have been told the rotor and the hub need separating.
Is this difficult and what may be the issues?
Thanks!

If you use the punchout method, try using a heavy brass hammer so you don't get a chip flying off into your eye. Using a steel hammer, that can happen. It's also a good idea to wear eye protection using either hammer.

That depends on whether the rotor/hub are one piece or two.........
