Where Content Is King
Today’s publishers understand that content is king. Their job is to deliver that content in the form that the market demands. Though much of the business has moved to digital delivery, not everyone enjoys the e-reading experience, and others lack the tech-savvy mindset or budget to acquire mobile devices. So print continues to play an important role because of its permanence, ease of use, and familiarity. Books remain an important channel for content delivery.
Lightweight Papers: A Digital Printing Breakthrough
Documents and publications like Bibles, directories, prospectus documents and even pharmaceutical inserts have traditionally been printed on paper that is so thin you can practically see through them. Printing these documents required offset presses only because digital presses couldn’t run ultra thin papers... until now. Revolutionary technology in both web and sheetfed digital presses have changed that world forever.

Digital print technologies are changing the way marketers across the globe are selling products and services. To keep up with these advances, traditional printers are now investing in digital tactics to achieve greater results for their clients and to secure a healthy bottom line for themselves. Wondering how savvy printers are making this transition and making money doing it?

Finishing and binding have implications for a book’s usage, purpose, and longevity. In the past, print service providers often outsourced their bindery work.

As an example, the Océ BLM550 is an inline booklet maker that combines the four processes of saddle stitching, folding, spine forming, and trimming in a single machine.
