At Berryville Graphics, a Milestone in Book Printing

As one of the first book manufacturers to go computer-to-plate, Berryville has faced some unique challenges. For example, since the CTP process eliminated film from the workflow (and, therefore eliminated bluelines), Berryville developed an alternative customer proofing system.

Berryville worked with Krause (manufacturer of the LaserStar CTP system that Berryville uses to manufacture its books) and Xerox (makers of the DocuTech digital printing system) to create a software program, wherein the LaserStar files could be output on the DocuTech to produce "bound galleys on-demand."
