Bitstream to Acquire Assets of Press-sense

“In the past few years we have seen a dramatic increase in the demand for automated processes in the document production space. Increased commoditization and competition in the printing industry, as well as increasing pressure on corporate marketers to demonstrate positive returns on investment for all expenditures, are driving the desire to reduce or eliminate human touches from the production of documents and to generate sufficient and accurate data to measure the costs and benefits of each step of the process,” explains Anna Magliocco-Chagnon, Bitstream President and CEO. “Our Pageflex product line leads the industry in tackling the front-end of the process: order taking and document production. Press-sense provides the most extensive business management tools for the back-end of the process enabling companies to monitor and reduce their operating costs. Through this asset acquisition, Bitstream becomes the only entity able to offer the full complement of solutions required by document producers.”
