BOOKS - Textbooks Lead the Way

Book printers that are stubborn when it comes to upgrading facilities and equipment run the risk of being left behind as the industry adjusts to the recent technological advances in printing. One of the most significant is digitization. According to the Printing Industries of America's recent Vision 21 Executive Summary, digitization will free book content material for repackaging and reuse. It will also enhance the availability of books, especially those less suitable for an extended print run. A significant market may develop for printing such titles.
