CTP--The Digital DRUPA

New enhancements to existing devices from BARCO Graphics to Printware, coupled with new plate recorders entering the market from Agfa, Krause and Cymbolic Sciences this year, just to name a few, will without reservation set the stage for a new platesetting market.

DRUPA 1995 may have been a turning point for the industry; Certainly much of the technology announced at that event became the butt of a few jokes—there were more CTP systems on display than there were actual installations worldwide.
