E-readers & Tablets: Defeating the Digital Myth

The Ovid Bell Press, a short-run publication and catalog printer based in Fulton, MO, produces about 400 different publications of varying frequency. According to John Bell, CEO, the company did witness a reduction in print volume during 2011, but the impact has been “less than dramatic.”

One of the avenues Ovid Bell Press is using to supplement income is via its OMag digital edition offering. For just $3 per page, publishers can feature video, audio, flash animation and links, with three years of hosting (no minimum page counts). In February, Ovid Bell Press digitized more than 3,700 customer pages.
