Louisiana Daily Newspaper Makes the Move to CTP With Agfa

RIDGEFIELD PARK, NJ—August 17, 2006—Agfa Graphics announced today that The Town Talk, a Gannett-owned daily newspaper in Alexandria, LA, has purchased two of Agfa’s violet Advantage platesetters, one for the newspaper and the other for its commercial operation at a separate facility.

“We’ve been studying the CTP market for three years now. Our sister facility in Lafayette, LA, purchased two Advantage DLs two years ago, so we decided to go down there to take a look,” said Dorothy Sasser, production director for The Town Talk. “Once we saw it in action, we were convinced. The competition in this business is fierce, so we need to provide a level of quality that gives us an edge. We’re counting on the Advantage to deliver for us.”
