PI 400 -- The Who's Who in Printing for 2003

Despite our repeated attempts, various privately held companies refused to divulge their annual printing sales figures. Consequently, they were not included. And some that did participate refused or could not break down their annual sales by the various print market specialties that we track.

Also, individual printing companies that are part of larger graphic arts networks—such as Quebecor World, Consolidated Graphics, Moore Wallace and Mail-Well—are not listed separately. In essence, to do so would be to show sales figures twice. Instead, only the revenues of the entire umbrella corporation are included. In the case of a holding company that owns a graphic arts firm, the printing operation is listed in our rankings with the holding company's name appearing beneath it.
