Yearbook Printer Expands

LOVES PARK, IL—Yearbook producer Lifetouch Publishing has acquired an eight-color, 40˝ Heidelberg Speedmaster 102 press. In the last two years, the company has added four Esko-Graphics computer-to-plate (CTP) devices, five new Heidelberg offset presses (two two-color SM 102s, a four-color 102, a five-color SM 74 and a five-color CD 102) and new bindery equipment from Muller Martini and Horhauf. The new machines come on the heels of a $12 million expansion initiative in 2003.
