Von Hoffmann Corp. -- By the Book

Competing technologies such as the Internet have yet to make a discernable dent in the markets that Von Hoffmann serves. According to CFO Peter Mitchell, new paperless educational media such as the World Wide Web have thus far forged complementary relationships, rather than cannibalized, market growth. One area, however, where he says the Internet has shown signs of a replacement nature is at the college level, where Websites—that support a specific institution or curriculum—have had a slight impact on the volume of printed course offerings.
