Webcrafters Adds Second Digital Book Production Line

MADISON, WI—For more than a hundred years, Webcrafters has been a familiar name to book publishers, particularly in the educational and custom publishing markets—segments that were some of the first to embrace short-run production in order to reduce inventories and better manage supply chains.

Webcrafters entered the digital print space in 2005 as a way to efficiently produce “end-of-life” titles, those textbooks which would soon be out of print but had a handful of school adoptions that needed to be fulfilled. What’s more, Webcrafters soon discovered that a textbook’s “teacher’s edition” could also benefit significantly from digital’s unmatched capabilities to process state-specific, customized content.
