Book Printing Outlook: Addressing Evolving Needs

"Quad/Graphics has seen an ongoing trend across all product segments toward shorter initial run lengths and more reprints," states Jeff Duening, vice president and general manager, books and directories. "There has been a slowing of e-book growth, but on a larger base. At the same time, publishers have sought out ways to enhance the quality of their printed products with better papers, more distinctive covers and high-definition printing."
