Drupa--Prepress Synergy

What Drupa 2000 did not do for prepress operations, believe it or not, was signal the end of film; platesetters and imagesetters were both in abundance. Nor did the Düsseldorf millennium event forecast the demise of proven high production scanning technologies for the total adoption of the digital camera. In fact, even with the abundance of direct imaging offset presses at Drupa, platesetters still proliferated. In short, the old and the new were existing in harmony.
