DOCUMENT & COMMERCIAL PRINTING THE BOOK PRODUCTION SUITE Today’s consumers are spoiled with technology. Information is available everywhere, at any time, in any way. Digital capturing and viewing have changed the way people get to information. Information is much more visual and interactive than just plain text. This trend is changing the world of book manufacturing dramatically. Volumes per title drop but the number of titles increases. This asks for flexible production solutions: for book content production as well as for book cover production. The Book Production suite offers end-to-end solutions for book content production (book blocks) as well as the manufacturing of book covers and dust jackets. Transforming a white roll of paper, into a finished bookcover, ready to be applied !
