Hear Steve Johnson discuss...

New Markets for Color Books at Graph Expo

   If you’re looking for a new niche market that offers “Picture-Perfect Profits” plan to attend Copresco president Steve Johnson’s seminar at Graph Expo.
   Steve headlines the Wednesday, September 12 educational schedule with an 8:15 to 10 a.m. presentation on photo
books.
   “This skyrocketing market for printers, artists, photographers and photo service firms is expected to grow to more than $1 billion by 2010,” says industry expert Frank Romano.

Memory Books Lead the Way

   Steve will discuss the growing popularity of “memory books” as well as the converging roles of digital and offset printing and the web.
   Seminar participants will hear about digital photo imaging and digital color printing and finishing trends.

The Industry’s Biggest

   Graph Expo is the graphic arts industry’s most comprehensive trade show and conference in the Americas.
   The big show runs from Sunday, September 9 to September 12 and will be held at McCormick Place South.

Stop in and See Us

   While you’re in Chicago, plan to stop by Copresco for a tour of our impressive digital printing plant, a cup of coffee or lunch.
   Just call or send us an e-mail note.


Oops, They Goofed

   A large, well-known printer was somewhat red-faced last month when hundreds of Harry Potter fans found pages missing from their cherished Deathly Hallows copies.
   Reports ranged from a few missing pages in the U.S. to two full chapters in Australia and New Zealand.
   Several copies of the misprinted books have already turned up on online auctions as collectors’ items.

The Right Way

   Maybe the publisher should have called Copresco first, for a fast, short run of the new book. We would have made sure that all the pages were included—and in the right order.

Thank Goodness

   Fortunately, this wasn’t a life threatening goof.
   But, imagine what could happen if you were dealing with a nuclear power station handbook or an aircraft-maintenance manual. Missing or misplaced pages would be a disaster.
   So, you know who to call when you need books and manuals done right on time without a mishap.
   Call the digital on-demand printing leader. Call Copresco.


Pottermania Continued

   While on an Alaskan vacation, one of our customers ran into Pottermania head on. He took the photo of the youngster shown at left on a catamaran sailing from Valdez to Whittier.
   Deeply engrossed in a Harry Potter novel, she was completely oblivious to the gorgeous scenery passing by. In fact, she barely looked out of the window during the whole 2 1/4-hour passage.

Harry Reader
Enthusiastic young Harry Potter readers like this one have
dispelled the notion that children don’t read books anymore.

Special Delivery

   A fellow traveler in the group couldn’t wait to get home for Deathly Hallows long-awaited debut. She had the book shipped by FedEx to Whittier before embarking on her Alaskan Inside Passage cruise.
   All of this confirms what we said in the July issue of Overnight Lite—that the printed word is alive and doing very well.


Labor Day

   Copresco will be closed Monday, September 3 for Labor Day.
   Enjoy the last weekend of summer with your family and friends.
