Digital book printing is rising as one of the hotspots for growth in the printing manufacturing but expects to learn completely new skills to fulfill its promise, say trade experts.
This is a double-digit enlargement market, said Gilles Biscos, president of research firm Interfused, at the 2010 Toronto Digital Printing conference held at Ryerson University last week. His explore suggests digital book printing will grow by extra than 20% yearly through 2015.
Trends pouring this growth comprise the need for book publishers to reduce list and return costs for unsold books, improved digital printing and finishing knowledge, and the explosion in self-publishing through web-based services such as Lulu.com and Blurb. Biscos cited 169% expansion in the digit of self-published books in 2009.
Among the North American book printers his business surveyed, 64% said they would be investing in new digital tools in the next 18 months. It seems the chance is enormous: only 4.3% of books printed in North America are shaped on a digital press, with the balance produced by offset.
