Freedonia Group Releases new study on USA Commercial Printers

Study Highlights:
-Revenues for the US commercial printing industry, which includes pre-press and printing services on a job order basis, are expected to increase 1.3 percent per year to $82 billion in 2011.

-Growth in commercial printing revenues will be driven by ongoing technological changes that make it easier to create higher quality and more customized prints at a faster rate. Gains will also be aided by ongoing adjustments in print production in response to changing consumer preferences, particularly in terms of cost, timing and sizes of print runs.

-Digital printing is projected to achieve the strongest gains through 2011 because of the process' lower cost, quick turnaround and ease of customization for short printing runs.
