January up, yes, but compare to a very very bad 2008.
I am a printer. I can see and feel the back logs expand. Lots of talk from my paper salesman about paper prices going up. I wish I could say my back logs are also expanding.
Question to other printers - what are your back logs doing? If paper dates advancing, one has to assume our printing dates are also expanding??????? Comments
