"Denise has been an amazing addition to our team in the last year she has worked with us, and this is a natural step forward. She has proven she can tackle any project, of any size, across any brand, and make it more successful than anyone thought possible, which will be greatly important as we continue to expand and build new brands.

One of my favorite parts of my work is sitting down talking to
people who work in various roles in a print business, at their desks,
without their managers, in their comfort zone.<br />
When you go to where people are comfortable, confident, and you
listen more than you talk – you get a chance to really learn how the
company runs. It is very hard to find out how a print business runs if
you stay in conference rooms full of hierarchy.<br />
Like most businesses, most print businesses are running using
outdated tools, ideas, and processes. The management often has an idea
of “inefficiencies” that are resulting in “lower margins.” What I’m
interested in is how are the people in their various roles solving the
challenges that come at them every day. This is fascinating because many
of these people have been solving these challenges on their own for
years, sometimes decades.<br />
Management often does not know the details of the challenges or the
complexity of the solutions.

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">“Byfield’s thoughtful book on design using LibreOffice can help improve the quality of both online and print material you create with LibreOffice. “Designing with LibreOffice” solidifies his position as one of the world’s top writers about FOSS.” – Robin, “roblimo” Miller, Editor in Chief, Slashdot and Linux.com.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">“An outstanding contribution to help people bring the full power of LibreOffice into their documents. Bruce synthesises his deep experience of both LibreOffice, writing, and typography into a significant text to help users and designers use the software most effectively. The descriptions of the core document concepts will continue to be extremely valuable to users, even as the LibreOffice interface improves to make designing good documents Bruce’s way even easier.” – Michael Meeks, Director of The Document Foundation, creators of LibreOffice.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">“Bruce Byfield is a man who practices what he preaches. A fierce advocate of free and open source software (FOSS), Bruce has made it his mission to share his love and knowledge of free software in a way that helps his readers make the most of what FOSS can offer. Nowhere is this more obvious than in “Designing With LibreOffice”. The book is well laid out, easy to understand, and, as the title would suggest, very well designed. With this book in your hands, Bruce’s helpful, guiding voice, and plenty of easy to follow tables and images, you will learn to love and appreciate what LibreOffice can do for you. Learn from a master and you too, will master LibreOffice.” – Marcel Gagné, Writer of The Linux Journal‘s popular “Cooking with Linux” column</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">“LibreOffice is the publishing world’s best-kept secret. It is called an office suite, with word processor, spreadsheet, and slideshow modules, but it’s really an advanced desktop publishing system. It is used by commercial publishers to create source documents, and to convert from source documents created with other tools, such as LaTex, to the final print-ready format.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The secret to getting the most out of LibreOffice, the powerful open source office suite and desktop publisher, is understanding styles and templates. Author Bruce Byfield is our reliable guide to mastering its rich feature set and understanding how to design an efficient, powerful workflow. LibreOffice styles apply simple to complex formatting to documents, and allow rapid global changes. Templates store all the information for replicating a particular document design. When you work with styles and templates, your time is invested in writing your content rather than fighting with its appearance.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>“Designing With LibreOffice” teaches everything you need to know about document production: chapters, footnotes, citations, indexes, outlines, cross-references, incorporating images and spreadsheets, and controlling the appearance of your documents.</b> It is well-organized and contains abundant examples, and suitable for beginners to wizened old pros, who will probably discover things about LibreOffice that they didn’t know. – Carla Schroder, Author of The Linux Cookbook, The Linux Network Cookbook, and The Book of Audacity.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">” “What an incredibly thorough, useful book!” – Lee Schlesinger, Ex-editor at Linux.com, Managing Editor at Spicework.</span>Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09789019849049422158noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33275111.post-31055382376506849332016-07-28T08:13:00.001-04:002016-07-28T08:13:20.206-04:00PV Nano Cell’s nanometric silver conductive ink enables non-contact digital inkjet printing | PV-Tech<a href="http://www.pv-tech.org/products/pv-nano-cells-nanometric-silver-conductive-ink-enables-non-contact-digital#">PV Nano Cell’s nanometric silver conductive ink enables non-contact digital inkjet printing | PV-Tech</a>: Sicrys inks are highly adaptable, with 2D and 3D applications including metallization of solar photovoltaics as well as printed circuit boards, sensors, RFID, smart cards, antennas, advanced packaging, and touchscreens.<br />

Sicrys inks enables metallization of solar cells with inkjet printing. The silver loading is said to be higher than that of other inks on the market, and comes with exceptional conductivity and low viscosity, ideal for digital inkjet printing applications, while also offering the longest shelf life in the industry, according to the company.

<br />
Delaney-Gesing is a magazine journalism major. She is currently serving as the summer editor for Kent State’s student-run newspaper, The Kent Stater, and writes for the university’s student magazine, The Burr.<br />
<br />
Where did this notion that print is on the decline come from? The rise of the digital age? Newspapers and magazines’ formatting has now expanded to include Web and mobile. However, that doesn’t mean these mediums are replacing the original. In fact, a study conducted by Nielsen found that 51 percent of newspaper readership is exclusively in print.<br />
<br />
Today’s digital age consists of instantaneous news. The latest topics and events are now just fingertips away from the average reader. In response, the content of print has had to change. The hard, breaking news that used to grace the front pages and had readers grappling to get ahold of the daily newspaper is no longer possible.Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09789019849049422158noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33275111.post-81417698205672376082016-07-09T07:22:00.001-04:002016-07-09T07:35:01.098-04:00NOOK Press | Barnes & Noble<a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/nook-press/_/N-8r8">NOOK Press | Barnes & Noble</a><br /><br />

Press release from the issuing company<br />
<br />
Twin-Engine Landa W10P web press for magazines and journals produces over two million magazine pages per 8-hour shift <br />
<br />
Dusseldorf, Germany – Landa has announced the Landa W10P Nanographic Printing® Press for high quality publishing applications such as magazines, journals, catalogs and direct mail. The meter-wide (41 in.) two-sided web press has twin printing engines, each with 4-8 colors. <br />
<br />
The Landa W10P press prints on virtually any coated or uncoated paper stock, ranging in weight from 30 gsm to cardstock. Since Nanographic Printing creates zero strikethrough, the press produces magazine-quality printing even on the lightest - and cheapest - uncoated papers. Running at 200 meters/minute, it can print over two million magazine pages per 8-hour shift.<br />
<br />
“Fourteen years of nanotechnology research has enabled us to make tremendous breakthroughs in the quality, speed and cost of digital printing. The Landa W10P Nanographic Printing® Press is up to 24 times faster than any other commercial quality digital press and can print more than two million magazine pages in a single 8-hour shift,” says Landa Chairman, Benny Landa. “The Landa W10P is a technology platform that will help drive business growth and publisher profitability.” <br />
<br />
Nanography® will enable our customers to move their mainstream journal and magazine publishing, catalogs and direct mail pages from offset to digital, for a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) and improved margins. Magazine and journal publishers will leverage the technology’s benefits to offer more versatile products and attractive business models. The Landa W10P press will start shipping to customers in late 2017 and will not be shown at Drupa 2016.<br />
<br />
Throughout Drupa 2016, Landa will conduct live demonstrations of its sheetfed and webfed Nanographic Printing® Presses, including the Landa S10 for folding carton and POP, the Landa S10P perfecting press for commercial printing and the Landa W10 for flexible packaging. Landa will also be demonstrating its newest technology, Nano-Metallography®, a zero-waste metallization process that will halve the cost of metallized printing.Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09789019849049422158noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33275111.post-33870248210488981092016-06-02T19:57:00.001-04:002016-06-02T19:57:12.782-04:00IVAN HOFFMAN, B.A., J.D.
