Press-Finishing Print output is the cornerstone of myPRINT—the launch pad of cutting-edge innovations in digital and offset print technologies for the world! It’s all here and one of the main attractions for graphic communications buyers who will come to see, touch, test, and compare the diverse equipment and products in the postpress/finishing area. “Dressing up” printed pieces increases response and ultimately adds revenues for your customers’ customers. That makes this the place to introduce new ways to bind, fold, cut, emboss, foil stamp, coat, and more. PackPrint^SM Show your flexible packaging, converting, folding/gluing, die-cutting, and tag/label production equipment, substrates, and supplies to an audience ready to buy: up to 60% of PRINT 09’s tag and label manufacturers, folding carton producers, and flexible packaging producers are in the market for new presses. And a majority of those not currently in this part of the business are interested in adding these services. Also, progressive RFID and printed electronics exhibitors will debut at PRINT 09. Prepress/Design-Software Design, document creation, and prepress software are proven high priorities for attendees, as are prepress equipment and supplies. If you’re a manufacturer or vendor in this arena, here’s your chance to prove to thousands of graphic communications and creative professionals—hands on—why your products offer the most cost-efficient solutions in design, estimating, web-to-print, and variable data processes.	Mailing & Fulfillment Center Mail management, kit fulfillment, and logistics are some of the non-print services that show the greatest growth potential. Close to 70,000 square feet of technology, equipment, and supplies will attract buyers specializing in mailing and fulfillment—as well as those looking to add these services to expand their existing offerings. Wide Format Pavilion 20,000 square feet will be dedicated to the digital output equipment, substrates, inks, toners, cutters, and routers for wide format specialists, as well as sign shops, in-plant printers and smaller operators, who are finding wide format to be more and more profitable—so much so that this market is set to reach $46.5 billion in 2011. Promotional Products Village Promotional products generate an annual $18.6 billion in sales. More and more printers who are eager to take part in this high-profit, low-overhead market are expanding their services by offering these products. Suppliers in every promotional product category and range of price points will find exhibiting here a smart move.
