Andreas Tietz Editor Der Druckspiegel / PrintMirror |
Dear reader,
about half a year ago, "Printmirror" (Druckspiegel) started adding daily printing news on our English website, and at drupa we published our first printed issue in English. We continue our globalisation efforts with an English version of our newsletter for the printing industry. Like our loyal readers in Germany who have benefited from for several years, now our international audience can also stay informed from the editors of one of Germany's leading printing magazines. Read about what is going on in the industry and, stay on track with trends and developments. If you would prefer to receive both of our newsletters (weekly German and bi-weekly English) or just one of them, please send us an email at info@druckspiegel.de or via the sign up form. If you unsubscribe you will not receive any more emails from us. Thank you for your interest and please take a look at our other magazines for the paper and graphic industry (respectively), ipwonline.de and paperazzo.de. Or visit us at Ecoprint in Berlin on Sept. 26 and 27! Sincerely,
