In the Luminous-Landscape interview, do you know the Japanese printer that
was used to print Mr. Atkinson's book was all that cheaper than its US
counterpart?
Hi Roger,
Bill worked with Vanfu of Japan. They asked Bill to come to Japan and
teach them how to use a color management workflow. In exchange, they
printed his book at no cost. Bill flew to Japan six times to fully
characterize their presses and print the book. It is clear that Vanfu
valued Bill's expert advice. I think they ended up getting the most
value out of the deal. They are now using his methods for all of their
printing. They report that they are printing a higher quality product
at lower cost.
Vanfu was willing to make an inverstment in new methods and they are now
enjoying the return on that investment.
