PMA sessions at Graph Expo will cover topics such as “Trends in Print Buying,” “Top 20 Pressroom Problems,” “The State of Our Industry,” “Three Reasons You Must Optimize Your Workflow,” “Why You Need an MIS System,” and “Finishing for Profitability,” among others. All PMA seminars will be located in the Heidelberg booth #1200, which will demonstrate Heidelberg’s theme of “HEI Performance and HEI Value” by featuring a range of prepress, commercial print, packaging, postpress, service, and workflow solutions.
Seminars will be held five times per day on a first-come, first-serve basis Sunday through Tuesday, October 26—28. A full schedule of PMA speakers and topics is located online at www.us.heidelberg.com
