“Von Hoffman just extends [Donnnelly] down in run length into shorter run lengths, which will encroach on any of the smaller printers,” DeWese says. “The move by Donnelley to buy something as big as Von Hoffman will really put more pressure on. You may see consolidation among lesser companies or you may see the companies’ profits begin to decline. What’s happening in a lot of the printing segments is almost a natural evolution. It’s Darwinian—the strong get stronger, and the weak disappear and die. It’s an inevitable force, almost immutable, that is leading to these specialized acquisitions. A handful of very large companies will control printing.”
