to Multiformat Publishing

● How has MHP integrated print and digital in terms of the company's infrastructure?

Ruppel: [It] has been easier than I would have imagined. This is because we have been moving to a digital production platform for years. … Today, everything is handled in a digital environment, from manuscript delivery to online editing, page makeup and file delivery to the printer.

● In what area(s) will you be investing most heavily in 2011?
