Since February 2003, Semper International has provided a quarterly survey offering estimates of trends in the printing and graphics industries.

Survey participants include more than 300 small, medium and large printing companies; both clients and prospects of Semper International.

Sales are back on track now and we expect a solid quarter - as we saw after Fed's second round of quantitative easing, conducted to stimulate the national economy."
