Why Use Sustainable Typesetting®?
Publishers are dealing with pressure on their profit margins due to cost increases for paper, printing, shipping and warehousing. At the same time, legislative measures including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and California regulations, such as Scope 3 are being introduced to improve sustainability.
Sustainable Typesetting® is an ideal solution for books or reports that are 400 pages or longer and will be produced in print runs of at least 400 copies. It helps publishers address cost issues and regulations while also providing consumers with print publications that deliver the increased readability they are demanding.
Sustainable Typesetting® is a proven method for:
Reducing book page count and carbon footprint by up to 20% through the publication lifecycle
Improving readability of standard size or large-print content
