Abstract :
With video display terminals for text entry and an illustration scanner for converting photos to digital halftones, the US News and World Report publishing system produces completely made up pages of text and art and transmits them via satellite or telephone lines from the editorial office to three printing plants. Deadlines have been extended two days, copy can be modified up to the last minute, and consumption of paper has been greatly reduced.
