Industry Leader to Showcase Latest Applications for Print, Postpress,
                          Mailing and Fulfillment

    DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- BOWE BELL + HOWELL (BBH), a
leading provider of high-performance document management solutions and
services, will unveil its latest innovations at this year's Graph Expo, the
most comprehensive graphic communications conference in the Americas. The
event, to be held Oct. 26 to Oct. 29 at Chicago's McCormick Place, will
showcase the newest technologies and expertise from BBH and hundreds of
other world-class vendors. BBH will be located in booth 1253, adjacent to
the Mailing and Fulfillment Center.

    "Graph Expo provides an ideal venue to demonstrate a wide variety of
solutions for print and production mailers of all sizes," said John
Lombard, president, BBH Field Operations. "At this year's conference, we
have a solid array of new products and services that address the industry's
increasing demand for print quality, data integrity and flexibility, and
higher throughput and efficiency."

    Product highlights will include the launch of a revolutionary inserting
system and the new JETVision(TM) system for print inspection. JETVision
technology will also be used in a unique application that demonstrates its
powerful new color verification capabilities. The JETVision system will be
playing Guitar Hero(R) by interpreting and analyzing the color on the video
game screen, and using that information to activate the guitar controls.

    In addition to hardware and software demonstrations in the booth, BBH
Services personnel will be available to discuss the expansion of its
programs, which include multi-vendor solutions (OEM services), training and
development through BBH University and customer productivity solutions,
among others.

    New product announcements at the show:

    Revolutionary inserting system yields changeover from letters to flats
in minutes, not hours

    Designed to process applications for virtually any mailing operation,
this new inserter features a design and operator process that dramatically
reduces changeover time and includes self-locking synchronized guide
adjustments, an inserting station elevator and uniform hinge-line
registration.

    Print inspection

    BBH will announce a new offering for inspecting the quality and
integrity of print in one- or two-up, simplex or duplex, grayscale or color
print at full production speeds of today's printers.



    Other products featured at the BBH booth include:

    Inserting systems

feeder with no-touch set-up; a redesigned, more intuitive operating system;
and VEKtor(TM) scanning technology for full document imaging and IMB
content verification.

    Enduro(R)

    Processing up to 11,000 envelopes per hour, the inserting system will

transpromotional output, will accept 11" x 17" cut-sheet input, perform

Enduro inserting systems, and reading the live IMB to sort mailpieces in
sequential bin order.

    Vision and Reading Solutions

integrity and quality control for #10, 6" x 9" and flat envelopes for

themselves, will demonstrate many of its monitoring and tracking solutions
such as color verification, sequence tracking and matching. In a second
area, a JETVision Express system will be configured to play the popular
video game Guitar Hero to demonstrate the endless possibilities for
applying vision technology-from tracking mail, monitoring quality,
verifying data integrity, to nearly any vision application, in any
industry.

    VEKtor(TM)

    The VEKtor reading system will showcase the benefits of vision
technology, including quick job setup and the ability to handle multiple
applications using multiple barcodes. VEKtor is completely integrated with

control.
