ABSTRACT:
Specific printed products (2') of the printed products (2, 2') that are conveyed one behind another in a hanging position are rotated through 180.degree. about an axis of rotation that runs at right angles to the main surface (6) of these printed products (2'). Following the rotation, the rotated printed products (2") are gripped once more at their side edge (7) located at the top, which is opposite the side edge (4) at which the printed products (2') were held before the rotation. In this way, a product stream is obtained in which specific printed products (2") assume a spatial position different from that of the remaining printed products (2). For example, in this product stream the folded edge (4) of the nonrotated printed products (2) lies at the top, whereas the folded edges (4) of the rotated printed products (2") lie at the bottom. This results in advantages in the later further processing of the printed products (2, 2"), for example during stacking.
