ABSTRACT:
A printing system for customizing folded signatures in a collating and binding line having a number of spaced signature feeders includes an auxiliary feeder for conveying signatures in a particular orientation to a primary feeder located in the line, and a printer positioned between the auxiliary and primary feeders for printing signatures before their delivery to the line such that the printing on the signatures lies substantially transverse to the folds of the signatures. The system further includes an arrangement for aligning the signatures in a particular orientation between the auxiliary feeder and primary feeder.
