PFFC Magazine - Phoenix Rising

Posted by David Roisum on January 27, 2012

It’s said that bad news travels fast. Conversely, I’m hoping the great news that PFFC is back will travel at lightning speed. Many learned of the decision In late August 2011 that Penton Media had decided  to cease publication of Paper, Film & Foil Converter (PFFC).

The great news is that the new corporation I and my partners Tim Janes and Claudia Hine have formed, YTC Media Inc., has acquired the assets of PFFC, and now all of the archived content continues to be accessible along with all the targeted new posted content that PFFC website visitors and E-Clips e-newsletter subscribers have been accustomed to receiving. PFFC is riding the crest of the wave that publishing is following as a completely electronic product, available on demand, 24/7.

We're asking Industry suppliers and converters to add my and my colleagues new e-mail addresses to their media contact list so PFFC's website visitors and e-newsletter subscribers can hear and read about their news, triumphs, and announcements. It feels good to be back in the thick of things, collaborating with our former contributors whom our readers truly value for their technological expertise, including Tim Walker, Kelly Robinson, Mark Miler, Tom Bezigian, and now Stephanie Millman. Everyone is invited to offer suggestions on how to make www.PFFC-online.com more robust and interactive and to accept my open invitation for a free subscription to E-Clips at http://bit.ly/uxLKe7.

Absolutely wonderful !!  As a longtime subscriber to PFFC I have already signed up. - DR Roisum
