Print Buyers International (PBI) realized they’d come to a defining moment last month … and launched a new online Print Buyer Glossary. The framework has already been established with several hundred words and phrases that are listed alphabetically.

In addition, PBI is in the process of building a subglossary to specifically target the industry's green printing and sustainability movement.

"Within days of my announcing the new glossary to my Print Tips subscribers, I received about two dozen new terms," said PBI Founder Margie Dana. "Stan Rosen of HP sent me a batch that included skinnies, fatties and Quick Sucker Uppers (QSU). I'm getting a whole new education myself!"

Print buyers as well as print and paper manufacturers are invited to add their own contributions to the Print Buyer Glossary to help to make it the premier printing resource directory.
