In this engaging interview with Morten B. Reitoft from Inkish, we had the opportunity to discuss the revival of print media and the significance of honoring industry legends, like Jonathan Seybold. We share how Markzware's early success is tied to Seybold conferences, particularly with FlightCheck's introduction by Patrick Marchese and Ron Crandall, in the mid '90s. It was thrilling to see how that prepress product took off, after its debut at Seybold San Francisco, generating thousands of pre-orders.
Morten explained the motivation behind Inkish's new subscription-based print magazine, which features a special issue dedicated to Jonathan Seybold. He emphasized the importance of preserving the legacy of influential figures in our industry, noting that many of these stories and contributions can get lost over time. Inkish's plan to honor industry pioneers at future events, ensuring their contributions are never forgotten really resonates with us.
During our conversation, Morten shared details about how readers can soon subscribe to the magazine, as Inkish is updating their English news website. It is fascinating that this magazine is printed using cutting-edge Landa technology, showcasing the blend of tradition and innovation in print.
We reminisced about the Seybold shows, particularly the significance of San Francisco and Boston events for publishers and printers. Morten noted how Inkish aims to provide in-depth analysis and context around technology in their publications, reminiscent of the detailed reporting that defined Seybold Reports.
Inkish plans exciting future issues, including an issue focused on Heidelberg's history and its evolution over the years. This approach highlights technological advancements and provides valuable insights for our industry's top management.
