About
Launched in 2009 — and now in its second version as of March, 2012 — FPO (For Print Only) is a blog dedicated to the visual stimulus and the detailing of the development and production of printed matter: Annual reports, books, business cards, stationery suites, collateral materials, posters, packaging and anything else where ink meets substrate.
The name of the blog is inspired by the decades-old tradition of labeling images, illustration, and/or text that are not ready to print yet as FPO, “For Placement Only.” The play on words was very straightforward: Our blog will be only… for… print, so we named it For Print Only, “FPO.”
The content of FPO is generated from submissions by our readers. When provided, we will have the full scope of production details and project overview but we will also post projects where we are unable to gather all that information if we think they are worth sharing despite the lack of details.
Submissions are welcome and encouraged.
