a division of the Sheridan companies that CJK acquired in 2017.  The contest for supremacy in book manufacturing  in the US is now between LSC Communications, North America's largest book printer  (however LSC  emerges from bankruptcy) and the CJK Group. What impact this will have on Canadian book printer such as Friesens, Marquis and Transcontinental  is not known. The book printing capacity in North America will dramatically increase with the restarting of Quads old Kentucky book printing plant.
