Buncha news releases have been piling up over the past 2 weeks, so here are a few tidbits:

Domtar has released a promotional series titled "Why Paper?" that explains why, even in this digital age, paper is still the go-to for communication. The piece was designed by Dallas-based Squires & Co. and printed by Anderson Litho.



Alien Skin software released its new Exposure 2, which includes effects and settings that add warmth, softness and grain to digital images, allowing designers and photographers to mimic the look of film and darkroom processing.

Mohawk tapped Chicago-based VSA Partners for a two-part promo for its Strathmore Writing and Script brands. "From Exploration to Implementation" parts 1 and 2 document the development of identities for high-end clients and showcase (with pull-out samples) the paper's application for letterhead and brand systems.
