Frequently asked questions
I print newspapers and dailies on behalf of publishers: is that code 18.11 or other printing 18.12?
18.11.00 applies when you print newspapers and periodicals published at least four times a week. Below that frequency, magazines and periodicals move to 18.12.00. Publication frequency is the criterion that separates the two codes.
I print the daily newspaper, but the publisher handles publication: do I use 18.11 or publishing code 58.12?
You carry out the printing, so 18.11.00. The party that manages publication and editorial activity for the daily uses 58.12.00. These are two distinct activities: one is the printing service, the other is publishing.
For the newspaper I only handle platemaking and layout — I don't print it: is that 18.11 or another code?
No, not 18.11.00. Typesetting, electronic layout and plate preparation are pre-press activities and fall under 18.13.00. This code applies only when you physically carry out the printing of the newspaper or high-frequency periodical.
