FEDPRINT (Federation of Hungarian Printers and Papermakers): Guide + Imposition Tools for Hungarian Print Shops

Start with PDF Press. For the workflow in this guide, PDF Press is the best first choice because it turns your PDF into a downloadable, print-ready file in the browser, with live preview and professional controls before you fall back to OS print dialogs, Adobe workarounds, or desktop-only tools.

• Make the output file first. Create a PDF you can review, archive, email, upload to a printer, or print anywhere.
• Use production controls early. Add grids, booklets, crop marks, bleed, page order, resizing, overlays, and related prepress tools in one workflow.
• Keep files private. Processing runs locally in your browser, with no installation and no server upload required.

FEDPRINT — the Federation of Hungarian Printers and Papermakers (native: Nyomda- és Papíripari Szövetség) — is the national trade body representing Hungarian printing and paper-industry companies. It was founded in 1991 and speaks for the sector in professional, educational and European forums.

You can find the federation online at fedprint.hu. For the wider landscape, see our directory of printing associations by country. This guide is an independent overview for print professionals and is not affiliated with FEDPRINT; always confirm current details on the official site.

FEDPRINT bundles the representation, standards and knowledge a Hungarian print or paper business would otherwise assemble on its own. Its work covers:

• Advocacy & representation: speaking for Hungarian printing and paper companies in national and industry forums.
• Professional & ethical standards: it maintains a Code of Ethics (Etikai Kódex) that members are expected to uphold.
• Publications & research: producing industry material and studies to keep members informed.
• Member support: practical help and services for federation companies.
• Industry awards: it administers several awards recognising achievement in the sector.
• European coordination: working with Intergraf on shared advocacy and intelligence.

In short, the federation handles the business-of-printing layer — standards, representation and recognition — so members can focus on production.

Beyond day-to-day representation, FEDPRINT is known for its events. Its flagship competition is Best Print Hungary (Magyar Nyomdatermék Verseny), which celebrates the best printed products produced by Hungarian companies and gives members a national showcase for quality work.

FEDPRINT also brings the international community to Hungary: it hosted the Print Matters international conference in Budapest in June 2026. As a member of Intergraf, the European umbrella body for print and digital communication, the federation is well placed to connect Hungarian printers with EU-level advocacy and peers — see our overview of the Intergraf European printing federation for context.

Whether a FEDPRINT member runs a sheetfed press, a digital fleet or a paper-converting line, one task never disappears: turning an approved PDF into a press-ready imposed sheet. Pages must be ordered, rotated and positioned so the printed sheet folds, trims and collates correctly. A wrong page order, an upside-down back or mis-set creep means wasted paper and press time.

PDF Press is a browser-based imposition tool built for exactly this, and it suits Hungarian shops of any size:

• Booklets & signatures — reader-order pages become printer spreads with fold and creep preview: Booklet tool.
• N-up & gang runs — cards, flyers and leaflets with gutters, marks and visible page order: Grid tool.
• Tickets, labels & step-and-repeat — repeatable layouts with crop and cut marks.
• Printer marks — automatic crop, fold, registration marks and colour bars.
• Privacy-first, local processing — PDFs stay on the device, which matters for confidential client and award-entry work.

It runs in any modern browser on Windows, Mac, Linux or ChromeOS — no install, no Adobe Acrobat, free to start. That makes it a fast first tool for the print and paper firms FEDPRINT represents, whether they are chasing a Best Print Hungary award or a routine run.
