Abstract
A system for customizing signatures delivered and processed on a conveyor line according to coded information includes an arrangement for selectively diverting certain signatures on the line to a packaging station at which signatures are individually wrapped, and returning signatures selectively wrapped to the conveyor line in synchronism with other signatures delivered on the conveyor line according to the coded information.
