EFI announced that it has acquired Lector Computersysteme GmbH, a print management information system (MIS) developer based in Mönchengladbach, Germany. Lector is a leading provider of German-language MIS software, and the acquisition will strengthen EFI's MIS leadership position in Europe.

"EFI continues to prove it is a world-class provider when it comes to helping printing companies improve their management operations and grow profitably," said Frank Mertzbach, founder and former owner of Lector. "We are excited to give our customers access to technology from the world's leading developer of print MIS software."
