The present system employs, in a preferred embodiment, four principal stations connected by a network. At a first station text information is accepted from documents and the like and is converted into machine readable signals. At a second station graphic information is accepted from documents and the like and is converted into machine readable signals. At the second station graphic information may be expanded and reduced to enhance the graphic displays. At a third station there resides a major computer system which provides control signals and accepts information from both the first and second stations and formats such information into page forms. At a fourth station there is located a laser printer. The major computer provides, over the network, page formatted information to the laser printer which in turn prints text and graphics of "print shop" quality.
