We attended this year's Graphic Expo in SMX, SM Mall of Asia, 2 times - 1st on June 2 and 2nd, June 4.
First time we attended this was 3 years ago, 18th Graphic Expo, and I could say that a lot of this have changed since then. Printing technology has advanced and so did cutter plotters, big thanks to Big Pix for showing all these to us.
