  Company History GGS was originally founded in 1969 in Gettysburg, PA as Caxton Company, a typesetting company. It was later moved to York, PA.

It was renamed General Graphic Services (GGS) in the mid-1970s, and the company began to produce technical publications due to its expertise in merging electronic text and graphics.

The company was purchased in 1988 by Paul V. Kilker following a successful leveraged buyout and in late 1996 the name was changed to GGS Information Services, in an effort to better reflect an expanded and growing offering of technical information, book publishing, database management, and document imaging services.

In March 2002, GGS acquired DocuScan USA, a small local document scanning, imaging, and archiving company located in York, PA.

In late 2003, the company created two distinct and separate divisions – GGS Book Services and GGS Technical Publication Services - to better meet the individual needs of specific customers in the book publishing industry and those engaged in the manufacture or production of highly specialized or technical equipment.

In early 2004, the company opened its first international office in Chennai, India, in the province of Tamil Nadu along India’s eastern coast, as GGS Information Services India Private Limited (Pvt. Ltd.).

In early 2008, the GGS Book Services division was acquired by PreMedia Global USA Inc, allowing GGS to focus fully on technical information development and delivery worldwide.

Today, GGS Technical Publication Services is the world’s largest privately held, global technical information services provider.
