Method and apparatus for incorporating pre-personalized signatures within magazines, books, catalogs, etc. which are intelligently matched to recipient name and address information printed on the covers of the magazines, books, etc. In one embodiment, pre-personalized signatures are printed off-line and later supplied to a signature feeder in the bindery line. Before or after deposit on the bindery chain conveyor, coded indicia on the pre-personalized signatures are machine read and processed through a control processor and related storage memory for locating and printing recipient name and address information on the magazine cover, matched to the pre-personalized signature.
