The Latin America print on demand market size was valued at USD 823.20 million in 2024 and is projected to reach from USD 1030.65 million in 2025 to USD 6222.21 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 25.2% during the forecast period (2025-2033).

Printing on demand is a technology and business practice that allows printing just one copy or a small number of copies of a book or other document. This is done by waiting to make copies of the book (or another document) until the company gets an order. Before digital printing was invented, "print on demand" was impossible because it was too expensive to make a single copy using traditional printing methods like offset and letterpress. This stopped other companies from developing their versions of the build-to-order business plan.
