Abstract

A method of producing a newspaper having at least one section which is formed from at least one centrally folded printed sheet. The following steps are carried out according to the invention: a) individual sequentially printed sheets, which are intended for forming the individual sections of the newspaper, are fed continuously to a first collecting station, and sheets which are assigned to one common section are positioned one above the other (collected) to form a sheet stack; b) a finished sheet stack is conveyed away from the first collecting station, a first sheet of a further section being fed to the first collecting station while the preceding sheet stack is being conveyed away from the first collecting station or once it has been conveyed away therefrom; c) the finished sheet stack is folded in order to produce a section; d) the section is deposited in a second collecting station such that it comes to rest on, if appropriate, an already deposited section; e) the steps a) to d) are repeated, if appropriate, until all the sections of the newspaper have been completed and positioned one upon the other to form a section stack.
