The undersigned Registrant hereby amends Item 7(b) of its Current Report on 
Form 8-K filed on November 18, 1997 and amended on January 16, 1998:

(b)  Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements

Introduction to pro forma condensed consolidated financial data.

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the six months ended January 31, 1998 and the fiscal year ended
July 31, 1997 present unaudited pro forma operating results for Wallace
Computer Services, Inc. ("Wallace") as if the acquisition of Graphic
Industries, Inc. ("Graphic") and the other transactions described in the next
paragraph (the "Pro Forma Transactions") had occurred as of the beginning of
the periods presented.  The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet presents the unaudited pro forma financial condition
of Wallace as if the Pro Forma Transactions had occurred as of October 31,
1997.  The excess of the purchase price of Graphic over the net identifiable
assets and liabilities of Graphic is reported as goodwill.  The carrying values
of Graphic's net assets are assumed to equal their fair values for purposes of
these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements unless
indicated otherwise in the Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Financial Data.  These values are subject to revision following the results of
several appraisals still pending.

The Pro Forma Transactions are:  (i) the Wallace acquisition of Graphic, which
is accounted for under the purchase method of accounting;  (ii) the issuance of
debt of $435 million under a new credit agreement dated as of October 31, 1997,
among Wallace, certain lenders and Bank of America NT & SA, as agent for such
lenders; and (iii) the pay down of Graphic's debt of $127 million.

As provided for in the agreement with Wallace, Graphic sold its Atlanta Blue
Print Company subsidiary to CD Acquisition Corp., a company controlled by
Carter D. Pope, President of Atlanta Blue Print Company, a Director of Graphic,
and son of Mark C. Pope, III, Chairman of Graphic.  As of October 31, 1997,
Graphic recorded the sale of its Atlanta Blue Print Company subsidiary for
$7,065,000 in cash and the related loss of $5,062,000.

The pro forma financial statements also reflect the historical amounts for
certain revenues and expenses for the periods from August 1, 1996 through the
respective acquisition dates for each of the following companies acquired by
Graphic: The LithoPrint Company, Harvey Press, Inc., and Bruce Offset Company,
Inc.  The impact of these acquisitions net of the pro forma impact of the
disposition of Atlanta Blue Print Company mentioned above is shown in a
separate column on the pro forma financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data does not reflect
any synergies expected to be realized after the Graphic acquisition (because
their realization cannot be assured).  The accompanying notes to Unaudited Pro
Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Data describe other adjustments related
to the Graphic acquisition.

THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA IS PRESENTED FOR
INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF THE OPERATING
RESULTS OR FINANCIAL POSITION THAT WOULD HAVE OCCURRED HAD THE GRAPHIC
ACQUISITION AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN BEEN CONSUMMATED AT THE
DATES INDICATED, NOR IS IT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF THE FUTURE OPERATING
RESULTS OR FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE COMPANY FOLLOWING THE GRAPHIC ACQUISITION.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data should be read in
conjunction with each of the consolidated financial statements of Wallace and
Graphic and the related notes thereto contained in (i) Wallace's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31,1997, (ii) Wallace's Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended October 31, 1997 and January 31, 1998,
(iii) Graphic's audited financial statements for the year ended January 31,
1997, which are included in Form 8-K/A filed January 16, 1998, and (iv)
Graphic's interim financial statements for the nine months ended October 31,
1997, which are included herein.

PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

a)   The pro forma adjustment to indebtedness reflects borrowings of $308.3
     million related to the financing of the Graphic acquisition net of
     conversion of indentured notes of $12.9 million to equity.

b)   Records the fair value adjustments for Graphic's fixed assets.  Wallace
     is currently awaiting the results of in process appraisals to determine if
     further adjustments are needed.

c)   Records the elimination of Graphic's equity accounts.

d)   Records the liability of $5.5 million for legal and investment banker
     fees due to the acquisition.

e)   Reflects the pro forma adjustment of various balances to fair market value.
     Includes changes in accounting policies to comply with those of Wallace.   
     The adjustment to Accrued Salaries, Wages, Profit Sharing and other
     includes $6.0 million related to the adoption of Wallace's accounting
     methods for accrued vacation and bonus. The remaining amount includes
     reserves for known liabilities and contingencies based on due diligence.
     These known liabilities include, but are not limited to, change in control
     liabilities, pending litigation, environmental remediation, pending tax
     related matters, pending administrative claims, pension withdrawal
     liabilities, and qualified benefit plan related matters.

f)   Records the deferred tax impact of the fair value adjustments.

g)   Reflects the pro forma purchase price allocation to goodwill for excess
     of purchase price over net assets and direct costs of the transaction,
     primarily financial advisory and legal fees; and to eliminate the goodwill
     of Graphic of $21.8 million as of October 31, 1997.

h)   Amortization of the estimated goodwill relating to the Graphic
     acquisition of $223.8 million over a 40-year period ($223.8 million/40 =
     $5.6 million).  The goodwill reflected on the Graphic balance sheet was
     being amortized over a 40 year period at $0.5 million per year.
     Accordingly, the pro forma incremental charge to goodwill is $5.1 million.
     The pro forma adjustment for the 3-month period ended October 31, 1997
     represents one quarter of the annual goodwill amortization from the
     acquisition of Graphic less Graphic's goodwill amortization for the
     quarter ended October 31, 1997.

i)   Reflects the net pro forma adjustment to interest expense.  The first
     adjustment is to reduce the Graphic interest expense to reflect the lower
     Wallace borrowing rate.  Graphic's borrowing rate under their revolving
     credit agreement is LIBOR plus 112.5 basis points, while Wallace's rate is
     LIBOR plus 27.5 basis points (at the date of the acquisition).  Using the
     6 month LIBOR rate of 5.8125%, this would amount to a reduction of
     interest of $1.4 million for the year ended July 31, 1997 and a reduction
     of $0.4 million for the quarter ended October 31, 1997.  The second
     adjustment is to record the interest expense on the proceeds of the loan,
     in the amount of $308.3 million, to finance the transaction.  At the
     current borrowing rate of 6.0875%, the incremental annual expense is $18.8
     million.  The impact of a 1/8% increase in the variable rate would be an
     additional $0.4 million annually.

j)   Reverses adjustments made in the quarter ended October 31, 1997 that are
     either non-recurring or apply to a prior quarter.  To the extent the
     charge applies to the fiscal year ended July 31, 1997 an adjustment is
     included there.  These adjustments do not have a material impact on prior
     quarters.

k)   Adjusts depreciation expense to reflect remaining lives and fair market
     value.  The impact for the year ended July 31, 1997 is additional expense
     of $0.3 million, and for the quarter ended October 31, 1997 is a reduction
     of expense of $0.5 million.

l)   Reflects the reversal of the results of operations for the Atlanta Blue
     Print Company, net of the results of operations for the previously
     acquired companies: The LithoPrint Company, Harvey Press, Inc., Bruce

PRO  FORMA ADJUSTMENTS (continued)

   Offset Company, Inc.  The amounts presented represent the historical amounts
   for certain revenues and expenses for the periods from August 1, 1996 through
   the respective acquisition dates for each company.  The results for the asset
   purchases of Presstar Printing Corporation and Graphic Technology, Inc. are
   immaterial for the periods presented, and as such are not included in this
   adjustment.

m) Represents second quarter ended January 31, 1998 operating results
   including Wallace and Graphic.

n) Wallace effective tax rate was 39.5% for fiscal year ended July 31, 1997
   and quarter ended October 31, 1997, and 40.0% for quarter ended January 
   31, 1998.


DETERMINATION AND ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE

The acquisition was made through an all cash purchase of Graphic's shares at
$21.75 per share.  The purchase price below assumes all options are exercised
and all convertible debt will be converted to stock.  Effective with the
consummation of the merger, each share was converted into the right to receive
$21.75 in cash, without interest.

Market value of shares (including options and converted 
 indenture notes)                                                  $308,300

Pro forma purchase price                                           $313,800


The Graphic acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase.  The preliminary
allocation of the proforma purchase price by Wallace is as follows (subject to
final fixed asset appraisals, as well as other possible accrual adjustments):
