The undersigned Registrant hereby amends the following Item 7 (b) of its Current
Report on Form 8-K filed on November 18, 1997 and amended on January 16, 1998,
and amends the following Item 7 (b) and 7 (c) of its Current Report on Form 8-K
filed on June 12, 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 fiscal years ended July 31, 1998 and 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 years ended July 31, 1998 and July 31,1997, (ii) Wallace's
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended October 31, 1997, January
31, 1998, and April 30, 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.

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 $225.6 million over a 40-year period ($225.6 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 nine months ended July 31, 1998 operating results including
     Wallace and Graphic.

n)   Wallace effective tax rate was 40.0% for fiscal years ended July 31, 1997 
     and July 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
