                                  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
            CreoScitex Reports US$30 Million Sales Success at Graph Expo 2000

Vancouver, BC CANADA (October 11, 2000) - CreoScitex, a division of Creo Products Inc.
(NASDAQ: CREO; TSE: CRE), recorded more than US$30 million in orders and letters of intent
for the sale of products and services during the four-day-long Graph Expo 2000 held in
Chicago last month. "Graph Expo was a resounding success," said Mark Dance, President,
CreoScitex. "We presented our integrated product line and a progressive strategy for our
workflow and output products. We´re clearly demonstrating the value of the April 2000
creation of CreoScitex."

One of the largest orders was for a US$4 million computer to plate installation at a U.S.
carton manufacturer.  The CTP deal is the largest in the history of the packaging market,
a sector of which only 5% has adopted CTP so far.

CreoScitex had tremendous visibility at Graph Expo and was selected as a "Must See 'Em" by
the Executive Outlook Conference Must See Em's Selection Committee for best overall booth
presentation and for the first public demonstration of the revolutionary SP™ Plateless
Digital Printing Technology. Large crowds viewed the technology that eliminates the need
for lithographic plates on an offset press and reduces on-press make ready time.  Three to
four jobs an hour were imaged and printed before crowds throughout Graph Expo.

CreoScitex announced many new products including the Lotem™ 800 Quantum platesetter,
combining the speed and automation of the Lotem with SQUAREspot™ imaging and the
Trendsetter Spectrum™ proofing capabilities.

Speed increases of up to 50% were also demonstrated on the Trendsetter and Lotem
platesetter families.  Lotem platesetters are being enhanced with several new optional

features including Dual Loading Cassette and Multi-Cassette Unit, Spectrum proofing for
integrated digital halftone proofing, and FM and High Definition Printing screening.
Another feature added to the Lotem family is automatic temperature compensation, which
allows consistent imaging at different ambient temperatures.  These products are planned
for release starting next month.

CreoScitex announced exciting new additions to the workflow product line including Brisque™
Extreme Version 4.0, Brisque Pack, Brisque6, and Brisque Open Digital Front End, as well as
Prinergy™ Version 2.0, the advanced Workflow Management Solution and end-to-end CT/vector
PDF workflow, including Prinergy Connect, Prinergy InSite, Prinergy Direct and Prinergy
Powerpack.

CreoScitex also unveiled its integrated workflow strategy with the release of a new
product, CreoScitex Production Manager (CSPM), planned for next year.  CSPM will allow
users to link the strengths of the Brisque Digital Front End and the Prinergy Workflow
Management Solution, both which will continue to be developed.  CSPM will be based on
Prinergy technology and will include management capabilities developed specifically to
meet the needs of Brisque users.

New CreoScitex technology, products and enhanced product models are described in more
detail at www.creoscitex.com.
