Taiwan Paper Dome Introduction
Established in March 1949, originally named the "Printing Factory of the Taiwan Provincial Government Secretariat," it was under the Taiwan Provincial Government Secretariat until July 1, 1999, when it was restructured under the Ministry of Finance and renamed the "Printing Factory of the Ministry of Finance." It has now gone through a full sixty years. The main business includes the printing, sale, and award redemption of uniform invoices, as well as printing publications, books, forms, confidential documents, ledgers, bills, tax tickets, and securities for various government agencies and educational institutions, as well as accepting commissions from different levels of agencies. Throughout its operation, the printing factory has continuously evolved its business model: from labor-intensive to capital-intensive and then to knowledge-intensive, and its core operations have rapidly adjusted from production-oriented to marketing-oriented and then to service-oriented. Such swift and agile transformations play a crucial role in stabilizing tax collection, especially highlighting the fact that it has been undertaking the printing of uniform invoices for over 60 years, accompanying the economic and social development of various stages with profound symbolic significance in economic, social, and cultural terms. Additionally, it has produced many historical and unique prints, such as consumer voucher gift bags in line with national policies and applications of anti-counterfeiting printing technologies, showcasing innovative characteristics that keep pace with the times and possessing unique significance in industrial culture. The Taiwan Printing Exploration Museum is the first printing industry tourist factory in Taiwan and is the first to open the invoice printing process for both adults and children to explore and enjoy learning. Upholding the intention of industrial inheritance and educational inspiration, this museum allows visitors to experience interactive games during the guided tour process. Not only can they learn about the origin of text, how printing has changed the world, the secrets of winning a uniform invoice, and experience the magical effects of printing, but they can also learn how to use the old-fashioned platen press. We hope to present the beauty of printing to everyone, and we welcome everyone to join us at the "Taiwan Printing Exploration Museum" to become good friends with our Printing Gutenberg! *For more related information, please visit the official website of the Printing Factory.
