<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>BOWNE &#038; CO. REPORTS 2005 FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS PER<BR>
SHARE of $0.11 vs. $0.08 in 2004</B>



<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Global Solutions Revenue and Segment Profit Increase</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NEW YORK, April&nbsp;27, 2005 </B><B><I>&#151;  </I></B>Bowne &#038; Co., Inc. (NYSE: BNE) today announced 2005 first
quarter earnings of $3.9&nbsp;million&#151;or $0.11 per diluted share&#151;compared to earnings of $3.0&nbsp;million,
or $0.08 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The results for both quarters were impacted by restructuring charges. Excluding the restructuring
charges, pro forma diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.15 in the first
quarter of 2005, compared to $0.15 in the first quarter of 2004. (See Pro Forma Supplemental Income
Information attached hereto for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to our
consolidated statements of operations).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Revenue was $226.9&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2005, compared to $232.7&nbsp;million in the
comparable quarter of 2004&#151;a 3% decrease. Financial Print revenue for the first quarter decreased
$9.6&nbsp;million, or 6%, year-over-year, the result of a 22% decline in transactional print revenue.
Globalization revenue for the quarter grew $4.3&nbsp;million, or 8%, over the same quarter in 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;We&#146;re pleased with the results of Bowne Global Solutions (BGS), especially the growth in revenue
and segment profit over both the preceding quarter and the comparable 2004 quarter,&#148; said Bowne
Chief Executive Officer Philip E. Kucera. &#147;Projects that had been delayed for some time are coming
to fruition, and we expect BGS&#146;s improving revenue run rate to continue. As is reflected in our
guidance, we are managing this business to be significantly more profitable than in 2004.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">David J. Shea, Bowne President and Chief Operating Officer, added, &#147;Our drop in financial print
transactional revenue mirrors the overall decline in capital market activity as measured by the
number of filings. Nevertheless, we&#146;re encouraged because we&#146;ve been awarded more than 50% of the
largest M&#038;A transactions announced in 2005. As these transactions are completed, we expect
corresponding revenues and profits to rise.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Bowne Financial Print: </B>For the first quarter, Financial Print reported revenue of $159.9&nbsp;million,
a $9.6&nbsp;million, or 6%, decrease from last year. Offsetting the transactional revenue decrease of
22%, non-transactional revenue, which includes Mutual Fund and Compliance revenue, increased 5%
over 2004. Segment profit for the quarter as a percentage of sales was 12.9% for the quarter,
compared to 14.5% for the same period in 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Bowne Global Solutions (BGS): </B>First quarter revenue of $58.9&nbsp;million was $4.3&nbsp;million higher than
the same period in 2004, while segment profit of $2.3&nbsp;million was $0.3&nbsp;million higher than 2004,
and as a percent of revenue increased 20 basis points. Revenue and segment profit increased $3.8
and $0.8&nbsp;million, respectively, over the fourth quarter of 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Corporate/Other: </B>Corporate spending increased $0.6&nbsp;million over 2004 primarily due to higher
professional fees. Litigation Solutions&#146; revenue was relatively flat, with revenues down $0.5
million and profits up $0.2&nbsp;million.



<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt">* * *


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Through an Overnight Share Repurchase program with Bank of America, Bowne repurchased 2,530,000
shares on December&nbsp;2, 2004. In connection with the program, Bank of America has been purchasing,
and will continue to purchase, shares in the market. At the end of the program Bowne will receive a
price adjustment in the form of additional shares or cash based on the volume-weighted average
price of shares acquired by Bank of America. Bank of America has purchased a total of 2,430,900
shares at an average price of $15.09 through April&nbsp;25, 2005. To date, the Company has not made any
purchases under its $35&nbsp;million open market purchase program.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Days sales outstanding increased to 72&nbsp;days in March&nbsp;2005 from 69&nbsp;days in March&nbsp;2004. Cash used in
operations for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2005 increased $24.6&nbsp;million to $40.8&nbsp;million, from net
cash used in operations of $16.2&nbsp;million in 2004. Net debt at March&nbsp;31, 2005 was $40.9&nbsp;million as
compared to net debt of $141.2&nbsp;million in March&nbsp;2004. Financial Print work-in-process inventory was
$28.2&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2005, as compared to $26.3 in March&nbsp;2004.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The company noted that forward-looking statements of future performance contained in the foregoing
and in the following statements and certain statements made elsewhere in this release are based
upon current expectations and are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those suggested here, including demand for and acceptance of the company&#146;s
services, new technological developments, competition and general economic or market conditions,
particularly in the domestic and international capital markets, and excludes the effect of
potential dilution from the Convertible Subordinated Debt and the impact from any future purchases
under our share repurchase program.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The 2005 outlook, which follows, is unchanged from our prior guidance given February&nbsp;2005.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Note: </B>In November&nbsp;2004, the Company sold its document outsourcing business to Williams Lea. The condensed consolidated
statements of operations for the prior period has been reclassified to reflect the results from this business as discontinued
operations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>As restated</B>: As previously disclosed in the Company&#146;s 10-K, the results for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2004 have been restated
to reflect the tax effect of corrections to intercompany adjustments related to foreign entities. While this restatement had no
impact on results of operations for the full year in 2004, the impact on the 2004 first quarter was a decrease in net income of
$296, or $0.01 per share.

Segment Information<BR>
(unaudited)</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Information regarding the operations of each business segment is set forth
below. Performance is evaluated based on several factors, of which the primary
financial measure is segment profit. Segment profit is defined as gross margin
(revenue less cost of revenue) less selling and administrative expenses. Segment
performance is evaluated exclusive of interest, income taxes, depreciation,
amortization, certain shared corporate expenses, restructuring, integration and
asset impairment charges, other expenses and other income. Therefore, this
information is presented in order to reconcile to income from continuing
operations before income taxes. The Corporate/Other category includes (i)
results from the litigation support services business, (ii)&nbsp;corporate expenses
for shared administrative, legal, finance and other support services which are
not directly attributable to the operating segments, (iii)&nbsp;restructuring,
integration and asset impairment charges, and (iv)&nbsp;other expenses and other
income.

quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2004 have been restated to reflect the tax effect of
corrections to intercompany adjustments related to foreign entities. While this
restatement had no impact on results of operations for the full year in 2004,
the impact on the 2004 first quarter was a decrease in net income of $296, or
$0.01 per share.
