We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets
available for benefits of Bowne&nbsp;&#38; Co., Inc. 401(k)
Savings Plan as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2003 and the
related statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan&#146;s
Trustees. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0; color: #000000; background: #ffffff;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0; color: #000000; background: #ffffff;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets
available for benefits of Bowne&nbsp;&#38; Co., Inc. 401(k)
Savings Plan at December&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2003 and the changes
in net assets available for benefits for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2004 in conformity with U.S.&nbsp;generally
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion
on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
supplemental schedule&nbsp;H, Line 4i&nbsp;&#151; Schedule of
Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 is
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is
supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor&#146;s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The
supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan&#146;s
management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as
a whole.

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the
Company by a letter dated December&nbsp;10, 2001 that the Plan
and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable
sections of the Code. Once qualified, the Plan is required to
operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its
qualification. The Plan has been amended since receiving its
last determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and
the Plan&#146;s tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently
designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the Code. Therefore, they believe that the Plan
was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the
financial statement date.

party-in-interest. The Plan also invests in Bowne&nbsp;&#38;

In November 2004, the Company sold its document outsourcing
business, Bowne Business Solutions, LLC (BBS). On
November&nbsp;3, 2004 the Plan was amended to allow BBS
employees to continue to be eligible for participation in the
plan through December&nbsp;31, 2004, subject to certain
limitations. On December&nbsp;17, 2004 the Plan was further
amended to not permit BBS employees participating in the Plan to
change contribution rate elections for future contributions or
take new loans or hardship withdrawals effective
December&nbsp;23, 2004, and effective December&nbsp;30, 2004 the
BBS employees participating in the Plan were not permitted to
reallocate their contributions amongst the Plan&#146;s
investment funds or take non-hardship withdrawals or
distributions from the Plan. Effective December&nbsp;31, 2004,
BBS employees were no longer eligible to participate in the Plan
and the amount of assets equal to the participants&#146; account
balances under the Plan as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 were
transferred to a separate qualified plan (BBS Plan) for these
participants. Upon the transfer of the account balances, all
obligations related to the Plan ceased and the benefit payments
and liabilities are obligations of the BBS Plan. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2004, the total amount of assets belonging to
BBS employees participating in the Plan that were required to be
transferred to the BBS Plan was $29,392,370. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2004, the Company transferred $29,299,866 to
the BBS Plan. The remaining amount required to be transferred is
recorded as a liability in the Statements of Net Assets
Available For Benefits as of December&nbsp;31, 2004.
