Casterman Printing Feeling Recession?

The language here seems a little baroque to me -- plus it's in French -- but if I'm reading this post correctly it's merely stating that Casterman Printing, which has been separate from the similarly-named publishing operations for about a decade, is beginning to feel the pressure of the worldwide recession and the use of Asian printers by comics companies that might typically bring them their business. At least they feel the pressure enough to complete some sort of paperwork that may eventually see them seeking help. I'm not sure there's a lot here as a story, but I've heard so little about any recent economic impact on French-language comics that it caught my attention.
