Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	12 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation —The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “RRD”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounts of a business acquired during 2019 are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition. Nature of Operations —RRD is a global, integrated communications provider enabling organizations to create, manage, deliver and optimize their multichannel marketing and business communications. We have a flexible and comprehensive portfolio of integrated communications solutions that allows our clients to engage audiences, reduce costs and drive revenues. Our innovative content management offering, production platform, supply chain management, outsourcing capabilities and customized consultative expertise assist our clients in the delivery of integrated messages across multiple media to highly targeted audiences at optimal times for clients in virtually every private and public sector. Use of Estimates —The preparation of consolidated financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for items and matters including, but not limited to, allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, asset valuations and useful lives, employee benefits, self-insurance reserves, taxes, restructuring and other provisions and contingencies. Foreign Operations —Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Income and expense items are translated at the average rates during the respective periods. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) while transaction gains and losses are recorded in net income (loss). Deferred taxes are not provided on cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments when we expect foreign earnings to be permanently reinvested. Fair Value Measurements — Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. We record the fair value of our foreign currency contracts, available-for-sale securities, interest rate swaps, pension plan assets and other postretirement benefits (“OPEB”) plan assets on a recurring basis. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include long-lived assets held and used, long-lived assets held for sale, goodwill and other intangible assets. The fair value of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, short-term debt and accounts payable approximate their carrying values. The three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes valuation methodologies based on the reliability of the inputs, is: Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets. Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents —We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Short-term securities consist of investment grade instruments of governments, financial institutions and corporations. Restricted cash —Amounts included in restricted cash primarily relate to letters of credit and bank acceptance drafts. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. December 31, 2019 2018 Cash and cash equivalents $ 190.8 $ 370.6 Restricted cash - current (a) 32.9 32.9 Restricted cash - noncurrent (b) 0.1 0.1 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 223.8 $ 403.6 (a) Included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (b) Included within Other noncurrent assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Receivables — Receivables are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts and primarily include trade receivables, notes receivable and miscellaneous receivables from suppliers. No single client comprised more than 10% of our consolidated net sales in 2019, 2018 or 2017. Specific client provisions are made when a review of significant outstanding amounts, utilizing information about client creditworthiness and current economic trends, indicates that collection is doubtful. In addition, provisions are made at differing rates, based upon the age of the receivable and our historical collection experience. Transactions affecting the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Balance, beginning of year $ 25.9 $ 32.4 $ 35.9 Provisions charged to expense 7.4 13.3 3.2 Write-offs and other (12.8 ) (19.8 ) (6.7 ) Balance, end of year $ 20.5 $ 25.9 $ 32.4 Inventories —Inventories include material, labor and factory overhead and are stated at the lower of cost or market and net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials and finished goods. Provisions for excess and obsolete inventories are made at differing rates, utilizing historical data and current economic trends, based upon the age and type of the inventory. Specific excess and obsolescence provisions are also made when a review of specific balances indicates that the inventories will not be utilized in production or sold. The cost of 37.9% and 32.2% of the inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, has been determined using the Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) method. This method is intended to reflect the effect of inventory replacement costs within results of operations; accordingly, charges to cost of sales generally reflect recent costs of material, labor and factory overhead. We use an external-index method of valuing LIFO inventories. The remaining inventories, primarily related to certain acquired and international operations, are valued using the First-In, First-Out or specific identification methods. The components of inventories, net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials and finished goods, at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: 2019 2018 Raw materials and manufacturing supplies $ 139.4 $ 153.1 Work in process 64.6 75.1 Finished goods 116.4 120.1 LIFO reserve (18.6 ) (18.6 ) Total $ 301.8 $ 329.7 Long-Lived Assets —We assess potential impairments to our long-lived assets if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impaired asset is written down to its estimated fair value based upon the most recent information available. Estimated fair market value is generally measured by discounting estimated future cash flows. Long-lived assets, other than goodwill and other intangible assets, which are held for sale, are recorded at the lower of the carrying value or the fair market value less the estimated cost to sell. Property, Plant and Equipment —Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Useful lives range from 15 to 40 years for buildings, the lesser of 7 years or the lease term for leasehold improvements and from 3 to 15 years for machinery and equipment. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls that extend the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized. When properties are retired or disposed, the costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the resulting profit or loss is recognized in the results of operations. The components of property, plant and equipment at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: 2019 2018 Land $ 47.8 $ 51.0 Buildings 379.9 389.5 Machinery and equipment 1,704.7 1,797.1 2,132.4 2,237.6 Accumulated depreciation (1,632.4 ) (1,706.3 ) Total $ 500.0 $ 531.3 During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, depreciation expense was $115.8 million, $126.5 million, and $139.8 million, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 2017, we entered into an agreement to sell a printing facility in Shenzhen, China and transfer the related land use rights. As of December 31, 2019, we have received non-refundable deposits in accordance with the terms of the agreement of approximately $98.2 million which is recorded in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2019, the carrying cost of the building and land use rights is recorded in Other noncurrent assets and is not material. Goodwill —Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually as of October 31 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. For certain reporting units, we may perform a qualitative, rather than quantitative, assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. In performing this qualitative analysis, we consider various factors, including the excess of prior year estimates of fair value compared to carrying value, the effect of market or industry changes and the reporting units’ actual results compared to projected results. Based on this qualitative analysis, if we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value, no further impairment testing is performed. For the remaining reporting units, we compare each reporting unit’s fair value, estimated based on comparable company market valuations and expected future discounted cash flows to be generated by the reporting unit, to its carrying value. See Note 4, Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Amortization —Certain costs to acquire and develop internal-use computer software are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, up to a maximum of five years. Amortization expense, primarily related to internally-developed software and excluding amortization expense related to other intangible assets, was $29.4 million, $27.4 million and $23.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Deferred debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the related debt. Other intangible assets are recognized separately from goodwill and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. See Note 5, , for further discussion of other intangible assets and the related amortization expense. Financial Instruments —We use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to foreign exchange fluctuations in the ordinary course of business and to hedge the interest rate exposure on certain floating-rate debt. All derivatives are recorded as other current or noncurrent assets or other current or noncurrent liabilities on the balance sheet at their respective fair values with unrealized gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes, or in the results of operations, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in the results of operations. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge at inception, or fail to meet the criteria thereafter, are recognized currently in the results of operations. At inception of a hedge transaction, we formally document the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge. In addition, we assess, both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of the hedged item and whether the derivative is expected to continue to be highly effective. The impact of any ineffectiveness is recognized currently in the results of operations. Our foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are subject to master netting agreements that allow us to settle positive and negative positions with the respective counterparties. Derivatives Share-Based Compensation —We recognize share-based compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. We recognize compensation expense for share-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value. See Note 15, , for further discussion. Preferred Stock —We have two million shares of $1.00 par value preferred stock authorized for issuance. The Board of Directors may divide the preferred stock into one or more series and fix the redemption, dividend, voting, conversion, sinking fund, liquidation and other rights. We have no present plans to issue any preferred stock. We have reserved 0.2 million preferred stock shares for issuance under the Stockholder Rights Plan discussed in Note 16. Pension and OPEB Plans —We record annual income and expense amounts relating to our pension and OPEB plans based on calculations which include various actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases, turnover rates and healthcare cost trend rates. We review our actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is deemed appropriate to do so. The effect of modifications on the value of plan obligations and assets is recognized immediately within other comprehensive income (loss) and amortized into operating earnings over future periods. We believe that the assumptions utilized in recording our obligations under our plans are reasonable based on our experience, market conditions and input from our actuaries and investment advisors. See Note 9 , for additional information. Taxes on Income —Deferred taxes are provided using an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in our opinion, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. We recognize deferred tax liabilities related to taxes on certain foreign earnings that were not considered to be permanently reinvested. No deferred tax liabilities were recognized for foreign earnings that were considered to be permanently reinvested. We regularly evaluate whether foreign earnings are expected to be permanently reinvested. This evaluation requires judgment about our future operating and liquidity needs. Changes in economic and business conditions, foreign or U.S. tax laws, or our financial situation could result in changes to these judgments and the need to record additional tax liabilities. We are regularly audited by foreign and domestic tax authorities. These audits occasionally result in proposed assessments where the ultimate resolution might result in us owing additional taxes, including in some cases, penalties and interest. We recognize a tax position in our financial statements when it is more likely than not ( i.e., Income Taxes Spinoff Transactions — On October 1, 2016, we completed the separation of our financial communications and data services business (“Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc.” or “Donnelley Financial”) and the publishing and retail-centric print services and office products business (“LSC Communications, Inc.” or “LSC”) into two separate publicly-traded companies (the "Separation"). We completed the tax-free distribution of 80.75% of the outstanding common stock of each Donnelley Financial and LSC to our stockholders of record on September 23, 2016 who received one share of Donnelley Financial and LSC for every eight shares of RRD common stock held as of the record date (the “Distribution”). We originally retained 19.25% of the outstanding common stock of each Donnelley Financial and LSC, but disposed of our retained investment in those businesses in subsequent transactions. The Distribution was recorded as a reduction in Stockholder's Equity during the fourth quarter of 2016. During the second quarter of 2019, we identified an error in the accounting for the Distribution. As a result, the error, which was determined by management to be immaterial to the previously issued consolidated financial statements, has been corrected by increasing Accumulated Deficit by $12.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2019.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Dispositions and Acquisition	Note 2. Dispositions and Acquisition 2019 Dispositions On October 25, 2019, we completed the sale of substantially all of the Global Document Solutions (“GDS”) business for approximately $47.3 million, subject to a working capital adjustment. GDS primarily provides statements and print management services in Europe. The disposition resulted in a loss of $0.9 million during 2019, which was recorded in Other operating expense (income) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On May 8 , 2019, we sold the R&D business within the Business Services segment for net proceeds of $ million. The disposition resulted in a gain of $6.1 million during 2019, which was recorded in Other operating expense (income) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On March 31, 2019, our subsidiary, RR Donnelley Editora e Grafica Ltda. (“RRD Brazil”), filed for bankruptcy liquidation in bankruptcy court in Brazil. The bankruptcy petition was approved by the court shortly thereafter and a bankruptcy trustee was appointed. As a result of the bankruptcy liquidation, we recorded a gain of $4.0 million in Other operating expense (income) during 2019, primarily reflecting the reclassification of cumulative currency translation adjustments into earnings and ongoing expenses associated with the bankruptcy proceedings. Subsequent to March 31, 2019, the operating results of RRD Brazil are no longer included in our consolidated results of operations except for legal fees associated with the bankruptcy proceedings. The operations of RRD Brazil had been included in the Business Services segment. 2019 Acquisition On August 1, 2019, we completed an acquisition within the Business Services segment for a purchase price of $14.6 million consisting of $3.0 million in cash paid at closing, a $3.0 million note paid in January 2020 and $8.6 million in contingent consideration based on the future performance of the acquired business. The cost of the acquisition is primarily allocated to intangible assets related to client relationships based on the fair value at the acquisition date. 2018 Disposition On July 2, 2018, we completed the sale of the Print Logistics business for $60.0 million cash, of which we received $43.9 million after transaction costs, working capital adjustments and $4.9 million of cash which was included in the disposition. Net proceeds from the sale were used to reduce borrowings outstanding on our credit facility. The disposition resulted in a pre-tax gain of $3.6 million during 2018, which was recorded in Other operating expense (income) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Income taxes paid as a result of the sale were insignificant due to the utilization of capital loss carryforwards to offset the taxable gain. Prior to the sale, operating results for the Print Logistics business had been reported as services within the Business Services segment.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Note 3. Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under Topic 605. All revenue recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is considered to be revenue from contracts with clients. We recorded a net increase to opening retained earnings of $12.9 million as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily related to the timing of revenue recognition for certain inventory that has been billed but not yet shipped. Disaggregation of Revenue The following table presents net sales disaggregated by products and services: 2019 2018 2017 Products Commercial print $ 1,694.5 $ 1,935.6 $ 2,114.0 Direct marketing 676.7 581.6 545.7 Packaging 668.5 672.0 562.1 Statements 545.4 584.2 556.4 Labels 497.4 481.4 470.4 Digital print and fulfillment 492.1 474.4 478.0 Supply chain management 298.7 321.0 314.9 Forms 244.3 267.5 284.5 Total products net sales $ 5,117.6 $ 5,317.7 $ 5,326.0 Services Logistics $ 814.6 $ 1,109.3 $ 1,238.2 Business process outsourcing 232.3 248.1 222.2 Digital and creative solutions 111.7 125.1 153.2 Total services net sales $ 1,158.6 $ 1,482.5 $ 1,613.6 Total net sales $ 6,276.2 $ 6,800.2 $ 6,939.6 Products Our products revenue is primarily recognized at a point in time. We generally recognize revenue for products upon the transfer of control of the products to the client which typically occurs upon transfer of title and risk of ownership, which is generally upon shipment to the client. For certain products, w e are able to recognize revenue for completed inventory billed but not yet shipped at the client’s direction. The following is a description of our products: Commercial Print We generate revenue by providing various commercial printing products and offer a full range of branded materials including manuals, publications, brochures, business cards, flyers, post cards, posters and promotional items. Direct Marketing We generate revenue by providing audience segmentation, creative development, program testing, print production, postal optimization and performance analytics for large-scale personalized direct mail programs Packaging We generate revenue by providing packaging solutions, ranging from rigid boxes to in-box print materials, Statements We generate revenue by creating critical business communications, including customer billings, financial statements, healthcare communications and insurance documents. Our capabilities include design and composition, variable imaging, email, archival and digital mail interaction, as well as our innovative RRDigital solution set. Labels We generate revenue by producing custom labels for clients across multiple industries including warehouse and distribution, retail, pharmaceutical, manufacturing and consumer packaging. We offer distribution and shipping labels, healthcare and durable goods labels, promotional labels and consumer product goods packaging labels. Digital Print and Fulfillment We generate revenue by providing in-store marketing materials, including signage and point-of-purchase materials, as well as custom marketing kits that require multiple types of marketing collateral. Under the trade name Motif TM Supply Chain Management We generate revenue by providing workflow design to assembly, configuration, kitting and fulfillment for clients in consumer electronics, telecommunications, life sciences, cosmetics, education and industrial industries. Forms We generate revenue by producing a variety of forms including invoices, order forms and business forms that support both the private and public sectors for clients in financial, government, retail, healthcare and business services industries. Services Our services revenue is recognized both at a point in time and over time. Our logistics revenue is primarily recognized over time as the performance obligation is completed Due to the short transit period of logistics performance obligations, the timing of revenue recognition does not require significant judgment. Logistics We generate revenue by providing specialized transportation and distribution services using our third party logistics solutions. These services are comprised of freight services, including truckload, less-than-truckload, intermodal and international freight forwarding; international mail and parcel distribution; and courier services including same day and next day delivery. Business Process Outsourcing We generate revenue by providing outsourcing services including creative services, research and analytics, financial management and other services for legal providers, insurance, telecommunications, utilities, retail and financial services companies. Digital and Creative Solutions We generate revenue by creating and managing content for delivery across multiple marketing communications channels including print and digital advertising, direct marketing and mail, packaging, sales collateral, in-store marketing and social media Variable Consideration Certain clients may receive volume-based rebates or early payment discounts, which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be earned by our clients and reduce revenue accordingly. We do not expect significant changes to estimates of variable consideration. Given the nature of our products and the history of returns, product returns are not significant. Contract Balances The following table provides information about contract assets and liabilities from contracts with clients: Contract Assets Contract Liabilities Short-Term Short-Term Long-Term Balance at January 1, 2019 $ 2.7 $ 16.5 $ 0.6 Balance at December 31, 2019 2.0 18.9 0.2 Contract liabilities primarily relate to client advances received prior to completion of performance obligations. Reductions in contract liabilities are a result of our completion of performance obligations. Revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2019 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $14.8 million. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we reclassified $2.7 million of contract assets included at the beginning of the period to receivables as a result of the completion of the performance obligation and the right to the consideration becoming unconditional. Practical Expedients and Exemptions As part of the adoption of Topic 606, we have elected practical expedients and exemptions allowable under the guidance. We account for shipping and handling activities performed after the control of a good has been transferred to the client as a fulfillment cost. We accrue for the costs of shipping and handling activities if revenue is recognized before contractually agreed shipping and handling activities occur. We apply Topic 606 to a portfolio of contracts (or performance obligations) with similar characteristics as we reasonably expect that the effects on the financial statements of applying this guidance to the portfolio would not differ significantly from applying this guidance to the individual contracts (or performance obligations) within that portfolio. When the output method for measure of progress is determined appropriate, we recognize revenue in the amount for which we have the right to invoice for revenue that is recognized over time and for which we can demonstrate that the invoiced amount corresponds directly with the value to the client for the performance completed to date. We generally expense sales commissions and other costs to obtain a contract when incurred, because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within Selling, general and administrative expenses. We exclude sales taxes and other similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less

These charges primarily relate to the relocation of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China, other announced facility closures in the Business Services segment and the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment. Other restructuring charges of $16.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 are primarily comprised of environmental matters, lease terminations and other. For the year ended December 31, 2019 Additionally, we recorded a $5.7 million net gain on the sale of restructured facilities and equipment. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we also recorded charges of $2.9 million for multi-employer pension plan (“MEPP”) withdrawal obligations. For the year ended December 31, 2018, we recorded the following net restructuring, impairment and other charges: Employee Terminations Other Restructuring Charges Impairment and Other Multi-Employer Pension Plan Charges Total Business Services $ 10.1 $ 8.3 $ 4.8 $ 2.6 $ 25.8 Marketing Solutions 2.0 — 1.5 0.4 3.9 Corporate 0.8 7.6 0.7 — 9.1 Total $ 12.9 $ 15.9 $ 7.0 $ 3.0 $ 38.8 For the year ended December 31, 2018, we recorded net restructuring charges of $12.9 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment and four facility closures in the Business Services segment. We also incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $15.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2018, we recorded impairment charges of $13.7 million related to long-lived assets which were written down to their implied fair value of zero, primarily due to facility closures. Additionally, we recorded a $6.7 million net gain on the sale of previously impaired assets in the Business Services segment for the year ended December 31, 2018. The majority of these assets were previously impaired in 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2018, we also recorded charges of $3.0 million for MEPP withdrawal obligations. For the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded the following net restructuring, impairment and other charges: Employee Terminations Other Restructuring Charges Impairment and Other Multi-Employer Pension Plan Charges Total Business Services $ 12.1 $ 3.0 $ 0.1 $ 2.6 $ 17.8 Marketing Solutions 2.7 0.3 21.9 0.4 25.3 Corporate 8.7 0.8 0.4 — 9.9 Total $ 23.5 $ 4.1 $ 22.4 $ 3.0 $ 53.0 For the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded net restructuring charges of $23.5 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of selling, general and administrative functions across each segment, ceasing our relationship in a joint venture within the Business Services segment and a facility closure in the Marketing Solutions segment. We also incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. Additionally in the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded net impairment charges of $22.4 million, primarily related to the $21.3 million impairment of goodwill within the Marketing Solutions segment. The goodwill impairment charge was due to a major client beginning to transition their business away during the fourth quarter of 2017, as well as declines in sales with other existing clients which resulted in lower expectations of future sales, profitability and cash flows. The goodwill impairment charges were determined using Level 3 inputs, including comparable marketplace fair value data and a discontinued cash flow analysis. The remaining impairment charges recorded for the year ended December 31, 2017, were primarily due to the impairment of equipment and software associated with the facility closure in the Marketing Solutions segment. For the year ended December 31, 2017, we also recorded charges of $3.0 million for MEPP withdrawal obligations. Restructuring Reserve The restructuring reserve as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2019, were as follows: December 31, 2018 Restructuring and Other Charges Foreign Exchange and Other Cash Paid December 31, 2019 Employee terminations $ 4.8 $ 22.3 $ (1.8 ) $ (21.9 ) $ 3.4 MEPP withdrawal obligations 44.2 2.9 — (6.5 ) 40.6 Other 6.2 16.6 — (14.2 ) 8.6 Total $ 55.2 $ 41.8 $ (1.8 ) $ (42.6 ) $ 52.6 The current portion of restructuring reserves of $14.8 million at December 31, 2019 was included in Accrued liabilities and other, while the long-term portion of $37.8 million, primarily related to MEPP withdrawal obligations, employee terminations in litigation, environmental reserves and lease termination costs, was included in Other noncurrent liabilities at December 31, 2019.

Fair Value Measurement	Note 6. Fair Value Measurement Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. See Note 12, Derivatives In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, we are required to record certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, generally as a result of acquisitions or the remeasurement of assets resulting in impairment charges. The fair value as of the measurement date, net book value as of the end of the year and related impairment charge for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis subsequent to initial recognition during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2019 As of December 31, 2019 Impairment Charge Fair Value Measurement (Level 3) Net Book Value Long-lived assets $ 0.6 $ — $ — Goodwill 98.5 53.3 53.3 Other intangible assets 0.2 — — Total $ 99.3 $ 53.3 $ 53.3 Year Ended December 31, 2018 As of December 31, 2018 Impairment Charge Fair Value Measurement (Level 3) Net Book Value Long-lived assets $ 13.7 $ — $ — Other intangible assets 0.2 — — Total $ 13.9 $ — $ — Year Ended December 31, 2017 As of December 31, 2017 Impairment Charge Fair Value Measurement (Level 3) Net Book Value Long-lived assets $ 1.3 $ 0.7 $ — Goodwill 21.3 — — Other intangible assets 0.2 — — Total $ 22.8 $ 0.7 $ — See Note 4, Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges Our accounting and finance management determines the valuation policies and procedures for Level 3 fair value measurements and is responsible for the development and determination of unobservable inputs. The fair values of the long-lived assets held and used and long-lived assets held for sale or disposal were determined using Level 3 inputs and were estimated based on discussions with real estate brokers, review of comparable properties, if available, discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the current marketplace conditions. Unobservable inputs obtained from third parties are adjusted as necessary for the condition and attributes of the specific asset.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies We are subject to laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. We provide for expenses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such amounts are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are adjusted as new information develops or circumstances change and are generally not discounted. We have been designated as a potentially responsible party or have received claims in two active federal and state Superfund and other multiparty remediation sites. In addition to these sites, we may also have the obligation to remediate six other previously and currently owned facilities. At the Superfund sites, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act provides that our liability could be joint and several, meaning that we could be required to pay an amount in excess of our proportionate share of the remediation costs. Our understanding of the financial strength of other potentially responsible parties at the multiparty sites and of other liable parties at the previously owned facilities has been considered, where appropriate, in the determination of our estimated liability. We believe that our recorded reserves, recorded in Accrued liabilities and other and Other noncurrent liabilities, are adequate to cover our share of the potential costs of remediation at each of the multiparty sites and the previously and currently owned facilities. It is not possible to quantify with certainty the potential impact of actions regarding environmental matters, particularly remediation and other compliance efforts that we may undertake in the future. However, in our opinion, compliance with the present environmental protection laws, before taking into account estimated recoveries from third parties, will not have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In April 2019, we received a subpoena from the SEC related to previous business dealings with the Brazilian Ministry of Education. The SEC and Department of Justice (“DOJ”) are investigating the matter, and we are cooperating as they conduct their investigations. In addition, the DOJ has informed us that the Brazil authorities are also investigating the matter. From time to time, our clients and others file voluntary petitions for reorganization under United States bankruptcy laws. In such cases, certain pre-petition payments received by us from these parties could be considered preference items and subject to return. In addition, we may be party to certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that the final resolution of these preference items and litigation will not have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Leases We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in Operating lease assets, Short-term operating lease liabilities and Long-term operating lease liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. Operating lease assets also include any lease payments made and are reduced by any lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or not terminate the lease when we are reasonably certain that we will exercise any such options. Leases with an expected term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Our most significant leases are real estate leases for plants, warehouses, storage facilities, offices and other facilities. For real estate leases, we elected the practical expedient permitted under Topic 842 to combine lease and non-lease components. As a result, non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges, are accounted for as a single lease element. Our remaining operating leases are primarily comprised of leases of machinery and technology equipment. Finance leases are not material. Certain of our operating lease agreements include variable payments that are passed-through by the landlord, such as insurance, taxes and common area maintenance, payments based on the usage of the asset and rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Pass-through charges, payments due to change in usage of the asset and payments due to changes in inflation are included within variable rent expense. Our lease agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees, restrictions or covenants. The components of lease expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2019 Operating lease cost $ 97.7 Variable lease cost 34.0 Short-term lease cost 3.0 Sublease income (1.2 ) Total lease cost $ 133.5 Supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the year ended December 31, 2019 was as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2019 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities Operating cash outflows $ 84.9 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations Operating leases $ 69.1 As of December 31, 2019, the future lease payments under operating leases were as follows: Year Ended December 31 Operating Leases 2020 $ 71.0 2021 56.1 2022 38.1 2023 27.4 2024 16.8 2025 and thereafter 37.7 Total lease payments 247.1 Less: Amount representing interest 37.4 Present value of lease obligation $ 209.7 Weighted average remaining lease term 4.8 years Weighted average discount rate 6.6 % Comparative Period Disclosures under Topic 840 Rent expense for facilities in use and equipment was $110.0 million and $118.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Rent expense for vacated facilities was recognized as net restructuring, impairment and other charges. See Note 4, Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges As of December 31, 2018, future minimum rental commitments under operating leases were as follows: Year Ended December 31 Operating Leases 2019 $ 77.8 2020 56.9 2021 41.3 2022 27.7 2023 21.4 2024 and thereafter 33.4 $ 258.5 Subsequent to the Separation, we may be contingently liable for obligations under various operating leases for office, warehouse and manufacturing locations of LSC and Donnelley Financial. In the event that LSC or Donnelley Financial fail to make lease payments or fail to pay other obligations under these lease agreements, we may be required to satisfy those obligations to the lessor. Under various agreements executed at the time of the spinoff, LSC and Donnelley Financial agreed to fully indemnify us in the event that we would be required to make a payment on their behalf; however, there can be no assurance that the indemnities from LSC and Donnelley Financial will be sufficient to satisfy the full amount of any such contingent obligations. Our exposure to these potential contingent liabilities will decrease over time as LSC and Donnelley Financial pay monthly lease obligations and as the leases expire. As of December 31, 2019, these potential contingent obligations were approximately $78.8 million and $5.5 million for LSC and Donnelley Financial, respectively.

Compensation And Retirement Disclosure [Abstract]
Retirement Plans	Note 9. Retirement Plans We sponsor various defined benefit retirement income pension plans in the U.S., U.K., Canada and certain other international locations, including both funded and unfunded arrangements. Our primary defined benefit plans are frozen. No new employees will be permitted to enter our frozen plans and participants will earn no additional benefits. Benefits are generally based upon years of service and compensation. These defined benefit retirement income plans are funded in conformity with the applicable government regulations. We fund at least the minimum amount required for all funded plans using actuarial cost methods and assumptions acceptable under government regulations. We made contributions of $9.0 million to our pension plans during the year ended December 31, 2019. We expect to make cash contributions of approximately $9.2 million to our pension plans in 2020. In addition to the pension plans, we sponsor a 401(k) savings plan, which is a defined contribution retirement income plan. Certain former employees are entitled to healthcare and life insurance benefits provided they have met certain eligibility requirements. Generally, these former employees became eligible for these retiree healthcare benefits if they met all of the following requirements at the time of termination: (a) attained at least 55 or more points (full years of service and age combined), (b) were at least fifty years of age, (c) had at least two years of continuous, regular, full-time, benefits-eligible service and (d) completed at least two or more years of continuous service with a participating employer, which ended on their termination date. Different requirements need to be met in order to receive subsidized medical and life insurance coverage. This plan was frozen in 2016. Certain of the plan expenses are paid through a tax-exempt trust. Most of the assets of the trust are invested in trust-owned life insurance policies covering certain current and former employees of ours. The underlying assets of the policies are invested primarily in marketable equity, corporate fixed income and government securities. We operate a prescription drug program for certain Medicare-eligible retirees under a group-based Company-sponsored Medicare Part D program, or Employer Group Waiver Program (“EGWP”). The EGWP subsidies provided to or for the benefit of this program are used to reduce our net retiree medical and prescription drug costs on a group by group basis until such net costs of ours for such group are eliminated, and any EGWP subsidies received in excess of the amount necessary to offset such net costs are used to reduce the included group of retirees’ premiums. We also maintain several pension and OPEB plans in certain international locations. The expected returns on plan assets and discount rates for these plans are determined based on each plan’s investment approach, local interest rates and plan participant profiles. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we amended our Canadian OPEB plan requiring costs to increasingly be borne by retirees over the next three years until the full cost of these benefits is borne by plan participants in 2021. As a result, we reduced our OPEB liability by $31.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2018. The pension and OPEB plan obligations are calculated using generally accepted actuarial methods and are measured as of December 31. Prior to the plan freezes, actuarial gains and losses were amortized using the corridor method over the average remaining service life of active plan participants. Actuarial gains and losses for frozen plans are amortized using the corridor method over the average remaining expected life of active plan participants. The components of the net periodic benefit (income) expense and total (income) expense were as follows: Pension Benefits OPEB 2019 2018 2017 2019 2018 2017 Service cost $ 1.0 $ 0.7 $ 0.7 $ — $ (3.7 ) $ 1.3 Interest cost 33.3 31.3 31.6 10.1 9.4 11.1 Expected return on plan assets (46.3 ) (50.3 ) (50.3 ) (13.2 ) (13.9 ) (13.5 ) Amortization of prior service credit — — — (5.4 ) (3.3 ) (2.8 ) Amortization of actuarial loss (gain) 6.1 7.9 7.3 (1.7 ) (0.6 ) (0.1 ) Settlements and curtailments (0.1 ) 1.9 1.6 — — — Net periodic income expense $ (6.0 ) $ (8.5 ) $ (9.1 ) $ (10.2 ) $ (12.1 ) $ (4.0 ) Weighted average assumption used to calculate net periodic benefit expense: Discount rate 4.0 % 3.4 % 3.8 % 4.2 % 3.5 % 4.0 % Expected return on plan assets 5.2 % 5.5 % 5.9 % 6.5 % 6.8 % 6.8 % Pension Benefits OPEB 2019 2018 2019 2018 Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 933.0 $ 1,044.8 $ 277.1 $ 342.4 Service cost 1.0 0.7 — (3.7 ) Interest cost 33.3 31.3 10.1 9.4 Plan participants' contributions — — 7.5 10.1 Medicare reimbursements — — 6.6 6.4 Actuarial loss (gain) 126.7 (64.3 ) 16.9 (19.7 ) Plan amendments and other 2.1 0.7 — (32.6 ) Settlements (0.4 ) (8.5 ) — — Foreign currency translation 14.2 (26.5 ) 0.1 (1.3 ) Benefits paid (49.2 ) (45.2 ) (28.5 ) (33.9 ) Benefit obligation at end of year $ 1,060.7 $ 933.0 $ 289.8 $ 277.1 Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year $ 878.8 $ 979.3 $ 208.9 $ 228.6 Actual return (loss) on assets 133.4 (31.7 ) 33.6 (9.5 ) Settlements (0.4 ) (8.7 ) — — Employer contributions 9.0 10.7 7.2 7.2 Company reimbursements — — (7.6 ) — Medicare reimbursements — — 6.6 6.4 Plan participants' contributions — — 7.5 10.1 Foreign currency translation 14.0 (25.6 ) — — Benefits paid (49.2 ) (45.2 ) (28.5 ) (33.9 ) Fair value of plan assets at end of year $ 985.6 $ 878.8 $ 227.7 $ 208.9 Total net pension and OPEB liability recognized as of December 31 $ (75.1 ) $ (54.2 ) $ (62.1 ) $ (68.2 ) The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was $1,049.9 million and $921.9 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: Pension Benefits OPEB 2019 2018 2019 2018 Prepaid pension cost (included in other noncurrent assets) $ 41.2 $ 46.4 $ — $ — Accrued benefit cost (included in accrued liabilities) (2.7 ) (2.7 ) (0.4 ) (0.4 ) Pension liabilities (113.6 ) (97.9 ) — — OPEB plan liabilities — — (61.7 ) (67.8 ) Net liabilities recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets $ (75.1 ) $ (54.2 ) $ (62.1 ) $ (68.2 ) The amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, excluding tax effects, at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: Pension Benefits OPEB 2019 2018 2019 2018 Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income Net actuarial (loss) gain $ (334.1 ) $ (294.5 ) $ 32.1 $ 31.7 Net prior service credit 2.8 (0.7 ) 52.0 56.1 Total $ (331.3 ) $ (295.2 ) $ 84.1 $ 87.8 The pre-tax amounts recognized in other comprehensive loss in 2019 as components of net periodic benefit costs were as follows: Pension Benefits OPEB Amortization of: Net actuarial loss (gain) $ 6.1 $ (1.7 ) Net prior service credit — (5.4 ) Amounts arising during the period: Net actuarial (gain) loss (39.5 ) 3.4 Net prior service credit (2.2 ) — Settlements (0.1 ) — Foreign currency gain (0.4 ) — Total $ (36.1 ) $ (3.7 ) Actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10.0% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets were recognized as a component of net periodic benefit costs over the average remaining service period of a plan’s active employees. As a result of the plan freezes, the actuarial gains and losses are recognized as a component of net periodic benefit costs over the average remaining life of a plan’s active employees. Unrecognized prior service costs or credits are also recognized as a component of net periodic benefit cost over the average remaining service period of a plan’s active employees. For plans that are frozen or primarily inactive, unrecognized prior service costs or credits are recognized over the average life expectancy of the plan’s participants. Pension Benefits OPEB Amortization of: Net actuarial loss (gain) $ 10.0 $ (0.7 ) Net prior service credit 0.1 (5.5 ) Total $ 10.1 $ (6.2 ) The weighted average assumptions used to determine the benefit obligation at the measurement date were as follows: Pension Benefits OPEB 2019 2018 2019 2018 Discount rate 3.0 % 4.0 % 3.0 % 4.2 % Health care cost trend: Current Pre-Age 65 — — 6.2 % 6.5 % Post-Age 65 — — 6.2 % 6.5 % Ultimate — — 4.5 % 4.5 % The following table provides a summary of under-funded or unfunded pension benefit plans with projected benefit obligations in excess of plan assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018: Pension Benefits 2019 2018 Projected benefit obligation $ 819.7 $ 722.8 Fair value of plan assets 705.5 622.3 The following table provides a summary of pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018: Pension Benefits 2019 2018 Accumulated benefit obligation $ 811.3 $ 711.8 Fair value of plan assets 705.5 622.3 We determine our assumption for the discount rate to be used for purposes of computing annual service and interest costs based on an index of high-quality corporate bond yields and matched-funding yield curve analysis as of the measurement date. The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 included a prescription drug benefit under Medicare Part D, as well as a federal subsidy that began in 2006, to sponsors of retiree health care plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent, as defined in the Act, to Medicare Part D. Two of our retiree health care plans were at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D and were eligible for the federal subsidy. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, Medicare Part D subsidies received by us were negligible. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we received approximately $6.6 million in EGWP subsidies. Benefit payments are expected to be paid as follows: Pension Benefits OPEB-Gross Estimated Subsidy Reimbursements 2020 $ 48.5 $ 26.4 $ 1.8 2021 49.9 24.9 1.8 2022 50.8 24.7 1.8 2023 52.1 24.5 1.8 2024 53.2 23.9 1.8 2025-2029 274.8 110.2 7.8 Plan Assets Our U.S. pension plans are frozen and we utilize a risk management approach for our U.S. pension plan assets. The overall investment objective of this approach is to further reduce the risk of significant decreases in the plan’s funded status by allocating a larger portion of the plan’s assets to investments expected to hedge the impact of interest rate risks on the plan’s obligation. Over time, the target asset allocation percentage for the pension plan is expected to decrease for equity and other “return seeking” investments and increase for fixed income and other “hedging” investments. The assumed long-term rate of return for plan assets, which is determined annually, is likely to decrease as the asset allocation shifts over time. The expected long-term rate of return for plan assets is based upon many factors including asset allocations, historical asset returns, current and expected future market conditions, risk and active management premiums. The target asset allocation percentage as of December 31, 2019, for the primary U.S. pension plan was approximately 50% for return seeking investments and approximately 50% for hedging investments. We segregated our plan assets by the following major categories and levels for determining their fair value as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. All plan assets that are valued using the net asset value per share (“NAV”) practical expedient have not been included within the fair value hierarchy but are separately disclosed. Cash and cash equivalents— Carrying value approximates fair value. As such, these assets were classified as Level 1. We also invest in certain short-term investments which are valued at their unit value per share available to eligible participants at the measurement date. As such, these assets were classified as Level 2. Equity— The values of individual equity securities were based on quoted prices in active markets. As such, these assets are classified as Level 1. Additionally, this category includes underlying securities in trust owned life insurance policies which are invested in certain equity securities. These investments are not quoted on active markets; therefore, they are classified as Level 2. Additionally, we invest in certain equity funds that are valued at calculated NAV. Fixed income— The values of certain fixed income securities were based on quoted prices in active markets. As such, these assets are classified as Level 1. The remaining fixed income securities are typically priced based on a valuation model rather than a last trade basis and are not exchange-traded. These valuation models involve utilizing dealer quotes, analyzing market information, estimating prepayment speeds and evaluating underlying collateral to equate an NAV. Accordingly, we classified these fixed income securities as Level 2. We also invest in certain fixed income funds and securities in trust owned life insurance policies which are valued at NAV and included as Level 2. Real estate —The fair market value of real estate investment trusts is based on NAV. For Level 2 and Level 3 plan assets, as applicable, we review significant investments on a quarterly basis including investigation of unusual fluctuations in price or returns and obtaining an understanding of the pricing methodology to assess the reliability of third-party pricing estimates. The valuation methodologies described above may generate a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or future fair values. While we believe the valuation methodologies used are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions in calculating fair value could result in different amounts. We invest in various assets in which valuation is determined by NAV. We believe that the NAV is representative of fair value at the reporting date, as there are no significant restrictions on redemption of these investments or other reasons to indicate that the investment would be redeemed at an amount different than the NAV. The fair values of our pension plan assets at December 31, 2019 and 2018, by asset category were as follows: December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Asset Category Total Level 1 Level 2 Total Level 1 Level 2 Cash and cash equivalents $ 14.6 $ 10.0 $ 4.6 $ 16.1 $ 11.9 $ 4.2 Equity 0.1 — 0.1 0.1 — 0.1 Fixed income 239.4 — 239.4 219.4 — 219.4 Other 4.3 — 4.3 1.0 0.2 0.8 Subtotal $ 258.4 $ 10.0 $ 248.4 $ 236.6 $ 12.1 $ 224.5 Plan assets measured at NAV Equity funds $ 366.2 $ 324.7 Fixed income 316.2 274.0 Hedge funds and other 32.1 31.2 Real estate 12.7 12.3 Total plan assets measured at NAV $ 727.2 $ 642.2 Total $ 985.6 $ 878.8 The fair values of our OPEB plan assets at December 31, 2019 and 2018, by asset category were as follows: December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Asset Category Total Level 1 Level 2 Total Level 1 Level 2 Cash and cash equivalents $ 19.7 $ — $ 19.7 $ 36.6 $ — $ 36.6 Fixed income 30.2 — 30.2 — — — Other 0.4 0.4 — 0.2 0.2 — Subtotal $ 50.3 $ 0.4 $ 49.9 $ 36.8 $ 0.2 $ 36.6 Investments measured at NAV Equity funds $ 161.8 $ 124.8 Fixed income funds 15.6 47.3 Total investments measured at NAV $ 177.4 $ 172.1 Total $ 227.7 $ 208.9 Employee 401(k) Savings Plan — For the benefit of most of our U.S. employees, we maintain a defined contribution retirement savings plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under this plan, employees may contribute a percentage of eligible compensation on both a before-tax and after-tax basis. We may provide a 401(k) discretionary match to participants, but did not during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. MEPPs — MEPPs receive contributions from two or more unrelated employers pursuant to one or more collective bargaining agreements and the assets contributed by one employer may be used to fund the benefits of all employees covered within the plan. The risk and level of uncertainty related to participating in these MEPPs differs significantly from the risk associated with the Company-sponsored defined benefit plans. For example, investment decisions are made by parties unrelated to us and the financial stability of other employers participating in a plan may affect our obligations under the plan. During each of the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we recorded $2.9 million for MEPP withdrawal obligations. These charges were recorded as net restructuring, impairment and other charges and represent our best estimate of the expected settlement of these withdrawal liabilities. Total contributions to these plans for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 were $6.5 million and $6.6 million, respectively. See Note 4, Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges

Income Taxes	Note 10. Income Taxes Income taxes have been based on the following components of (loss) income before income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017: 2019 2018 2017 U.S. $ (151.8 ) $ (56.4 ) $ (12.1 ) Foreign 115.7 84.7 87.6 Total $ (36.1 ) $ 28.3 $ 75.5 The components of income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Federal: Current $ 10.4 $ 15.8 $ 60.9 Deferred 5.4 6.9 31.0 State: Current 0.3 (5.1 ) 0.2 Deferred 7.6 (7.4 ) (6.0 ) Foreign: Current 24.4 24.5 26.4 Deferred 8.5 3.2 (3.8 ) Total $ 56.6 $ 37.9 $ 108.7 The Tax Act was signed into law on December 22, 2017 and represents the most significant change to U.S. tax law since 1986. Key changes of the Tax Act are not limited to, but include the following: reduces the U.S. federal statutory rate from 35% to 21%; creates a territorial tax system rather than a worldwide system, generally allowing companies to repatriate future foreign-sourced earnings without incurring additional U.S. taxes; subjects certain foreign earnings on which U.S. income tax is currently deferred to a one-time transition tax; provides for new anti-deferral provisions to tax certain foreign earnings and a new base erosion tax; limits the deduction for net interest expense incurred by U.S. Companies; and eliminates or reduces certain other deductions. Also on December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (SAB 118) which provided guidance for companies analyzing their accounting for the income tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides that a company may report provisional amounts based on reasonable estimates. The provisional estimates were then subject to adjustment during a measurement period up to one year and were accounted for as a prospective change. During 2017, we recorded provisional estimates of the impact of the Tax Act within our income tax expense. To determine the amount of the transition tax, we were required to quantify, among other factors, the amount of post-1986 earnings and profits of applicable foreign subsidiaries, the amount of non-U.S. tax paid on those earnings, as well as limitations of foreign tax credits. During 2018, we continued to analyze and interpret new guidance and clarifications of the Tax Act, and as a result recorded adjustments to the provisional estimates. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we finalized our accounting analysis for the income tax effects of the Tax Act. However, in the future, we may be subject to additional taxes as required under the Tax Act, based upon new regulations and guidance which may adversely affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The following table outlines the reconciliation of differences between the Federal statutory tax rate and our effective income tax rate: 2019 2018 2017 Federal statutory tax rate (21.0 %) 21.0 % 35.0 % Change in valuation allowances 22.4 29.5 2.8 Interest limitation valuation allowance 74.7 84.6 — State and local income taxes, net of U.S. federal income tax benefit (20.2 ) (14.4 ) (2.9 ) Impairment charges 70.3 — 6.6 Foreign tax 14.2 16.4 4.2 Adjustment of uncertain tax positions and interest (1.8 ) (19.2 ) (3.2 ) Foreign tax rate differential (1.4 ) (13.1 ) (21.2 ) Impact of the Tax Act — 19.4 146.2 Tax impact of net gain on sale of Donnelley Financial and LSC shares 1.3 — (21.6 ) Tax impact on GILTI 14.8 15.3 — Tax impact on sale of Print Logistics — (9.3 ) — Other 3.5 3.7 (1.9 ) Effective income tax rate 156.8 % 133.9 % 144.0 % Included in 2019 is the impact associated with limitations on our interest expense deduction as a result of the Tax Act. Non-deductible interest expense will be carried forward; however it is more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be fully realized and a full valuation allowance was recorded in 2019. The income tax expense also reflects a non-deductible goodwill impairment charge. Included in 2018 is the impact associated with limitations on our interest expense deduction as a result of the Tax Act. Non-deductible interest expense will be carried forward; however, it is more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be fully realized and a valuation allowance of $23.9 million was recorded in 2018. The income tax expense also reflects final adjustments associated with the enactment of the Tax Act of $4.2 million to the one-time transition tax on foreign earnings, as well as $1.5 million to net deferred tax assets for the reduced corporate income tax rate. Additionally, the 2018 rate includes the inability to recognize a tax benefit on certain losses. Included in 2017 is the impact associated with the enactment of the Tax Act which included a provisional estimate for the one-time transition tax on foreign earnings of $103.5 million, net of current year tax benefit on U.S. operations, as well as a provisional adjustment to net deferred tax assets for the reduced corporate income tax rate of $6.8 million. The income tax expense also reflects non-deductible goodwill impairment charges, the inability to recognize a tax benefit on certain losses and the impact of the non-taxable gain on the sale of the Donnelley Financial retained shares. The sale of the LSC retained shares generated a pre-tax capital loss of $51.6 million. The related tax capital loss will be carried forward; however, it is more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be fully realized and a valuation allowance was recorded. Deferred income taxes The significant deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: 2019 2018 Deferred tax assets: Pension and OPEB plan liabilities $ 38.9 $ 43.9 Net operating losses and other tax carryforwards 255.2 280.0 Accrued liabilities 53.9 48.7 Foreign depreciation 30.6 36.4 Operating lease liabilities 48.7 — Other 9.4 9.8 Total deferred tax assets 436.7 418.8 Valuation allowances (237.5 ) (255.9 ) Net deferred tax assets $ 199.2 $ 162.9 Deferred tax liabilities: Accelerated depreciation $ (70.3 ) $ (64.3 ) Other intangible assets (9.4 ) (11.8 ) Inventories (10.0 ) (5.8 ) Operating lease assets (47.4 ) — Other (16.4 ) (18.9 ) Total deferred tax liabilities (153.5 ) (100.8 ) Net deferred tax assets $ 45.7 $ 62.1 Transactions affecting the valuation allowances on deferred tax assets during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Balance, beginning of year $ 255.9 $ 238.3 $ 154.1 Current year expense-net 34.5 29.1 84.5 Write-offs (50.1 ) (0.2 ) (6.8 ) Foreign exchange and other (2.8 ) (11.3 ) 6.5 Balance, end of year 237.5 255.9 $ 238.3 As of December 31, 2019, we had domestic and foreign net operating loss and other tax carryforwards of approximately $190.6 million and $64.4 million ($166.4 million and $113.6 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018), of which $123.9 million expires between 2020 and 2029. Limitations on the utilization of these tax assets may apply. We have provided valuation allowances to reduce the carrying value of certain deferred tax assets, as we have concluded that, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be fully realized. As a result of the Tax Act, we now have the opportunity to repatriate foreign cash, primarily generated from current year earnings, in a tax efficient manner. The previously taxed earnings from the transition tax and annual GILTI inclusion, as well as certain foreign earnings that receive a one hundred percent dividends received deduction may be repatriated with minimal additional tax consequences. As such, we are no longer permanently reinvested on certain foreign earnings yet remain permanently reinvested on all other foreign earnings and other outside basis differences. We record foreign withholding tax liabilities related to the certain foreign earnings for repatriation. We have recognized deferred tax liabilities of $6.7 million and $6.5 million as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, related to local taxes on certain foreign earnings which are not considered to be permanently reinvested. Cash payments for income taxes were $73.1 million, $37.2 million and $46.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Cash refunds for income taxes were $12.2 million, $52.4 million and $43.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our income taxes payable for federal and state purposes has been reduced by the tax benefits associated with the exercise of employee stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units. We adopted ASU No. 2016-09 "Compensation--Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" on January 1, 2017. Under this guidance, when awards vest or are settled, the excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recorded as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement instead of within additional paid-in-capital. The impact to our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 was $1.7 million. See Note 14, Other Comprehensive Loss Uncertain tax positions Changes in unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Balance at beginning of year $ 25.0 $ 30.9 $ 41.9 Additions for tax positions of the current year 0.1 0.2 0.2 Reductions for tax positions of prior years — (2.8 ) (9.0 ) Settlements during the year (0.4 ) (0.1 ) (0.1 ) Lapses of applicable statutes of limitations (1.6 ) (3.2 ) (2.1 ) Balance at end of year $ 23.1 $ 25.0 $ 30.9 As of December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we had $23.1 million, $25.0 million and $30.9 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits. Unrecognized tax benefits of $12.8 million as of December 31, 2019, if recognized, would have decreased income taxes and the corresponding effective income tax rate and increased net income. This potential impact on net income reflects the reduction of these unrecognized tax benefits, net of certain deferred tax assets and the federal tax benefit of state income tax items. As of December 31, 2019, it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within twelve months by as much as $2.3 million due to the resolution of audits or expirations of statutes of limitations related to U.S. federal, state and international tax positions. We classify interest expense and any related penalties related to income tax uncertainties as a component of income tax expense. The total interest (benefit) expense related to tax uncertainties recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations were $(0.3) million, $(1.1) million and $0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. There were no benefits from the reversal of accrued penalties for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. Accrued interest of $3.6 million and $2.9 million related to income tax uncertainties were reported as a component of Other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. There were no accrued penalties related to income tax uncertainties for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. We have tax years from 2010 and thereafter that remain open and subject to examination by the IRS, certain state taxing authorities or certain foreign tax jurisdictions.

Debt Debt at December 31, 2019 and 2018 consisted of the following: 2019 2018 Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility $ 42.0 $ 59.0 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019 (a) — 172.2 7.625% senior notes due June 15, 2020 65.8 65.8 7.875% senior notes due March 15, 2021 167.1 190.4 8.875% debentures due April 15, 2021 60.2 81.0 7.00% senior notes due February 15, 2022 140.0 140.0 6.50% senior notes due November 15, 2023 290.6 290.6 Term Loan due January 15, 2024 (b) 540.3 544.7 6.00% senior notes due April 1, 2024 298.3 298.3 6.625% debentures due April 15, 2029 157.9 157.9 8.820% debentures due April 15, 2031 69.0 69.0 Other (c) — 38.9 Unamortized debt issuance costs (12.8 ) (16.3 ) Total debt 1,818.4 2,091.5 Less: current portion 71.2 216.2 Long-term debt $ 1,747.2 $ 1,875.3 (a) As of December 31, 2018 the interest rate on the 11.25% senior notes due February 1, 2019 had contractually increased to 13.25%. (b) As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the interest rate on the Term Loan due January 15, 2024 was 6.80% and 7.51%, respectively. (c) Includes miscellaneous debt obligations. The fair values of the senior notes and debentures, which were determined using the market approach based upon quoted prices or interest rates available to us for debt obligations with similar terms and maturities, were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of our total debt was greater than its book value by approximately $29.3 million at December 31, 2019 and less than its book value by approximately $14.4 million at December 31, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we repurchased on the open market $23.4 million and $20.7 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7.875% senior notes due 2021 and 8.875% debentures due 2021, respectively . We recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2019 on the repurchase of the notes and debentures. On February 1, 2019, we retired the $172.2 million 11.25% senior notes using availability under our ABL Credit Facility. On October 15, 2018, we entered into a $550.0 million senior secured term loan B (the “Term Loan”) pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). Proceeds from the Term Loan, net of a $5.5 million discount, were used to repurchase certain senior notes, pay transaction fees and repay a portion of borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility. The Term Loan is scheduled to mature on January 15, 2024, at which time the remaining outstanding balance under the Term Loan will be due and payable. Principal payments of $1.4 million are due quarterly. The Term Loan bears interest based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a margin of 5% or a base rate plus a margin of 4%. On October 15, 2018, we repurchased $172.6 million and $257.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the . We recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $32.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 on the repurchase of the bonds, representing tender premiums paid of $29.0 million, write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.5 million and fees and expenses of $1.8 million We entered into an $800.0 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”) on September 29, 2017, pursuant to a credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), which replaced our prior $800.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility dated September 30, 2016. On October 15, 2018, we amended the ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit (i) the incurrence of the debt pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement and (ii) the incurrence of a lien on the ABL Priority Collateral (described below) to secure our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis. The ABL Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on September 29, 2022, at which time all outstanding amounts under the ABL Credit Facility will be due and payable. The amount available to be borrowed under the ABL Credit Facility is equal to the lesser of (a) $800.0 million and (b) a borrowing base formula based on the amount of accounts receivable, inventory, machinery, equipment and, if we were to so elect in the future subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, fee-owned real estate of ours and our material domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain eligibility criteria and advance rates (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). The aggregate amount of real estate, machinery and equipment that can be included in the Borrowing Base formula cannot exceed $200.0 million. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest at a rate dependent on the average quarterly availability and is calculated according to a base rate (except in certain circumstances, based on the prime rate) or a Eurocurrency rate (except in certain circumstances, based on LIBOR) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% and the applicable margin for Eurocurrency loans ranges from 1.25% to 1.50%. In addition, a fee is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the total commitments. This fee accrues at a rate of either 0.25% or 0.375% depending upon the average usage of the facility. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. Based on our Borrowing Base as of December 31, 2019 and existing borrowings, we had approximately $633.7 million of borrowing capacity available under the ABL Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under our ABL Credit Facility was 3.7%, 3.5%, 3.5% for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including, only to the extent included in the Borrowing Base, real property, in each case subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The assets of ours and the Guarantors consisting of accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts, machinery and equipment and, to the extent related to the foregoing, general intangibles, documents and instruments, as well as 65% of the equity interests of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “ABL Priority Collateral”), secure our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Facility and the related guarantees on a first-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the ABL Credit Facility on a second-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens. Our obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by a security interest in substantially all assets of ours and the Guarantors, including certain material real property, subject to certain exceptions and exclusions. The ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a second-priority basis, and all other collateral other than the ABL Priority Collateral secures our obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and related guarantees on a first-priority basis, in each case, subject to permitted liens. The ABL Credit Agreement and Term Loan Credit Agreement contain customary affirmative and negative covenants including negative covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to incur debt, make investments, make certain On June 7, 2017, we repurchased $41.7 million of the 6.625% debentures due April 15, 2029, $59.4 million of the 6.50% senior notes due November 15, 2023 and $101.7 million of the 6.00% senior notes due April 1, 2024 using borrowings under the prior credit agreement. The repurchases resulted in a net gain of $0.8 million which was recognized within loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 related to the difference between the fair value of the debt repurchased and the principal outstanding, partially offset by the premiums paid, unamortized debt issuance costs and other expenses. On May 22, 2017, certain third party financial institutions (such financial institutions collectively, the “Third Party Purchasers”), launched cash tender offers for certain of our outstanding debt securities, including our 7.625% senior notes due June 15, 2020 and 7.875% senior notes due March 15, 2021. On June 7, 2017, the Third Party Purchasers purchased $111.6 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7.625% senior notes due June 15, 2020 (the “Third Party Purchase Notes”). On June 21, 2017, we exchanged 6.1 million of our retained shares of Donnelley Financial for the Third Party Purchase Notes. We cancelled the Third Party Purchase Notes on June 21, 2017. As a result, we recognized a $14.4 million loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2017 related to premiums paid, unamortized debt issuance costs and other expenses. In addition, we recognized a net realized gain of $92.4 million resulting from the disposition of these retained shares of Donnelley Financial common stock within net investment and other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2017. On August 4, 2017, we disposed of our remaining 0.1 million shares of Donnelley Financial common stock in exchange for $1.9 million in aggregate principal of our 7.875% senior notes due March 15, 2021 which were cancelled. As a result, we recognized a $0.3 million loss on debt extinguishments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2017, related to premiums paid, unamortized debt issuance costs and other expenses. In addition, we recognized a net realized gain of $1.6 million resulting from the disposition of these retained shares of Donnelley Financial common stock within net investment and other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2019, we had $42.0 million of borrowings and $39.1 million of letters of credit issued under the ABL Credit Facility. We also had $137.0 million in other uncommitted credit facilities, primarily outside the U.S. (the “Other Facilities”), of which we had $87.6 million in outstanding letters of credit, bank guarantees and bank acceptance drafts. At December 31, 2019, the future maturities of debt were as follows: Amount 2020 $ 71.3 2021 233.0 2022 187.5 2023 296.1 2024 820.7 2025 and thereafter 227.3 Total (a) $ 1,835.9 (a) Excludes unamortized debt issuance costs of $12.8 million and $4.7 million of bond discount which do not represent contractual commitments with a fixed amount or maturity date.

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivatives	Note 12. Derivatives All derivatives are recorded as other current or noncurrent assets or other current or noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. Unrealized gains and losses related to derivatives are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, or in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. At the inception of a hedge transaction, we formally document the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge. In addition, we assess both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item and whether the derivative is expected to continue to be highly effective. The impact of any ineffectiveness is also recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We are exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations based on our global operations. Foreign currency fluctuations affect the U.S. dollar value of revenues earned and expenses incurred in foreign currencies. We are also exposed to currency risk to the extent we own assets or incur liabilities, or enter into other transactions that are not in the functional currency of the subsidiary in which we operate. We employ different practices to manage these risks, including where appropriate the use of derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forwards. To the extent the gains and losses associated with the fair values of foreign currency derivatives are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, they are generally offset by gains and losses on underlying payables, receivables and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The aggregate notional value of the forward contracts at December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $179.9 million and $170.8 million, respectively. The fair values of foreign currency contracts were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and are valued using market exchange rates. On November 20, 2019 and October 31, 2019, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure, effectively changing the interest rate on $200.0 million of our floating-rate Term Loan based on LIBOR to a fixed-rate. The interest rate swaps, with a notional value of $200.0 million, were designated as cash flow hedges against the variability of cash flows associated with our Term Loan scheduled to mature on January 15, 2024, which are attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate. The fair values of interest rate swaps were determined to be Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy and were developed using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future variable cash payments and the discounted expected fixed cash receipts. Credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. We evaluate the credit value adjustments of the interest rate swap agreements, which take into account the possibility of counterparty and our own default, on at least a quarterly basis. Our foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are subject to master netting agreements that allow us to settle positive and negative positions with the respective counterparties. Under these master netting agreements, net settlement generally permits us or the counterparty to determine the net amount payable for contracts due on the same date and in the same currency for similar types of derivative transactions. The master netting agreements generally also provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with a counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event. We manage credit risk for our derivative positions on a counterparty-by-counterparty basis, considering the net portfolio exposure with each counterparty, consistent with our risk management strategy for such transactions. Our agreements with each of our counterparties contain a provision where we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if we either default or, in certain cases, are capable of being declared in default of any of our indebtedness greater than specified thresholds. These agreements also contain a provision where we could be declared in default subsequent to a merger or restructuring type event if the creditworthiness of the resulting entity is materially weakened. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the fair values of our derivative financial instruments and their classifications on the Consolidated Balance Sheets were as follows: Classification on Consolidated Balance Sheets 2019 2018 Derivative assets Foreign currency contracts: Not designated as hedging instruments Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 0.9 $ 0.9 Interest rate swap agreements: Designated as cash flow hedges Other noncurrent assets 1.0 — Derivative liabilities Foreign currency contracts: Not designated as hedging instruments Accrued liabilities and other $ 0.1 $ 0.3 The pre-tax losses (gains) recognized on derivative financial instruments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: Classification of Loss (Gain) Recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations 2019 2018 2017 Derivatives not designated as hedges Foreign currency contracts Selling, general and administrative expenses $ 1.5 $ 2.0 $ (1.7 ) Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges Interest rate swap agreements Interest expense, net (0.1 ) — — The pre-tax gains recognized on derivative financial instruments in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges Interest rate swap agreements $ (1.1 ) $ — $ —

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per Share	Note 13. Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to RRD common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted earnings per share, basic earnings per share is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. Performance share units are excluded if the performance targets upon which the issuance of the shares is contingent have not been achieved and the respective performance period has not been completed as of the end of the current period. Additionally, stock options are considered anti-dilutive when the exercise price exceeds the average market value of our stock price during the applicable period. In periods when we are in a net loss, share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, no shares of common stock were purchased by us, however, shares were withheld for tax liabilities upon the vesting of equity awards. The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation and the anti-dilutive share-based awards for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Net loss per share attributable to RRD common stockholders: Basic $ (1.31 ) $ (0.16 ) $ (0.49 ) Diluted $ (1.31 ) $ (0.16 ) $ (0.49 ) Numerator: Net loss attributable to RRD common stockholders $ (93.2 ) $ (11.0 ) $ (34.4 ) Denominator: Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding 71.2 70.6 70.2 Dilutive options and awards — — — Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding 71.2 70.6 70.2 Weighted average number of anti-dilutive share-based awards: Stock options 0.5 0.8 1.0 Restricted stock units 1.0 0.8 0.8 Total 1.5 1.6 1.8 Dividends declared per common share $ 0.12 $ 0.34 $ 0.56

Share Based Compensation [Abstract]
Stock and Incentive Programs for Employees and Directors	Note 15. Stock and Incentive Programs for Employees and Directors We recognize compensation expense based on estimated grant date fair values for all share-based awards issued to employees and directors, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. We estimate the fair value of share-based awards based on assumptions as of the grant date. We recognize compensation expenses for those awards expected to vest, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of three years for restricted stock awards and stock options and the performance period for performance share units. For those awards in which there is no requisite service period, we immediately recognize the compensation expense. We recognize forfeitures as they occur as a reduction of compensation expense. Share-Based Compensation Expense The total share-based compensation expense was $10.9 million, $8.6 million and $8.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The resulting income tax benefit was $2.8 Share-Based Compensation Plans We have one share-based compensation plan under which we may grant future awards, as described below, and one terminated or expired share-based compensation plan under which awards remain outstanding. The 2017 Performance Incentive Plan (“2017 PIP”) was approved by stockholders to provide incentives to our key employees. Awards under the 2017 PIP are generally not restricted to any specific form or structure and could include, without limitation, stock options, stock units, restricted stock awards, cash or stock bonuses and stock appreciation rights. There were 7.3 million shares of common stock reserved and authorized for issuance under the 2017 PIP. At December 31, 2019, there were 3.8 million shares of common stock authorized and available for grant under the 2017 PIP. General Terms of Awards Under various incentive plans, we have granted certain employees non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and cash-settled stock units (“phantom stock units”). The Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors has discretion to establish the terms and conditions for grants, including the number of shares, vesting and required service or other performance criteria. The maximum term of any award under the 2017 PIP and previous plans is ten years. The exercise price of a stock option is equal to the closing price of our common stock on the option grant date and generally vest over four years. Options generally expire ten years from the date of grant or five years after the date of retirement, whichever is earlier. The rights granted to the recipient of restricted stock unit awards generally accrue ratably over the restriction or vesting period, which is generally three years. We have also granted restricted stock unit awards which cliff vest three years from the grant date. Restricted stock unit awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to vesting, subject in some cases to early vesting upon specified events, including death or permanent disability of the grantee, termination of the grantee’s employment under certain circumstances or a change in control of the Company. We record compensation expense of restricted stock unit awards based on the fair value of the awards at the date of grant ratably over the period during which the restrictions lapse. Dividends are not paid on restricted stock units. We also issue restricted stock units as share-based compensation for members of the Board of Directors. Director restricted stock units granted after January 2009 cliff vest three years from the date of grant with the opportunity to defer any tranche of vesting restricted stock units until termination of service on the Board of Directors. Awards granted between January 2008 and January 2009 vested ratably over three years from the date of grant and were amended in May 2009 to provide the opportunity to defer any tranche of vesting restricted stock units until termination of service on the Board of Directors. For awards granted prior to January 2008, one-third of the restricted stock units vested on the third anniversary of the grant date, and the remaining two-thirds of the restricted stock units vested upon termination of the holder’s service on the Board of Directors; the holder could also elect to defer delivery of the initial one-third of the restricted stock units until termination of service on the Board of Directors. In the event of termination of a holder’s service on the Board of Directors prior to a vesting date, all restricted stock units of such holder will vest. All awards granted prior to December 31, 2007 are payable in shares of common stock or cash. In 2009, the option to have awards paid in cash was removed for awards granted in 2008 and future years. Awards that may be paid in cash are classified as liability awards due to their expected settlement in cash, and are included in Accrued liabilities and other in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Compensation expense for these awards is measured based upon the fair value of the awards at the end of each reporting period. Awards payable only in shares are classified as equity awards due to their expected settlement in common stock. Compensation expense for these awards is measured based upon the fair value of the awards at the date of grant. Dividend equivalents are accrued for shares awarded to the Board of Directors and paid in the form of cash. We have granted performance share unit awards to certain executive officers and senior management. Distributions under these awards are payable at the end of their respective performance periods in common stock or cash, at our discretion. The number of share units that vest can range from zero to 150% for the 2019, 2018 and 2017 awards, depending on achievement of a targeted performance metric for a performance period of three years inclusive of the year in which the award was granted. These awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination under certain circumstances prior to vesting. We expense the cost of the performance share unit awards based on the fair value of the awards at the date of grant and the estimated achievement of the performance metric, ratably over the performance period of three years. In addition, we have granted phantom stock units to certain members of senior management. These awards vest and are payable in three equal installments over a period of three years after the grant date. Stock Options There were no options granted during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017. Stock option awards as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2019 were as follows: Shares Under Option (thousands) Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (millions) Outstanding at December 31, 2018 739 $ 19.99 1.4 $ — Cancelled/forfeited/expired (319 ) 11.57 Outstanding at December 31, 2019 420 26.38 1.4 — Vested and exercisable at December 31, 2019 420 $ 26.38 1.4 $ — There was no unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options as of December 31, 2019. Restricted Stock Units Nonvested restricted stock unit awards as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2019 were as follows: Shares (thousands) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Nonvested at December 31, 2018 1,311 $ 10.71 Granted 930 4.14 Vested (989 ) 9.48 Forfeited (17 ) 17.13 Nonvested at December 31, 2019 1,235 $ 6.66 As of December 31, 2019, there was $4.3 million of unrecognized share-based compensation which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 years. The fair value of these awards was determined based on our stock price on the grant date reduced by the present value of expected dividends through the vesting period. Performance Share Units Nonvested performance share unit awards as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2019, were as follows: Shares (thousands) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Nonvested at December 31, 2018 940 $ 8.89 Granted 615 4.77 Forfeited (9 ) 16.30 Nonvested at December 31, 2019 1,546 $ 7.21 As of December 31, 2019, there was $3.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to performance share unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. Phantom Stock Units Phantom stock unit awards as of December 31, 2019 and changes during the year ended December 31, 2019, were as follows: Shares (thousands) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Nonvested at December 31, 2018 762 $ 8.73 Granted 1,799 5.36 Vested (6 ) 8.73 Forfeited (242 ) 6.28 Nonvested at December 31, 2019 2,313 $ 5.87 As of December 31, 2019, there was $6.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to phantom stock unit awards based on the price of our common stock on that date

Stockholder Rights Plan	Note 16. Stockholder Rights Plan On August 28, 2019, our Board of Directors approved a Stockholder Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”). Under the terms of the Rights Agreement, each share of our common stock is accompanied by one right; each right entitles the stockholder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a newly issued share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $12, subject to adjustment. Subject to certain exceptions, the rights become exercisable 10 business days following a public announcement that a person (the “Acquiring Person”) has acquired beneficial ownership of 10% (or 20% in certain circumstances ) In the event a person becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a right, other than the Acquiring Person, will have the right to receive common stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or other securities of the Company) having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the right. In the event that we are acquired in a merger or other business combination as defined in the Rights Agreement, or 50% or more of our assets or earnings power is sold, each right entitles the holders to purchase common stock of the acquiring company having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the right. At any time after a person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the acquisition by any person or group of 50% or more of the outstanding common stock, the Board of Directors may exchange the rights (other than rights owned by such person or group which have become void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock, or one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock (or of a share of a class or series of the Company’s preferred stock having equivalent rights, preferences and privileges), per right, subject to adjustment.

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]
New Accounting Pronouncements	Note 18. New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-02 “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which permits the reclassification of tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings as a result of the Tax Act. The standard also requires entities to disclose whether or not they elected to reclassify the tax effects related to the Tax Act from accumulated other comprehensive income. The standard allows the option of applying either a retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods in which the effect of the Tax Act is recognized, or applying the amendments in the period of adoption, meaning an adjustment is made to stockholders’ equity as of the beginning of the reporting period. ASU 2018-02 was effective in the first quarter of 2019; however, early adoption was permitted for interim and annual periods, including the reporting period in which the Tax Act was enacted. As of July 1, 2018, we adopted the provisions of ASU 2018-02, which resulted in a decrease to Accumulated deficit and increase to Accumulated other comprehensive loss of $22.0 million. In January 2018, the FASB released guidance on the accounting for tax on the global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions in the Tax Act. The GILTI provisions impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The guidance indicates that either accounting for deferred taxes related to GILTI inclusions or treating any taxes on GILTI inclusions as period costs are both acceptable methods subject to an accounting policy election. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we elected to treat the tax effect of GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost,” which changed the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit cost (net benefit cost) within the Statement of Operations. Under the previous guidance, net benefit cost was reported as an employee cost within income from operations. The amendment required the bifurcation of net benefit cost, with the service cost component presented with other employee compensation costs in income from operations while the other components are presented separately outside of income from operations. We retrospectively adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2018 and elected to use, as a practical expedient, See Note 9, Retirement Plans , for further discussion. The impact of adoption was a $4.1 million increase in Total cost of sales, $11.0 million increase in Selling, general and administrative expenses and $15.1 million increase in Investment and other income-net for the year ended December 31, 2017 to the amounts previously reported. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. “Codification Improvements to Topic and We adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2019 Commitments and Contingencies In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which outlined a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue using a five-step process that superseded virtually all existing revenue guidance. ASU 2014-09 also required additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. During 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 ASU 2016-10 “ and ASU 2016-12 which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations, identifying performance obligations, determining whether an entity's promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use or a right to access the entity's intellectual property, assessing the collectability criteria, presentation of sales and similar taxes, noncash consideration and various other items. Revenue Recognition In accordance with Topic 606, the impact of adoption as compared to the prior guidance on our Consolidated Statements of Operations . No other financial statement line item was materially impacted. Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)” (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The standard also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, however early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2019-12 on the consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract” (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. ASU 2018-15 will be effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, however early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-15 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans” (“ASU 2018-14”), which removes certain disclosures that are no longer cost beneficial and also includes additional disclosures to improve the overall usefulness of the disclosure requirements to financial statement users. ASU 2018-14 will be effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, however early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-14 on the consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Under the new guidance, entities will be required to measure expected credit losses for financial instruments, including trade receivables, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Nature of Operations	Nature of Operations —RRD is a global, integrated communications provider enabling organizations to create, manage, deliver and optimize their multichannel marketing and business communications. We have a flexible and comprehensive portfolio of integrated communications solutions that allows our clients to engage audiences, reduce costs and drive revenues. Our innovative content management offering, production platform, supply chain management, outsourcing capabilities and customized consultative expertise assist our clients in the delivery of integrated messages across multiple media to highly targeted audiences at optimal times for clients in virtually every private and public sector.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates —The preparation of consolidated financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires the extensive use of management’s estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for items and matters including, but not limited to, allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, asset valuations and useful lives, employee benefits, self-insurance reserves, taxes, restructuring and other provisions and contingencies.
Foreign Operations	Foreign Operations —Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Income and expense items are translated at the average rates during the respective periods. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) while transaction gains and losses are recorded in net income (loss). Deferred taxes are not provided on cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments when we expect foreign earnings to be permanently reinvested.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements — Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. We record the fair value of our foreign currency contracts, available-for-sale securities, interest rate swaps, pension plan assets and other postretirement benefits (“OPEB”) plan assets on a recurring basis. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include long-lived assets held and used, long-lived assets held for sale, goodwill and other intangible assets. The fair value of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, short-term debt and accounts payable approximate their carrying values. The three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes valuation methodologies based on the reliability of the inputs, is: Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets. Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash	Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents —We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Short-term securities consist of investment grade instruments of governments, financial institutions and corporations. Restricted cash —Amounts included in restricted cash primarily relate to letters of credit and bank acceptance drafts. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. December 31, 2019 2018 Cash and cash equivalents $ 190.8 $ 370.6 Restricted cash - current (a) 32.9 32.9 Restricted cash - noncurrent (b) 0.1 0.1 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 223.8 $ 403.6 (a) Included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (b) Included within Other noncurrent assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Receivables	Receivables — Receivables are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts and primarily include trade receivables, notes receivable and miscellaneous receivables from suppliers. No single client comprised more than 10% of our consolidated net sales in 2019, 2018 or 2017. Specific client provisions are made when a review of significant outstanding amounts, utilizing information about client creditworthiness and current economic trends, indicates that collection is doubtful. In addition, provisions are made at differing rates, based upon the age of the receivable and our historical collection experience. Transactions affecting the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Balance, beginning of year $ 25.9 $ 32.4 $ 35.9 Provisions charged to expense 7.4 13.3 3.2 Write-offs and other (12.8 ) (19.8 ) (6.7 ) Balance, end of year $ 20.5 $ 25.9 $ 32.4
Inventories	Inventories —Inventories include material, labor and factory overhead and are stated at the lower of cost or market and net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials and finished goods. Provisions for excess and obsolete inventories are made at differing rates, utilizing historical data and current economic trends, based upon the age and type of the inventory. Specific excess and obsolescence provisions are also made when a review of specific balances indicates that the inventories will not be utilized in production or sold. The cost of 37.9% and 32.2% of the inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, has been determined using the Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) method. This method is intended to reflect the effect of inventory replacement costs within results of operations; accordingly, charges to cost of sales generally reflect recent costs of material, labor and factory overhead. We use an external-index method of valuing LIFO inventories. The remaining inventories, primarily related to certain acquired and international operations, are valued using the First-In, First-Out or specific identification methods. The components of inventories, net of excess and obsolescence reserves for raw materials and finished goods, at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: 2019 2018 Raw materials and manufacturing supplies $ 139.4 $ 153.1 Work in process 64.6 75.1 Finished goods 116.4 120.1 LIFO reserve (18.6 ) (18.6 ) Total $ 301.8 $ 329.7
Long-Lived Assets	Long-Lived Assets —We assess potential impairments to our long-lived assets if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impaired asset is written down to its estimated fair value based upon the most recent information available. Estimated fair market value is generally measured by discounting estimated future cash flows. Long-lived assets, other than goodwill and other intangible assets, which are held for sale, are recorded at the lower of the carrying value or the fair market value less the estimated cost to sell.
Property, Plant and Equipment	Property, Plant and Equipment —Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Useful lives range from 15 to 40 years for buildings, the lesser of 7 years or the lease term for leasehold improvements and from 3 to 15 years for machinery and equipment. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls that extend the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized. When properties are retired or disposed, the costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated and the resulting profit or loss is recognized in the results of operations. The components of property, plant and equipment at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: 2019 2018 Land $ 47.8 $ 51.0 Buildings 379.9 389.5 Machinery and equipment 1,704.7 1,797.1 2,132.4 2,237.6 Accumulated depreciation (1,632.4 ) (1,706.3 ) Total $ 500.0 $ 531.3 During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, depreciation expense was $115.8 million, $126.5 million, and $139.8 million, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 2017, we entered into an agreement to sell a printing facility in Shenzhen, China and transfer the related land use rights. As of December 31, 2019, we have received non-refundable deposits in accordance with the terms of the agreement of approximately $98.2 million which is recorded in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2019, the carrying cost of the building and land use rights is recorded in Other noncurrent assets and is not material.
Goodwill	Goodwill —Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually as of October 31 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. For certain reporting units, we may perform a qualitative, rather than quantitative, assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. In performing this qualitative analysis, we consider various factors, including the excess of prior year estimates of fair value compared to carrying value, the effect of market or industry changes and the reporting units’ actual results compared to projected results. Based on this qualitative analysis, if we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value, no further impairment testing is performed. For the remaining reporting units, we compare each reporting unit’s fair value, estimated based on comparable company market valuations and expected future discounted cash flows to be generated by the reporting unit, to its carrying value. See Note 4, Restructuring, Impairment and Other Charges Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Amortization	Amortization —Certain costs to acquire and develop internal-use computer software are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, up to a maximum of five years. Amortization expense, primarily related to internally-developed software and excluding amortization expense related to other intangible assets, was $29.4 million, $27.4 million and $23.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Deferred debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the related debt. Other intangible assets are recognized separately from goodwill and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. See Note 5, , for further discussion of other intangible assets and the related amortization expense.
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments —We use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to foreign exchange fluctuations in the ordinary course of business and to hedge the interest rate exposure on certain floating-rate debt. All derivatives are recorded as other current or noncurrent assets or other current or noncurrent liabilities on the balance sheet at their respective fair values with unrealized gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable income taxes, or in the results of operations, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in the results of operations. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge at inception, or fail to meet the criteria thereafter, are recognized currently in the results of operations. At inception of a hedge transaction, we formally document the hedge relationship and the risk management objective for undertaking the hedge. In addition, we assess, both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of the hedged item and whether the derivative is expected to continue to be highly effective. The impact of any ineffectiveness is recognized currently in the results of operations. Our foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are subject to master netting agreements that allow us to settle positive and negative positions with the respective counterparties. Derivatives
Share-Based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation —We recognize share-based compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. We recognize compensation expense for share-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value. See Note 15, , for further discussion.
Preferred Stock	Preferred Stock —We have two million shares of $1.00 par value preferred stock authorized for issuance. The Board of Directors may divide the preferred stock into one or more series and fix the redemption, dividend, voting, conversion, sinking fund, liquidation and other rights. We have no present plans to issue any preferred stock. We have reserved 0.2 million preferred stock shares for issuance under the Stockholder Rights Plan discussed in Note 16.
Pension and OPEB Plans	Pension and OPEB Plans —We record annual income and expense amounts relating to our pension and OPEB plans based on calculations which include various actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases, turnover rates and healthcare cost trend rates. We review our actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is deemed appropriate to do so. The effect of modifications on the value of plan obligations and assets is recognized immediately within other comprehensive income (loss) and amortized into operating earnings over future periods. We believe that the assumptions utilized in recording our obligations under our plans are reasonable based on our experience, market conditions and input from our actuaries and investment advisors. See Note 9 , for additional information.
Taxes on Income	Taxes on Income —Deferred taxes are provided using an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in our opinion, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. We recognize deferred tax liabilities related to taxes on certain foreign earnings that were not considered to be permanently reinvested. No deferred tax liabilities were recognized for foreign earnings that were considered to be permanently reinvested. We regularly evaluate whether foreign earnings are expected to be permanently reinvested. This evaluation requires judgment about our future operating and liquidity needs. Changes in economic and business conditions, foreign or U.S. tax laws, or our financial situation could result in changes to these judgments and the need to record additional tax liabilities. We are regularly audited by foreign and domestic tax authorities. These audits occasionally result in proposed assessments where the ultimate resolution might result in us owing additional taxes, including in some cases, penalties and interest. We recognize a tax position in our financial statements when it is more likely than not ( i.e., Income Taxes
Revenue Recognition	On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under Topic 605. All revenue recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is considered to be revenue from contracts with clients. We recorded a net increase to opening retained earnings of $12.9 million as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606, with the impact primarily related to the timing of revenue recognition for certain inventory that has been billed but not yet shipped. Disaggregation of Revenue The following table presents net sales disaggregated by products and services: 2019 2018 2017 Products Commercial print $ 1,694.5 $ 1,935.6 $ 2,114.0 Direct marketing 676.7 581.6 545.7 Packaging 668.5 672.0 562.1 Statements 545.4 584.2 556.4 Labels 497.4 481.4 470.4 Digital print and fulfillment 492.1 474.4 478.0 Supply chain management 298.7 321.0 314.9 Forms 244.3 267.5 284.5 Total products net sales $ 5,117.6 $ 5,317.7 $ 5,326.0 Services Logistics $ 814.6 $ 1,109.3 $ 1,238.2 Business process outsourcing 232.3 248.1 222.2 Digital and creative solutions 111.7 125.1 153.2 Total services net sales $ 1,158.6 $ 1,482.5 $ 1,613.6 Total net sales $ 6,276.2 $ 6,800.2 $ 6,939.6 Products Our products revenue is primarily recognized at a point in time. We generally recognize revenue for products upon the transfer of control of the products to the client which typically occurs upon transfer of title and risk of ownership, which is generally upon shipment to the client. For certain products, w e are able to recognize revenue for completed inventory billed but not yet shipped at the client’s direction. The following is a description of our products: Commercial Print We generate revenue by providing various commercial printing products and offer a full range of branded materials including manuals, publications, brochures, business cards, flyers, post cards, posters and promotional items. Direct Marketing We generate revenue by providing audience segmentation, creative development, program testing, print production, postal optimization and performance analytics for large-scale personalized direct mail programs Packaging We generate revenue by providing packaging solutions, ranging from rigid boxes to in-box print materials, Statements We generate revenue by creating critical business communications, including customer billings, financial statements, healthcare communications and insurance documents. Our capabilities include design and composition, variable imaging, email, archival and digital mail interaction, as well as our innovative RRDigital solution set. Labels We generate revenue by producing custom labels for clients across multiple industries including warehouse and distribution, retail, pharmaceutical, manufacturing and consumer packaging. We offer distribution and shipping labels, healthcare and durable goods labels, promotional labels and consumer product goods packaging labels. Digital Print and Fulfillment We generate revenue by providing in-store marketing materials, including signage and point-of-purchase materials, as well as custom marketing kits that require multiple types of marketing collateral. Under the trade name Motif TM Supply Chain Management We generate revenue by providing workflow design to assembly, configuration, kitting and fulfillment for clients in consumer electronics, telecommunications, life sciences, cosmetics, education and industrial industries. Forms We generate revenue by producing a variety of forms including invoices, order forms and business forms that support both the private and public sectors for clients in financial, government, retail, healthcare and business services industries. Services Our services revenue is recognized both at a point in time and over time. Our logistics revenue is primarily recognized over time as the performance obligation is completed Due to the short transit period of logistics performance obligations, the timing of revenue recognition does not require significant judgment. Logistics We generate revenue by providing specialized transportation and distribution services using our third party logistics solutions. These services are comprised of freight services, including truckload, less-than-truckload, intermodal and international freight forwarding; international mail and parcel distribution; and courier services including same day and next day delivery. Business Process Outsourcing We generate revenue by providing outsourcing services including creative services, research and analytics, financial management and other services for legal providers, insurance, telecommunications, utilities, retail and financial services companies. Digital and Creative Solutions We generate revenue by creating and managing content for delivery across multiple marketing communications channels including print and digital advertising, direct marketing and mail, packaging, sales collateral, in-store marketing and social media Variable Consideration Certain clients may receive volume-based rebates or early payment discounts, which are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be earned by our clients and reduce revenue accordingly. We do not expect significant changes to estimates of variable consideration. Given the nature of our products and the history of returns, product returns are not significant. Contract Balances The following table provides information about contract assets and liabilities from contracts with clients: Contract Assets Contract Liabilities Short-Term Short-Term Long-Term Balance at January 1, 2019 $ 2.7 $ 16.5 $ 0.6 Balance at December 31, 2019 2.0 18.9 0.2 Contract liabilities primarily relate to client advances received prior to completion of performance obligations. Reductions in contract liabilities are a result of our completion of performance obligations. Revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2019 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $14.8 million. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we reclassified $2.7 million of contract assets included at the beginning of the period to receivables as a result of the completion of the performance obligation and the right to the consideration becoming unconditional. Practical Expedients and Exemptions As part of the adoption of Topic 606, we have elected practical expedients and exemptions allowable under the guidance. We account for shipping and handling activities performed after the control of a good has been transferred to the client as a fulfillment cost. We accrue for the costs of shipping and handling activities if revenue is recognized before contractually agreed shipping and handling activities occur. We apply Topic 606 to a portfolio of contracts (or performance obligations) with similar characteristics as we reasonably expect that the effects on the financial statements of applying this guidance to the portfolio would not differ significantly from applying this guidance to the individual contracts (or performance obligations) within that portfolio. When the output method for measure of progress is determined appropriate, we recognize revenue in the amount for which we have the right to invoice for revenue that is recognized over time and for which we can demonstrate that the invoiced amount corresponds directly with the value to the client for the performance completed to date. We generally expense sales commissions and other costs to obtain a contract when incurred, because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within Selling, general and administrative expenses. We exclude sales taxes and other similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less
