Dear _______;

Pending the mailing of materials to you by the bank or broker holding your
shares of Anacomp, Inc., the enclosed proxy statement is sent to you at the
request of Lloyd Miller, a 17% shareholder of Anacomp, in connection with his
solicitation of proxies for the election of two nominees to Anacomp's board of
directors.

Additional information regarding Mr. Miller's nominees and solicitation is
contained in the proxy statement, which is enclosed and also will accompany the
BLUE proxy card. Mr. Miller's proxy statement has been filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission and will be mailed with the BLUE proxy card on or about
February 12, 2004.

As you are probably aware, the BLUE proxy card that you will use to vote for Mr.
Miller's nominees must come to you from the bank or broker holding your shares
of Anacomp.

PLEASE VOTE THE BLUE PROXY CARD WHEN YOU RECEIVE YOUR PROXY FROM YOUR BANK OR
BROKER. EVEN IF YOU HAVE VOTED THE COMPANY'S WHITE PROXY CARD, MR. MILLER URGES
YOU TO VOTE THE BLUE PROXY CARD. ONLY THE LATEST DATED PROXY WILL COUNT.

If you have any questions or need any assistance in voting your shares, please
call the Altman Group toll-free at (800) 249-7140.
