Foregoing Souvenir tickets; what options are there?

How do other organizations "print" season tickets? 

Do you print them all at once?  What if there are payment plans in place and not all tickets are paid for yet?

Options for "global barcode" ticket?  Composite ticket does not work for us since we allow exchanges (and what if someone wants to give a ticket away and it is part of the composite ticket?).

    Hi Denise

    We basically do two main sets of print runs.of full sets of subs tickets.

    (We've not made any attempt to go the Global or Composite ticket route - we have lots of exchanges, and probably lots of ticket-swapping, so it's never appealed - looks like too much manual handling for the benefit to be realised.)

    We only have one installment plan (50% on order, 50% at a specific date - usually 1 December), so we do a bulk print and mailout of fully-paid subs at the end of the main subs period (October, basically), then a second bulk print after the installment date. It's a fairly major effort, but then it's out of the way, and box office can concentrate on selling single tix.
