                          -------------


I, Harve Cathey, certify that:

1. I  have  reviewed this report on Form 10-Q of  Ennis  Business
   Forms, Inc.;

2. Based  on  my  knowledge, this report  does  not  contain  any
   untrue  statement  of  a material fact  or  omit  to  state  a
   material fact necessary to make the statements made, in  light
   of  the  circumstances under which such statements were  made,
   not  misleading  with respect to the period  covered  by  this
   report;

3. Based  on  my knowledge, the financial statements,  and  other
   financial information included in this report, fairly  present
   in  all material respects the financial condition, results  of
   operations  and cash flows of the registrant as of,  and  for,
   the periods presented in this report;

4. The   registrant's  other  certifying  officer   and   I   are
   responsible   for  establishing  and  maintaining   disclosure
   controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-
   15(e) and 15d-15(e)), for the registrant and have:

       (a)  Designed such disclosure controls and procedures,  or
       caused  such  disclosure controls  and  procedures  to  be
       designed  under our supervision, to ensure  that  material
       information  relating  to  the registrant,  including  its
       consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us  by  others
       within  those entities, particularly during the period  in
       which this report is being prepared;

       (b)   Evaluated  the  effectiveness  of  the  registrant's
       disclosure controls and procedures and presented  in  this
       report  our  conclusions about the  effectiveness  of  the
       disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end  of  the
       period  covered  by this report based on such  evaluation;
       and

       (c)   Disclosed   in  this  report  any  change   in   the
       registrant's  internal  control over  financial  reporting
       that  occurred during the registrant's most recent  fiscal
       quarter  (the  registrant's fourth fiscal quarter  in  the
       case  of  an annual report) that has materially  affected,
       or   is  reasonably  likely  to  materially  affect,   the
       registrant's  internal control over  financial  reporting;
       and

5. The   registrant's  other  certifying  officer  and   I   have
   disclosed,  based  on our most recent evaluation  of  internal
   control   over   financial  reporting,  to  the   registrant's
   auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board  of
   directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

       (a)  All  significant deficiencies and material weaknesses
       in  the  design  or  operation of  internal  control  over
       financial   reporting  which  are  reasonably  likely   to
       adversely  affect  the  registrant's  ability  to  record,
       process, summarize and report financial information; and

       (b)  Any  fraud,  whether or not material,  that  involves
       management or other employees who have a significant  role
       in   the  registrant's  internal  control  over  financial
       reporting.
