Digest Group Publications (DGP) was started in 1985 by Joe Fugate, Gary L. Thomas, Nancy Parker and others. DGP was one of the many Traveller licensees, producing material under license from Game Designers Workshop. During this initial period DGP published three books and 10 issues of the Traveller Digest.

In 1986, GDW used the growing writing talents of DGP, with Joe Fugate as lead developer to produce MegaTraveller. In addition to writing and editing books for GDW, DGP continued to produce additional material for the MegaTraveller game under their own company.

By 1994 DGP ceased publishing materials for Traveller. The company's assets were purchased by Roger Sanger, who hold the intellectual property rights to all the DGP produced materials.
