Automated Workflow

Recently, CIP4 reported the results of its Interoperability Event held in Vancouver, Canada. Twenty-three companies participated, testing 35 products. In all, 115 pairs were tested, with 108 successful pairings.

This was a significant increase over the March 2004 Interoperability Event in Zofingen, Switzerland, where 31 companies tested 42 products, resulting in 76 successful pairings among the 93 pairs tested. The interoperability workshop format provides technical engineers of CIP4 member companies the opportunity to test and work with a wide range of JDF solutions representing the graphic arts supply chain.
