CIP4 Releases Specifications for Print eCommerce and Automation

Concurrently, CIP4 released a new series of ICS documents based on version 1.3 of the JDF Specifications. JDF product certification testing, managed by PIA/GATF, is based on JDF ICS documents and these guidelines define subsets of the JDF specification that graphic arts systems and software must implement to establish a minimum level of JDF support. Each ICS guideline is specific to a production step or connectivity between a system that is managing the print job and a system that is executing that process step.
