Packaging Workflow Takes Wing

To migrate to a press-side CTP model, we have to ensure that the printer can receive a digital file that has as much integrity as a piece of film. That's the basis behind the Prinergy Powerpack system and the work we're doing with PDF. The environment we're developing enables the trade shop to remotely prepare a one-up PDF file that can be saved with trapping, color management, step-and-repeat geometry, etc.
