Automated Prepress Workflow Increases Efficiency

One of the biggest fears of a prepress department is the process of entering correct data to packaging. This is particularly vital with pharmaceuticals and food products that have dosage and ingredient copy that meets federal requirements. Incorrect copy will surely result in re-dos. Certain workflow systems can pull copy directly from client databases. The benefit is evident. Copy does not have to be retyped into a design, and the prepress department is assured that copy is the responsibility of the brand owner. These systems can also be dynamic. If copy is changed there is no worry, because the system accesses the copy every time it outputs a new file.
