PHILADELPHIA (On Demand) – May 15, 2006 – Enfocus, the world leader in PDF quality management solutions for print production, today announces it is bringing its entire line of Certified PDF solutions, including recently unveiled PitStop Automate and PitStop Professional 7, to the On Demand Conference and Expo. Partners including Creo Print On-Demand Solutions Group and Ultimate Technographics will demonstrate combined solutions. The Conference is being held at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, PA from May 16-18, 2006. PDF Quality Control and Automation with No Human Intervention With almost ten years in the marketplace and over 100,000 users worldwide, Enfocus is reaching deeper into the growing digital and quick print segments with increasingly advanced PDF applications. These solutions were designed for novices through expert production personnel, for the fastest turnaround as well as highest quality commercial work. The company’s Executive Vice President, Patrick Van Dam, says that Enfocus’ strong development path over the years has allowed the company to build increasing intelligence into its PDF solutions, in order to relieve graphic arts and communications professionals of time-consuming processes that can be automated without quality compromise. “The features that made our technology so popular with conventional graphic arts professionals are now part and parcel of our more advanced, and automated, solutions. As a result, everyone from in-house marketing personnel through to designers and printers can be assured that their PDF files will stay ‘on course’ from creation through output,” says Van Dam. All Enfocus Products Use Certified PDF Technology for Quality Control All Enfocus products are built on the company’s Certified PDF technology, which insures reliable file exchange from creation through processing, review, approval, and output. Files that are “Certified PDF” are guaranteed to conform to print and output specifications and therefore, print properly the first time. Easy Production Automation for Novices through Experienced Personnel PitStop Automate (New) Enfocus will showcase its major product releases including new PitStop Automate, an intelligent solution allowing professionals with any level of production knowledge to easily control movement, and processing, of jobs through departments and on to output. Instant PDF File creators can work freely and create PDFs that are guaranteed to conform to job process and output specifications with Instant PDF. The specifications are easily defined by their prepress partner, ad agency, printer, etc. PitStop Professional (New 7.0) Enfocus PitStop Professional’s PDF editing and industry standard-compliant preflight capabilities allow advanced quality checking and last minute correction. Global Change and Action List features allow automated modifications to entire documents. Enfocus Certified PDF technology embeds the quality status in the file for easy file exchange. PitStop Professional has proven to be a genuine job-saver for over 70,000 users. Instant Barcode (New) Enfocus Instant Barcode is an Adobe Illustrator plug-in that allows designers and file creators to easily generate, check and read barcodes – a rapidly increasing design component – within their familiar software design environments.
