Production Software Is Ready For Intel-Based Apple
Dalim Software will have established compatibility for the new Intel-processor based Apple Macintosh systems throughout the Dalim Software production automation product line by the end of the year.
Carol Werle, the chief executive officer of Dalim Software, said: "The work carried out by the Ghent PDF Workgroup to standardise and simplify PDF production and delivery is very important.
We are committed to the development of standards and GWG compliance is another significant milestone for the company." The GWG dictates a uniform standard of excellence in the production and pre-flighting of PDF files for a variety of specialist applications.
The specifications are sets of guidelines based on, and compliant with, ISO PDF/X standards and enhanced with additional guidelines to support different market segments, different output processes or different workflows.
The workflows include those for magazine advertising, newspaper advertising, commercial sheet offset, web offset and, in the near future, packaging, silkscreen, large format digital and gravure printing.
Enhancing the existing (PDF/X) standards with practical, vertical market specifications and best practices allows for more secure and productive digital workflows.
The specifications are a compilation of best practices achieved in the publishing industry.
