Asset management comes to labels printroom
An updated Backstage that features a new 'products' tool that brings basic asset management to the print production room, will be on show by Eskoartwork during Labelexpo Americas.
Under the agreement, Esko-Graphics has also licensed several Harlequin in-RIP options.
These include TrapproT trapping, Harlequin Dispersed Screening (HDST), plus ProofreadyT and ColorproT plug-in utilities that provide colour control for proofing and printing applications.
"Our products and our customers will experience impressive production flexibility and performance gains as a result of our implementation of the latest release of the Harlequin RIP.
Its ability to process PDF 1.4 natively, together with impressive new trapping, colour management and proofing were the main reasons we chose it," explained Kresten Tang Andersen, workflow product manager at Esko-Graphics.
"Global Graphics has been an important and strategic development partner for us since 1988.
We would not be able to develop the market-leading products we supply without the technology and support of our OEM partners," added Andersen.
Esko-Graphics said it depends upon Global Graphics to provide it with a core RIP and other production components to enable it to integrate them into its own technologies.
Jim Freidah, Global Graphics Software's chief operating officer, said: "The partnership between Global Graphics and Esko-Graphics has been a very strong one for the past 15 years.
It is a highly innovative company.".
