Software With In-RIP Imposition For Digital Print
One Vision has introduced a new version of Speedflow Impose 2.2, its imposition software for commercial and digital print.
Enhancements have also been made to the page imposition functions of Speedflow Impose and Speedflow Auto Impose in Speedflow Cockpit, OneVision's product for pre-press process automation.
Onevision Software claimed that printers using the Speedflow product range can also benefit from the company's newest ink saving system.
The software is said to reduce ink consumption by replacing expensive CMY ink with less expensive black ink without affecting image quality, or appearance, whilst in some cases, the ink improves the print appearance of full-colour jobs.
Speedflow Check and Speedflow Edit include a new transparency flattening engine and additional JPEG compression options.
The software also supports XMP metadata and the draft version of the PDF/X-4 standard.
In addition, Speedflow Impose now includes automatic checks for marks and labels within the final set trimmed page size.
Appropriate marks and labels are tagged with a green icon and a grey icon alerts the user that further attention is needed.
Onevision Software added that for the first time Speedflow's fully-automated imposition functions can be used within Speedflow Cockpit, making it easier to fully control file imposition.
Siobhain Towell, Onevision's vice president of marketing, commented: "Our customers report numerous benefits from using our Speedflow printing and publishing software.
The software provides a high level of control and process automation, whilst offering various and appropriate levels of oversight in to numerous aspects of the production process.
Many of our customers have noted right from the start that our software saves time, reduces costs and helps ensure that deadlines are met because files print as expected.
We continue to listen to the input from our customers, and their feedback was instrumental in developing the latest enhancements to the Speedflow Suite.".
