The new 2012 version includes the capability to highlight version changes to the same page, the optimisation of plate sorting, and a tool to enable customers to upload files directly into their print edition.

Users can define and control the plate sorting device, managing plate production priorities, and can be interfaced with press control systems to automate these functions.

An upload portal provides a tool customers can use to upload files directly into the planned edition. The new version also provides image analysis, with changes between versions of the same page highlighted, potential overprint problems identified, and last-minute changes quickly verified prior to plate making.

Manager of New ProImage, Europe Izzet Edige says the workflow scales from small local publications to the very largest: “The ability for our customers to upgrade to this new version ensures that they remain at the leading edge of production efficiency,” he says.
