Impose programs for digital and offset printing

German software producer OneVision has developed two solutions for PDF file imposition: the PlugAutoImposein and Speedflow Impose programmes are suitable for digital and offset printing with rollers and sheets. The substantial difference between the two software solutions is found in the degree of automation: the PlugAutoImposein connection to the Asura “data cleansing tool” and the Workspace workflow management software processes and optimises the PDFs. Naturally this process makes use of the Workspace job ticket function.

The page format for an imposition template for PlugAutoImposein is variable to a certain extent, and can be automatically transferred to a PDF document awaiting processing. If the document page format goes beyond the defined value, it can be adjusted or transferred to a better-suited imposition template. This way, fewer templates are necessary to correctly process a multitude of different page formats. In addition to the many possible barcode options (e.g. DataMatrix, QR), the “Cut and Stack” option offers users of digital printing in particular added flexibility, allowing version “1” to be produced cheaply. As a new highlight PlugAutoImposein includes the feature “template editor”. The module makes it possible to put together individual templates according to customer needs and to impose them automatically afterwards. The 64Bit architecture supports output files of over 2 GB. In all, PlugAutoImposein offers over 1,000 different imposition and printing combinations for the professional page and sheet assembly of books, magazines and job printing.

For printers and publishers not yet working with the Asura PDF optimisation software or the Workspace workflow management system, imposition tasks can still be processed quickly and easily. The Speedflow Impose programme is compatible with all current workflow software options, and can be integrated into an existing workflow.
