Some advantages of JDF-based digital processes over RIP


1. Management function, job plan, job ticket, CIP3/CIP4

There is basically no job management relative to RIP operations. In terms of operation plan, the digital process can implement job planning, layout planning, real-time monitoring, process database and printing enterprise management system (MIS or ERP) information sharing, and production with the entire printing company. Management convergence. At the same time, CIP3/CIP4 files are used to integrate prepress, print and postpress.


2. One RIP multiple output

The RIP connection device is a set of RIP corresponding to one output device, so that for the same work file, multiple RIPs are required in the output CTF/CTP, digital proofing, digital blue paper, etc., and it is difficult to ensure the identity of the results. In the process, it is explained only once, and outputted multiple times on different output devices to ensure the consistency of the results. This ensures that when the digital blue paper is inspected, the output of the film or CTP output after the digital proofing is accurate.


3. Preflight check

The preflight check is for some settings in the file that do not meet the print specifications. For example, the file contains images in RGB mode, low resolution images, extremely thin lines that cannot be printed, font problems, and automatic check.


4. Folding hands (big version)

Through the process of the folding software to complete the layout work, and can be flexible small page replacement and output the modification of the small page file before the moment.


5. Unified management of multiple devices

Compared with 1 set of RIP and 1 output device, a set of workflows can connect several output devices and can be managed uniformly.


6. File backup and storage

The process is generally equipped with a corresponding file backup system. Founder provides a complete backup and storage system, and performs a comprehensive backup of the standardized page file, the folding template, the work job ticket, and the reuse of the backup file. Need to import files, do not need to re-interpret, not only saves time but also guarantees a set of output before and after.


Unique advantages of the JDF process


The main functions represented on the basis of JDF process are: generate PDF normalization file, pre-checking, proofing, imposition, hanging net, output film or CTP printing plate, CIP4 ink control output, remote proofing, remote encrypted copying, data Inventory documents, job management tracking, data statistics processing, etc., integrated MIS, ERP system and other functions, organic integration of prepress and printing systems.


1. Support remote submission of jobs, remote proofing, remote copying output

Remote submission, remote proofing, and remote management can be easily and safely implemented when the relevant conditions of the enterprise are available. Powerful users can use their workflow to build their own network printing business platform, draw closer to their own customers, and closely maintain relationships with customers through technical means, and continue to maintain themselves through new technologies in the highly competitive environment of the printing industry. The lead.


2. The widest range of device compatibility

Most PDF processes are more flexible than RIP and are connected to prepress equipment such as CTFs, CTP and laser proofing, digital proofing equipment, and even digital printing equipment or print and postpress equipment. Therefore, the PDF process can incorporate our original equipment, and there is a wider choice of back-end equipment when the pre-press scale is expanded.


3. Process application solutions tailored to customers

Large and medium-sized commercial printing, packaging and printing enterprises with the CTP, large-format laser imagesetter, CIP3/CIP4 ink control system, ERP management system applications, the advantages of digital processes are very obvious.


For traditional output centers, it is now possible to retain RIP out of single-page film, traditional proofing, and hand-pressed prepress mode of operation. These companies may feel that RIP has met the current requirements, and RIP is relatively complex compared to the digital process. The operation is relatively simple. The PDF process preserves the simple operation of RIP. As mentioned above, the process is the extension and function of RIP. The work that RIP can do is better in the process. At the same time, it can also meet the needs of these enterprises to develop and expand other businesses. Since Changliu can connect and manage multiple different types of output devices, after purchasing the laser imagesetter, CTP does not need to purchase RIP or process. It is necessary to add authority in the existing process, and at the same time, the output center is involved in the CTP or printing field. The process has been equipped with folding software to meet the requirements. At the same time, in the digital fast printing industry, the process can be connected to a variety of digital printing equipment. Simply add permissions to an existing process. For output centers that already have multiple output devices, we have processes that can be effectively managed to load balance and improve efficiency.


Conclusion


The formation and progress of digital workflow in the printing industry will inevitably promote the further development of the printing industry in the digital environment, enhance its competitive strength, and play an important role in information exchange and sharing with other fields. The cost of the process, the process system can generally be designed and purchased on demand, and can be upgraded as needed in the future.RIP is a single sale and has little room for development.


At the same time, the developers of RIP are fully committed to the development and trading of the process, and the technological development of RIP is becoming more and more obvious. A savvy investor, would you buy a cheap but short product or would you still be able to get a return on this investment after three or five years?
