CIP3 Comes Home

Jointly announced in February by industry leaders Adobe, Agfa, Heidelberg and MAN Roland, the Job Definition Format (JDF) is a new electronic job ticket specification. It is being positioned as an open, scalable, Web-compatible job ticket standard that is built on the success of market proven standards like the CIP3 PPF and upward compatible to de facto standards like Adobe's PDF and Adobe's Portable Job Ticket Format (PJTF).
