IPEX 2002 -- Accent on the Positive

Creo and Printcafe introduced Synapse Link and Prepress Connector software, respectively, to link the former's prepress workflow with the latter's computer management/MIS solutions via JDF-based data transfers. Both products are open systems that will link to other third-party solutions, as well.

Agfa says its new ApogeeX PDF-based workflow solution features full JDF-compliancy to integrate MIS/IT operations into the workflow for automatic job-ticket generation and end-to-end process integration.
