PDF Workflows

"For a high percentage of the black-and-white technical documents we produce for our corporate clients, PDF is the dominant workflow. It increased production times by more than 25 percent," DeHart reports. "Although our use of PDF on the color side of our business is lower, we anticipate PDF eventually maturing to be the dominant file format for that aspect of our business as well. PDF allows us to deal with a more efficient file size, reducing RIP time. We see this as an immeasurable benefit to our black-and-white work presently and, in the future, our color applications."
