11/07/2001
ImageSmart Document Mastering 2.0 enables high-speed, direct
black-and-white and color printing
Heidelberg is now making its latest version of ImageSmart software available with both the Digimaster 9110 Network Imaging System and the NexPress 2100 digital color production press - reinforcing its commitment to enhance customers' workflows in both digital color and digital black-and white printing.
ImageSmart Document Mastering 2.0 software is a complete workflow package that is easy to use, featuring simple "point-and-click" and "drag-and-drop" functionality with a simple user interface for intuitive navigation.
Employing the open-architecture, PDF-based software, users of both the Digimaster 9110 and NexPress 2100 systems can easily manage their documents in black-and-white jobs, color jobs, and combined jobs with color covers and inserts with black-and-white body pages. ImageSmart software and Heidelberg's digital color and digital black-and-white print systems combine to help customers maximize every part of the production process.
"ImageSmart Document Mastering 2.0 software gives NexPress 2100 and Digimaster 9110 customers a total PDF-based workflow package that helps them increase productivity and profitability," said Len Christopher, director of worldwide market planning for NexPress Solutions LLC's Black and White Business, which markets products manufactured by Heidelberg's Digital Print Solution Center. "Customers can now save time and improve their workflow by managing jobs on both machines from a single location."
The software's centerpiece is the new SmartBoard software plug-in developed by Heidelberg, which enables a range of new functions to be completed within the ImageSmart Document Mastering software application. It provides full support of job tickets and enables users to easily change paper color or sizes within a document, update paper catalogs, specify finishing options such as stitching and bookletmaking, and import documents directly from the ImageSmart Document Library, which provides a secure storage area for electronic documents.
ImageSmart Document Mastering 2.0 is part of Heidelberg's ImageSmart Workflow Suite, a product portfolio built on a scalable, truly open architecture and designed to improve digital printing workflow. ImageSmart software helps printers maximize their capabilities and provides powerful job submission and document mastering functions. ImageSmart Document Mastering 2.0 utilizes the industry-standard Adobe Acrobat 5.0 software.
