![]() The main print run will then usually need all the processing steps turned off, so just the live graphics are shown and there’s no risk of cut lines being visible on the final print. The benefit to converters is that they can automate common digital press workflows, such as starting a print run with a few iterations of just the cut and fold lines for checking registration with dies and other finishing equipment. Prior to the formulation of this ISO standard designers could use ad hoc naming conventions and methods to describe a processing step which increased the risk of error and of wasting material.” “You can say to Harlequin 12.1 ‘just give me the design content in the PDF with no processing steps’,” says Martin Bailey, CTO at Global Graphics Software, “or ‘just give me structural processing steps and nothing else’, without needing to know what name the designer assigned to each item. It provides an unambiguous way of marking the technical content that’s required in the finishing step of the production workflow but not intended to be printed. ![]() PDF Processing Steps (ISO 19593‐1) is a new industry standard designed for labels and packaging workflows, that specifies a standard way of encoding processing steps such as die and fold lines or dimensions into a PDF file. Harlequin Version 12.1 introduces additional features for labels and packaging workflows, notably support for the new ISO standard for processing technical marks, and expanded support for systems requiring multiple RIP instances to handle high data throughput requirements. ![]() Cambridge, UK, : The latest update to the Harlequin RIP®, Version 12.1, the print engine that drives the industry’s highest performing digital presses, is announced today by developers Global Graphics Software. ![]()
