Naveen Goel, vice president of products and general manager of the Adobe print business, said: “Adobe is excited to bring the powerful innovations in version 7 of the PDF Print Engine to our solution partners, and the entire print industry.
“Printers need to process more jobs in the same amount of time. Commercial printers, packaging converters, textile/garment printers, and product manufacturers will realise the time-saving and cost-saving benefits of the Adobe Print Services platform, combined with the new features in Print Engine 7. Prepress steps can be eliminated through in-RIP integration with PDF Print Engine 7 or automated with Adobe Print Services. These Adobe innovations will sharpen a printer’s competitive edge and help to expand the business horizon by capitalizing on opportunities in new industry segments.”
