Print file technology has come a long way in the last few decades. Despite continuing evolution, there is still legacy data and content used to produce critical customer communications every day. You may encounter legacy files in commercial and direct mail print work in addition to normal transaction print. This legacy content, the PostScript® (PS), PCL, AFP, IPDS, VIPP file types, is sometimes hard to transition due to the systems that generate them and their essential roles in how communications are created and distributed for production and delivery.
In this SolimarSecrets ROI Boost video series, Drew Sprague, President of Solimar Systems and Pat McGrew, Managing Director of McGrewGroup, discuss legacy print file content and how platforms like Chemistry™ from Solimar can provide flexible and powerful capabilities that deliver Return on Investment (ROI). Chemistry makes it possible to efficiently manage and leverage content in organisations’ print and electronic delivery (e-delivery) production environment. One of the essential messages is the power of transitioning all work to PDF and Drew explains why this is so important as the print and digital delivery industry continues to evolve.
Implementing transform technology to take legacy files like PostScript (PS) to more modern and regulated formats like PDF is something Solimar has been helping customers do for over 30 years. Moving to a PDF-centric workflow reduces costs of production, optimises the workflows producing final products, helps transition content to electronic (e-delivery) channels, and eases the impacts of mergers and acquisitions.
Chemistry also helps organsations where legacy content expertise is waning, making it possible to take control of the work you accept from customers without limitations. It brings workflow automation and reliable transformation as the building blocks of an efficient PDF workflow.
