ELECTRONIC PRE-PRESS

Creo Brisque Performace Dual Impose Station, 219GB RAM with the following software:

PDF2GO: creates pdf files from ripped and trapped files. CT/LW (including NewCT and NewLW file formats) are compressed and wrapped in a PDF shell. This adds the predictability, edit ability, and robustness of CT/LW to the flexibility and portability of PDF.
Creo Inkpro: creates an ink management file from the fully imposed imaging data. This file enables automatic ink key settings on the press, streamlining the press make-ready operation and minimizing potential areas of error.
Brisque Tiff/It: With the TIFF/IT-P1 translation application, all Brisque workflow systems can receive and handle files in the ISO-certified TIFF/IT-P1 format, such as advertisements from advertising agencies or reproduction houses. The Brisque can then translate completed jobs into TIFF/IT-P1 for export to customers who need that format for continued production.
Brisque Export PS: Export PS software translates post-RIP files into PostScript® format, for processing on any PostScript compatible device. True raster output assures 100% fidelity with the original file, for perfect predictability of the print.
Staccato Screening: Staccato® screening produces high-fidelity, artifact-free images that exhibit fine detail, without halftone rosettes, screening moiré, gray level limitations or abrupt jumps in tone-with no impact on RIPing or rendering time. Staccato screening also improves color and halftone stability on press, making it a perfect complement to consistent "by-the-numbers" printing.
