Normalizer
The complexity of digital file formats is a major source of inefficiency for printers, service providers and print buyers. Both digital presses and CTP systems use a confusing array of PostScript and PDF RIPs, which do not always handle every format. Some systems prefer one file format over another, and older, outdated RIPs can create havoc for those who simply want their job printed! For all of these issues, ORIS Normalizer is the answer. Whether used in connection with ORIS Press Matcher or ORIS Ink Saver, or as a standalone process, Normalizer automates the file conversion process, saving on operational costs and greatly reducing output errors and related billing disputes. |

ORIS Normalizer uses network-shared hotfolders to process digital files, in all major prepress formats. Color management may be applied, using ORIS Press Matcher or ORIS Ink Saver, and new files are generated in the desired format and automatically sent to the desired printing facility. Both composite and separated file output is supported. Normalizer can create industry-standard formats, such as DCS, PDF/X and TIFF/IT, as well as proprietary Scitex formats. Older RIPs are also supported, with ORIS’ ability to create flat PostScript and PDF. Automatic preflight is included, as well as automatic FTP, and easy integration with third-party file transfer and job ticketing systems. |
