Digital printing

You have invested in a digital press!

To make your digital press as profitable as possible, you will need to process, prepare and print a lot of short run jobs. Your prepress team will spend a lot of time manipulating, cleaning, and making files consistent before they are ready to be printed. Your operators may have to re-enter data multiple times.

Prepress

Jobs are getting shorter and customers are demanding faster turnarounds. A volatile combination but dedicated prepress carries the load. A stand-alone editor, a suite of Illustrator plug-ins or a completely automated workflow solution, Esko has you covered.
