Its easy-to-use digital interface supports Variable Data Embossing (VDE) for personalized applications, such as greeting cards, business cards, invitations, and stationary applications as well as photo albums and other W2P applications. The Scodix1200 is ideal for short, medium and long runs, it stores all image data digitally from a PC, works with both PDF and Tiff files in a variety of formats including B2 and A3 (up to 50×70 cm/19×27 inch) and accepts a wide selection of substrates (135-500 gr/m2).
