axaio updates MadeToPrint for InDesign CS4 and launches MadeToPrint Server

Tuesday 07. April 2009 - axaio software, developer of solutions for PDF creation, printing and content correction workflows for Adobe InDesign and QuarkXpress environments, has updated its flagship product, MadeToPrint, to InDesign CS4.

Simultaneously it has launched MadeToPrint Server, an InDesign Server based solution that offers 24/7 high volume PDF creation and advanced workflow automation from InDesign files.
 
MadeToPrint: better, faster and more consistent output from InDesign
MadeToPrint is now available for  InDesign CS4. MadeToPrint is a plug-in for InDesign and Xpress, for the creation of reliable output. It allows addressing multiple output devices simultaneously, executing various print jobs in one go, token-based file naming and flexible layer output which all go beyond both InDesign CS4 and Xpress’ built-in output functionality. MadeToPrint Auto allows hotfolder based processing, enabling completely unattended output .
 
MadeToPrint + InDesign Server = MadeToPrint Server
With the integration of Adobe InDesign Server and MadeToPrint, axaio software launches a server based solution that takes automatic printing and exporting to an unmatched productivity level in a lights=out processing environment.

MadeToPrint Server  combines the performance and stability of an InDesign Server with the clever output options of MadeToPrint, offering a secure, standard solution that no longer requires a desktop version of InDesign CS3 or CS4 to organize output processes.  MadeToPrint Server comes with its own interface for the set-up of jobs directly on the InDesign Server, and includes options for remote operation — allowing the processes to run invisibly in the background.

MadeToPrint Server can be fully integrated with vjoon K4 and Woodwing Smart Connection Enterprise for fully automated output directly from the editorial system.

“MadeToPrint Server delivers massive performance and is highly flexible,” says Achim Kuhlmann, Product Manager of axaio software, “while InDesign Server is a powerful solution; complex functions, such as controlling output processes, need individual programming, and it does not have a graphic interface. With MadeToPrint Server we wanted to give an answer to this, using all output functions that our solutions offer.
“I think it is a perfect tool for all companies that want to use InDesign for automated output”.
