Visual Print Workflow |
|
|
The power of RasterPlus has never been easier to use. With the new
3-step visual print workflow, incoming files are placed in a Hold
area where they can be previewed and released.
Once
approved, files go to a Print engine that quickly renders files to
the device resolution. After printing, all files are collected in an
Archive for future reprints.
Each step is
managed independently, so you can now preview and print files at the
same time! |
 |
|
PostScript Level 3 Engine |
| RasterPlus
raises performance printing to a new level: PostScript 3. With the
new world class PostScript 3 engine, RasterPlus delivers rich new
graphics capabilities that fulfill the creative expression
requirements of imaging professionals. Print quality is dramatically
improved with smooth shading technology that renders gradient blends
at the targeted device resolution. Better yet, it processes files up
to 3 times faster than before! |
|
Drag-N-Drop Printing |
| You can
drag-n-drop files or whole folders to RasterPlus without first
loading them into an application to print, saving valuable time.
RasterPlus v3.0 now directly prints over 20 file formats including
new support for PostScript 3, PDF, EXIF, and multi-page GIF along
with PostScript Level 2, EPS, TIFF, JPEG, BMP, PCX, TARGA, SUN
Raster, MAC PICT, CALS, GEM Image, Portable Network Graphics, Kodak
Photo CD, Kodak FlashPix, MacPaint, Microsoft Paint, and native
Photoshop PSD. |

Native PDF Processing |
| RasterPlus
v3.0 adds native PDF processing to its extensive file format list.
Now your clients can preview in Adobe Acrobat and send you the same
file for a consistent print workflow. Simply drop the PDF file to
the queue and it will automatically print. What could be easier? (return) |
|
New Web-Ready Print Logs |
| Keeping
track of what you print is now easier than ever with the new
web-ready (HTML) print log in RasterPlus. Each print is recorded
with the time and owner name so you can easily account for your
print jobs. |
|
|
Better yet, the print log can be accessed and printed within
RasterPlus or from any web browser on the network! |
|
Improved Enterprise Networking |
|
|
RasterPlus is a
true network print server because its printers can be published on
the network to any Macintosh or Windows client. Now each print queue
can be published independently, so clients can have their own queue
with properties tailored to meet their needs. Simply File-Print from
your favorite client application and RasterPlus will do the rest!

Tab-View Print Queues |
 |
|
Because RasterPlus Windows Edition is a true multi-task print
application, several print queues can be used at once. Each print
queue can be assigned different properties and even different
printers, all operating at the same time. To easily manage each
print queue, an intuitive Tab View is used so you can quickly switch
from one to another. (return) |
|
New Color Management |
|
NEW Color Management with TrueGraphx RasterPlus puts you in control
of your color printing with the all new TrueGraphx color management
system. By integrating TrueGraphx as part of the internal rendering
pipeline, all printers can now be color managed. Simple adjustments
to hue, contrast, and GCR/UCR are made on a color curve and applied
to any print file. Advanced ICC color transformations can also be
made by selecting the desired RGB, CMYK, Printer, Preview and
Prepress ICC profiles. Never before have you had so much control
over how your colors print. (return) |

Sony
realistic printers so you can get the most out of every piece of
paper.
With
dozens of standard templates to pick from, the perfect package
print is just a click away. You’ll save money, reduce waste and
increase production by automatically printing multiple images at
the same time.

before you quit. The next time you start RasterPlus, all program
settings, including print queues and window sizes, are restored to
the way you left them. (return) |
|
New Integrated Font Management |
|
RasterPlus v3.0 introduces a manager for adding PostScript Type 1
fonts needed in processing EPS or Postscript files that do not
include fonts. Also when directly File-Printing to RasterPlus, all
the necessary fonts are automatically included before printing.
Either way, you can finally say goodbye to font substitution errors.
