Understanding JTP name column descriptions

Normalizer

Normalizing

Converts PostScript files to PDF. Also does font handling and OPI replacement

Refine

ColorMatcher

Color Matching

Generates data for color matching proofs to final output. Converts input files into the final output color space. Handles spot color manipulation.

Refine and Output

Trapper

Trapping

Handles vector trapping in Prinergy Evo

Refine

Optimizer

Optimizing

Optimizes PDF files into digital masters suitable for print, checking conditions such as compression and image resampling

Refine

FileMover

File Moving

Moves the completed, refined PDF file from the intermediate processing location to the final output location specified in the process templates. This is so that the final output location for the PDF file can be a hot folder.

Refine

Thumbnail

Generating Thumbnails

Embeds thumbnail images in the refined PDF files or outputs JPEG thumbnail files with the refined PDF files

Refine

Copydot

Copydot

Resamples copydot data

Refine and Output

Marks

Updating Marks

Handles marks. Specifically, substitutes variable marks during output.

Output

CTMTransform

Applying Geometry

Performs geometric manipulations, such as offsets, rotations, and scaling

Output

Preps

Creating imposition plans

Automatically creates a populated JDF file and Marks file that you can then submit for output to a device

Output

PrinterEx (various resolutions)

Printing High Res.

Generates high-resolution (721 dpi and higher) raster data for the specified PDF files for page and imposition output. The PrinterEx JTP can output a file on disk. Your Prinergy Evo license dictates whether the PrinterEx JTP is capable of low- or high-resolution output to proof or plate.

Output

PrinterEx (various resolutions)

Printing Low Res.

Generates low-resolution (720 dpi and lower) raster data for the specified PDF files for page and imposition output. The PrinterEx JTP can output a file on disk. Your Prinergy Evo license dictates whether the PrinterEx JTP is capable of low- or high-resolution output to proof or plate.

Output

JTC

Creating Job Ticket

Takes the process template plus the input files and builds the job ticket (JT) that is sent for processing. Each JT includes references to the processing parameters (trap widths, screening, OPI enabled, and so on) as well as references to the input files.

Refine and Output

PrintLink

Generating PrintLink

Generates files with output plate previews for initializing ink keys on press. Files can be generated in CIP3.ppf or CIP4 JDF formats.

Output

VectorOutput

Vector Output

Generates vector format files for page and imposition output.
