This well-established, robust integration is one of the most advanced integrations to Agfa workflow products on the market. We have taken advantage of Apogee-specific technology to create an enhanced interface between Agfa Apogee and Tharstern.
What the integration does, in a nutshell
An MIS to prepress workflow integration - it allows you to create jobs, deliver imposition, take advantage of Apogee specific workflow pre-setting and to update the MIS at key stages throughout production.
What the integration delivers
1
Auto-create and update jobs in Apogee
2
Supports dynamic plans for conventional and digital flows, along with page and imposition proofing
3
Automatically selects Apogee ticket templates based on MIS criteria
4
Automatic creation of imposition based on MIS job details
5

6

Why would you want this integration?
As the value and run length of jobs continues to decrease, the proportion of time spent in prepress effectively increases relevant to the whole job. This integration allows you to automate the more mundane prepress tasks, freeing your staff up to focus on more complex work.
