Simplify Your Imposition Work
The headache. Most imposition software was built for a different era of print, and it shows. Heavy desktop applications like Kodak Preps and EFI Metrix are locked to a single licensed machine, creating bottlenecks. Steep learning curves, broken upgrades, machines running out of memory and complex setups mean prepress operators spend more time wrestling with software than shipping jobs. And for those using Adobe InDesign, well, sorry you aren’t leaving the shop early on Friday.
The fix. File Splice was built for the way modern print shops actually work. Easily create, name and save templates for clients, workflows or products. Upload the files in your browser or via FTP, adjust a couple of settings and you’re done. Because it lives in the cloud, your whole team can access it from anywhere, keeping jobs moving even when you’re away from the shop. And with pricing that replaces four-figure desktop licenses, the savings go straight back to your bottom line. Plus it’s backed by free support whenever you need it. It’s imposition the way it always should have been.
