Adobe PDF Print Engine 2
Powering the next generation of PDF workflows
Adobe® PDF Print Engine 2 enables integrated, end-to-end PDF workflows for printing graphically rich content, including variable content for personalized publishing. Adobe OEM partners are building the technology into the next generation of prepress and print solutions. Adobe PDF Print Engine 2 streamlines print production by utilizing a single workflow for all job types — offset, short-run digital, and Variable Data Publishing (VDP) — maximizing reliability and flexibility and providing new opportunities for growth. It provides printers with an easy on-ramp to add personalized publishing to their existing workflows.
Adobe PDF Print Engine 2 builds on the proven success of version 1. It combines the strengths of Adobe PDF for content definition with the power of JDF for workflow automation. Soon to be available in printing systems from Adobe partners, Adobe Print Engine 2 simplifies upstream VDP workflows and unifies prepress production. It empowers designers to create leading-edge content with confidence, knowing it will be reproduced as expected.
