VI Document Formats
VI jobs are created using VI authoring programs that support Variable
Print Specification and VIPP formats. Most VI authoring programs can
convert VI files to conventional PS files, which can also be processed by the
Spire CXP6000 color server, although less efficiently than Variable Print
Specification and VIPP files. Each authoring program creates VI code that
instructs the RIP where to place the VI elements and each authoring
program does so in a slightly different manner.
The format you choose can be a stand-alone format that covers all aspects
of document design, data management and text capture or it can be an
extension of an existing program that enables the creation of VI
documents and VI jobs.
The Spire CXP6000 color server can process VI jobs that are in one of the
following file formats:
•
Creo Variable Print Specification
•
Xerox Variable data Intelligent Postscript Printware (VIPP)
•
Personal Print Markup Language (PPML)
•
PostScript.
Note: Variable Print Specification, VIPP, and PPML elements are displayed in the
Resource Center under the Cached VI Elements area.
