The High Productivity Server

Thanks to its open architecture, Crescendo adapts easily to the most demanding production environments and offers new heights in productivity and system uptime.

RIPped at the first step of production, pages can be proofed, imposed, and exposed through the network to any device. The final result is guaranteed from step to step, since no later interpretation is necessary.

Crescendo benefits from universal Shaper PDF file format and PDF-IT for archiving in its standard configuration, which guarantees unparalleled reliability in production environments that rely on remote production and remote proofing.

Proof = Print

Harlequin™ technology and ArtQuest's P2 Output Plugin secure your pages at the first step of the production process, and no subsequent reinterpretation is nercessary. Since the document is only interpreted once, the output will be identical on any device. Once converted into high-resolution images, pages are guaranteed to output correctly at every run.

Shaper Output

Shaper output offers the guaranteed security of a Tiff-IT image, in a standard-size PDF file. The universality of PDF, and the simplicity of the vector data that it contains, ensure that a Shaper file can be processed on any PDF-enabled RIP. Shaper PDF files can be viewed and printed from any PDF reader, and imposed on any PDF based imposition software.

JobTracker

JobTracker control interface, which can be accessed throughout the local network, allows you to view the list of jobs being processed on your Crescendo server in real time. JobTracker also displays job details such as color separation mode, processing time, used images and fonts, etc. The level of detail can be customized to make sure that you have access to the right amount of information to match your needs.

Export

Cresendo's multiple available export formats make it easy to exchange data with any other system.

Satellites

Any functionality can be diverted to one or more additional servers. The satellite manager lets you group jobs according to your needs, so as to optimize the productivity of your network. Configuration files and activity logs are centralized on the master server for easy access.
