The first turnkey export tool for designers

Thanks to Shaper™, an unprecedented technological innovation, graphic designers can generate secure, lightweight PDF files that are compliant with Level 2 systems and devices. PrePress in a Box lets designers validate and secure their own creations. This technological evolution simplifies the prepress process by merging it with design.

Features

• Interpretation
  High-resolution Harlequin™ Eclipse® RIP, offering enough resolution to feed imagesetters.
• Proofing
  Sub-sampling module that can accurately render any page's final aspect either on-screen or on a desktop printer, with reliable color rendering and representation of the document's finest details.
• Secure export
  Shaper™ creates secure production files in PDF, PostScript or EPS format, to meet any printer's needs. Files generated with PrePress in a Box combine the benefits of the PDF format with those of high-resolution images: a document of reasonable size with secure content that is also compatible with Level 2 systems.

Benefits

Eliminate delays caused by errors
Using secure files guarantees that the file will print correctly, which eliminates problems between printer, prepress shop, designer, and final client.

Maximize ROI on your printers
Proofs generated by PrePress in a Box are a subsampling of high-resolution image data. This proofing method delivers constant results on any printer on the market. That means you can make the most of your equipment investments, since you no longer need to replace your printers regularly to keep drivers up to date: simply update PrePress in a Box and your printers are as good as new!

Immediate validation
PrePress in a Box's high-resolution RIP lets you view a document's printed aspect without having it certify by an external prepress shop. This eliminates unexpected production delays and errors due to RIPping: if the file can be secured, it can be printed.

Peace of mind
Secure Shaper™ files can be processed independently on any production system.

More reliable than certification
Shaper™ files are compatible with all Level 2 compliant systems, which constitutes a stronger guarantee than any PDF certification standard could ever offer. Furthermore, since the content is secured, the correspondence with the print result is ensured.
