Industry Standards. . . Can’t Live With Them, Can’t Live Without Them • CIP 4 • JDF • UNADI • SPACE XML • Ad-ID 14
What is CIP 4? CIP 4 is an international, world wide operating standards body located in Switzerland. The purpose of the association is to encourage computer based integration of all processes that have to be considered in the graphic arts industry, in particular the specification of standards, including the Job Definition Format (JDF). The International Cooperation for the Integration of Processes in Prepress, Press and Postpress 15
What is JDF? The Job Definition Format is a comprehensive XMLbased file format/proposed industry standard for end-to-end job ticket specifications combined with a message description standard and message interchange protocol. 16
What Will JDF Do? • streamline information exchange between different applications and systems. • enable the entire industry, including media, design, graphic arts, on-demand, and e-commerce companies, etc. to implement and work with individual workflow solutions. • integration of heterogeneous products from diverse vendors into seamless workflow solutions. 17
Important JDF Features: • Carry a print job from genesis through completion. – Detailed description of the creative, prepress, postpress, and delivery processes. • Bridge the communication gap between production and Management Information Services. – Instantaneous job and device tracking, detailed pre- and postcalculation of jobs • Bridge the gap between the customer's view of the product and the manufacturing process – Defining a process-independent product view, processdependent production view of a print job. 18

We believe one universally accepted standard will help the industry work more efficiently and effectively together. ” Jim Stengel Global Marketing Officer The Proctor & Gamble Company 23
