Modular NewsWay software will control and manage workflow from a variety of front-end systems through to output. And because it uses a simple Web browser, NewsWay will monitor production status, both at origination and print sites, irrespective of location.
NewsWay supports IFRA Track, JDF (Job Definition Format), ICC profiles, PDF as well as Bitmap workflow, imposition and page pairing. NewsWay also integrates with plate scanners and press control systems, providing one cost-effective integrated end-to-end production solution.
We
understand that all Newspapers all work differently; they use different
systems, and need a workflow solution that will precisely fit them and
their way of working. That is why ProImage will deliver NewsWay built to
deliver exactly what each customer wants, and then enhance it as their
needs dictate. We appreciate that workflow is not 'one size fits all'.
The NewsWay solution is packaged as a core product with multiple add-on
modules (see below). This incremental building-block approach permits
various combinations of tools and services to be configured in order to
address specific customer requirements. Additional modules can be added
at any time as additional functions are needed. |

Workflow is to do with people, not only files: Comprehensive tools for
collaboration permit staff to work together more efficiently than ever
before. Instructions are clear, correction cycles are faster, and errors
are reduced. NewsWay's intuitive interface allows the printer to plan
jobs, automate the workflow and manage the operation. Job planning tools
eliminate wasted time caused by recreating similar products. Intelligent
load balancing automatically overcomes production bottlenecks; and where
there are errors or late changes, raster imposition allows the user to
redo just the page or separation in question, not the entire job. In
addition, advanced communication software optimizes the speed and
quality of transmissions between locations.
