Trapping is either done using the Prinect PDF Toolbox (which is an Acrobat Plugin) tool called the Trap Editor with a click of the mouse or can be automated using the PDF Automation Pack in the workflow which starts with Prinect Prepress Manager.Īpart from trapping, PDF Toolbox has other functionalities such as preflighting files and generating a PDF Report Generation, Color Editor, Bar Code Editor, Coating Editor, and Object Editor. The automated creation of layouts for different printing formats is done quickly with the automatic and interactive positioning of all marks and control elements. A one-up key line created in Corel or other software can also be directly imported into Prinect Signa Station Packaging Pro to create a step and repeat layout with interlocking in the Signa Station itself. So the multi-layout CAD file acts basically as a place holder for the one up content pdf. Once this is done, the one up content PDF is positioned on the CFF2 file with a drag and drop functionality. In parallel, the Prinect Signa Station Packaging Pro also imports this CFF2 file (which is a multi-layout CAD already) on a plate template. The die-cut information can be forwarded to the die-cut tool maker or can be used for the control of machine tools. The Diemaker option enables the drawing of die-cutting forms with bridges, cut-off and compensating knives. Once the carton is designed and the multi-up step and repeat layout is created, it can be exported as a CFF2 file, which can also be used by the die-maker. And it can help to set up the folder-gluer faster and more accurately. The 3D display and animated folding sequences make it much easier to coordinate with customers and graphic designers. The functionality ranges from structural design through sample production, sheet layout and die-cutting parameterization to the generation of presetting data for postpress. A 3D view of the carton can also be exported from Package Designer. The software enables connection to any cutting and creasing sample making machine for prototyping.
The Package Designer module has a library of designs from ECMA and FFECO.
Prinect Package Designer is the CAD software for making carton design and die-lines.
