Package Printing with RasterPlus
RasterPlus
features digital package printing – the ability to make multiple
digital reprints of an image on the same page. Regardless of the original
image size,
RasterPlus will automatically orient and resize an image to fill each frame
on the page. The result is a photo package ready to cut into perfect 8x10,
5x7, 4x6 or wallet prints.
PackagePlus Raises the Bar!
PackagePlus
lets you create customized photo packages to use with RasterPlus. Your
creativity can run free with unlimited image frames, image overlays, customized
cropping,
colored borders and multiple page packages. You’ll save money,
reduce waste and increase production by automatically printing multiple
images
at the same time.
Control
Image Sizing Automatically
When RasterPlus prints photo packages, the images
are automatically oriented, sized
and cropped to fit each photographic frame on the page. The aspect ratio
of the original file is always maintained, with cropping done (if needed)
to the
center of the image.
PackagePlus gives you control over the cropping intent used in each image frame on the page. By favoring the left, right, top, bottom or center, you can create prints that keep the information you want. This is critical for portrait work where image cropping should be done away from important subject matter.
Add
Overlays
You can add value to your prints with PackagePlus by applying a logo
or custom border in your package design. Overlays can be created in Photoshop
and can
include alpha channel information for transparent fades. The overlays are
automatically sized and applied to each frame on the page at print time for
true production
efficiency. Now you can use the original images and let RasterPlus customize
each print for you.
Create
Custom Borders
PackagePlus also lets you create templates for standard page
sizes that include borders. Both simple and sophisticated, like "sloppy borders",
are supported
Native Fotoba
Digitrim Support
Any digital printer using RasterPlus with PackagePlus can produce
the positioning marks that the Fotoba Digitrim trimmer reads and uses to
self-align and cut perfectly
trimmed images.
The Digitrim is fully automatic, features a programmable double cut to remove cut mark indications between prints, and is accurate to .1 mm. It has a maximum cutting thickness of .5 mm and can process up to 3000 12" prints (from a 10" roll) or 1000 30" prints (from 20" x 30" sheets) per hour.
The Page is Your Canvas
With PackagePlus,
you can make any printer page into a photo package. Simply select a desired
page for your
canvas and draw image frames anywhere you
want. The frames can be any size or orientation, and can overlap for interesting
collage effects.
