Infix Server provides a superset of the editing and PDF manipulation facilities offered in Infix in a server package designed for high-volume production of PDFs.
Unlike Infix which is an interactive editor, Infix Server works behind the scenes editing, composing and manipulating thousands of PDF documents without the need for user intervention.
Key Features
Since Infix Server is built upon the same technology as Infix, it offers a host of facilities not all of which are mentioned in this page. If your processing requirements are not covered here, please get in touch.
PDF Imposition / Page Construction
Infix Server can place existing PDF pages onto other pages.
Placed pages are positioned using x,y coordinates and can optionally
be scaled to fit within a bounding box. Scaling can be controlled within
pre-set limits to ensure pages are not over or undersized during automatic
placement.
If your newspaper or magazine operation currently composites editorial and advertising via Postscript/EPSF and you need to move over to a entirely PDF-based workflow, Infix Server is your solution.
Template Driven PDF Creation
Using an existing PDF as a template, Infix server can reflow
and justify new text into marked areas as well as replace existing artwork & photographs.
PDF templates can be easily created in a matter of minutes using a special version of Infix. All template information is then stored within the instrumented PDF documents.
One obvious use for this facility is to allow your customers to design their own advertisements on-line. Presented with a selection of example ad-types (PDF templates), users would upload images and text and then instantly review fully print-ready PDF ads generated from their data and template choices.
Variable Data Printing
Infix Server can search for and replace text within an existing
PDF, seamlessly reflowing and rejustifying the completed text to produce
for example, customised brochures.
By adding simple macros or "call-outs" such as [NAME] or [DEPARTMENT] to an existing document, sophisticated variable-data documents can be prepared. Call-outs can be added to the source document (InDesign, Illustrator, MSWord etc) or to the PDFs you produce using Infix.
Infix Server rapidly replaces the variable call-outs in the PDF with your data using the font-style of the call-out itself whilst reflowing text.
Infix Server-based systems are already in use in North America and UK, generating hundreds of dynamic multi-page documents per day based upon static templates.
