Infigo Variable Data Printing

Infigo Variable Data Printing (VDP) is a Variable Data composition and ouput tool that enables the user to connect a PDF template to a data source and output a single or multiple PDF files. The templates are created by taking a standard PDF file and adding fields that are then recognised on output of the personalised data. The adding of the fields to the pdf file is done with the Infigo Designer which is a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat and the Output is created by the Infigo Variable Data Printing application into PDF or PDF/PPML.

What are the benefits:

• A scalable solution. The templates can be used on the desktop, in a server environment and on the web.
• The templates start as standard PDF files. The Designer works inside Acrobat and is easy to use.
• Start with simple templates (business cards etc) and then make them more intelligent integrate text into pictures such as the icing on a cake or the name on the back of a football shirt.
• The Designer plug-ins are free. You only pay for the print ouput software.
