In version 1.18.0, a new functionality for alternating Print Items over rows in a Step & Repeat Imposition and repeating them accordingly has been integrated. This function is primarily intended for customers in the label sector who want to alternate and repeat their Print Items on a larger Impose Sheet or Repeat.

Proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. Create an Imposition in Step & Repeat mode or open the desired Imposition.
3. Open the Artboard tab [6].
4. In the Grid Settings [7] settings area, select the following options:
   • Fill Method [8] - select the Row entry.
   • Columns/Rows [9] - deactivate the Auto options for the columns and rows and enter the desired number of columns and rows so that the Print Item sequence is repeated.
   • One Print Item per Column/Row [10] - activate this option to ensure that only one Print Item is placed for each column per row and that the new Alternate Print Items option is displayed.
5. Activate the Alternate Print Items option [11]. Print Items are now displayed alternately row by row in the Imposition.
6. If you need to create the Step & Repeat to a predefined height (repeat size), you must select the Horizontal Auto [13] and Vertical Auto [13] options in the Spacing area so that the Print Items are distributed horizontally and vertically according to the repeat width and repeat height.
7. Then enter the minimum horizontal and vertical spacing [12] that must be maintained between the Print Items.

Figure 3: An Imposition in Step & Repeat mode with alternating Print Items

In version 1.17.0, the two new strategies Minimum Overproduction and Minimum Underproduction were made available for Step & Repeat and Nesting mode. In this version, the calculation of these strategies for multipage Impositions in Nesting has been optimized. The respective production is also maintained over several pages.

The display for underproduced Print Items in the Impose Editor has also been revised and improved. As of this version, only the number of underproduced Print Items is displayed, and no longer the number of overproduced Print Items.

Figure 4: The dialog Errors and Warnings in the Impose Editor with the displayed underproduced Print Items

Since version 1.16.0, Mounting Instructions can be created in the Workflow. In version 1.18.0, it is possible for the first time to create Mounting Instructions without having to transfer the file to the printer first.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to the Production Job of the desired Tiling.
2. Open the Imposition tab [17].
3. The Mounting Instruction button [18] is active - click on it.
4. In the Create Mounting Instruction dialog, click on Generate Report [19] after entering the desired information.
5. The report is downloaded locally as a PDF and can be checked before the file is actually printed.

Figure 6: The Impose tab of a Production Job with the possibility to download a Mounting Report

As of version 1.18.0, Captions for Print Items in the Impose Editor are automatically cropped according to the selected ImageBox or ImageBox + Bleed position if they are longer than the width or side edge of the respective Print Item. Previously, if the Caption per Print Item was too long, this led to unwanted overlaps with neighboring Print Items.

Proceed as follows to add a Caption for a Print Item:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. Open the desired Imposition or add Print Items to a new Imposition.
3. Open the Marks tab [20].
4. In the Captions [21] selection field, select the Text entry.
5. Determine the desired Position [22] - ImageBox or ImageBox + Bleed - for your Print Items.
6. Add a Caption in the input field [24] and click on Update [25].
7. For the alignment [23] of the Caption, you can choose between left, centered and right.

Figure 7: The settings area Captions in the Markers tab of the Impose Editor

In version 1.18.0, it is now possible to add a multiline Caption to Print Items.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. Select the desired Impose Mode and add a Print Item to the Imposition.
3. Open the Marks [26] tab.
4. In the Captions selection field, select Text.
5. Add the desired Caption in the [Caption] field [27].
6. Press the [Enter] button to continue the Caption in a new line.

Figure 8: A multiline Caption

In this version, the option to create a separate Dieline for a Caption has been provided.

This function was mainly implemented for customers who want to cut out a Caption separately during the cutting process in order to then glue this Caption to the back of the printed Print Item.

Proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. Create an Imposition with Print Items in the desired Impose Mode.
3. Switch to the Marks tab [28] and add a Text caption via the Caption selection field [29].
4. Determine the desired Position for the Caption.
5. Open the Dieline [30] settings area and click Activate [31]. Now specify the following values:
   • Corner Type - select whether the corner of the Dieline should be beveled or rounded.
   • Radius - enter the radius for the bevel or rounding. If you do not want to create beveled or rounded corners, leave the value “0”.
   • Stroke Width - enter the value for the desired Stroke Width here.
   • Offset - enter the desired X and Y offset for the Dieline from the Caption here.
   • Technical Color - select the desired technical and system-wide Spot Color for the Dieline.
   • Overprint - set the Dieline to Overprint or Knockout. "Overprint” is selected by default.

Figure 9: The settings area Dieline when creating a Caption

In this version, it is now possible to merge Dielines, which were created in the Finishing tab, with Captions to create a kind of flap when cutting out the Print Items. The flap can then be folded over accordingly by the finishing department.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. Open the desired Imposition that contains a Caption with a Dieline or create the caption.
3. Open the Finishing tab [32].
4. Add a Dieline using the Dieline selection field [33].
5. In the settings area for the added Dieline, activate the Include Captions [34] option. Make sure that the Dieline of the Caption touches the Dieline for the Print Item, as this is the only way to create a continuous Dieline for the tab.

Figure 10: The Finishing tab with the new function Include Captions

Enhancements have been added in this version for the OMET Marks which were implemented in version 1.17.1. Improvements have been made to the user guidance and the positioning of the Mark has been changed.

From this version onwards, the Mark is displayed mirror-inverted, which meets the requirements in practice. The color bars of the OMET Mark are also created dynamically depending on the selected Color Policy.

Figure 11: Omet Marks with changed positioning

Only a minor adjustment was made the BOBST Power Register Marks that were added to the Sheet Template in the Workflow in version 1.17.1. The name of the Mark has been standardized to BOBST Power Register Mark for the selection field and when displaying the Mark.

Figure 12: The Sheet Configuration with Marks in the Impose Editor

In version 1.18.0, an option has been provided for various Cutter Devices to place Marks for textiles with the following logic:

• at least one Mark should be placed at all four corners of the Print Item,
• the maximum Spacing between all Marks must not exceed the set value,
• the minimum Spacing between all Marks must not be less than the set value to ensure that the Marks of neighboring Print Items are not too close to each other.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. In the Finishing tab [35], add e.g.: Zund CutCenter in Cutter Devices [36].
3. In the Registration Marks [35] area, in Placement Method [38] select the entry Fabric Fit.
4. Determine the Minimum Distance [39] for the register marks.
5. In Fabric Fit, determine the maximum X and Y spacing for the Marks. However, first, select the Activate option [40].

Figure 13: A new Imposition with selected Placing Method Fabric Fit for Registration Marks

As of this version, it is possible - as for other barcode types - to display the text content of a QR Code next to the code for Cutter Devices. This is particularly necessary when printing fabrics as it is possible that the content of the QR code can no longer be read due to unfavorable circumstances. With this function, the operator is then at least able to enter the content on the Cutter Device.

To display the content of a QR code in human-readable form, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Impose Editor.
2. Create an Imposition in any Imposition Mode with Print Items.
3. Select a Cutter Device [41] in the Finishing tab.
4. Open the settings area for the relevant Barcode [42].
5. In the Type selection field, select QR Code [43].
6. Open the Text Options settings area and select the Show Text [45] option.
7. This will display the content of the QR code in human-readable form as text next to it. The font or size to be used for the text can be set in the Font Settings [44] settings area.

Figure 14: The Finishing tab with a Barcode of the QR-Code type and shown text for the QR Code

For version 1.18.0, two new features have been implemented for the Check-in/Normalize automator:

• The operation is skipped if the Article or Print Item has already been uploaded to the Workflow. Until this version, the existence of this operation led to errors when executing the Production Configuration.  However, if Print Items are processed via a Hotfolder or Quick Print, the operation is executed to process the Print Items for production using the selected Check-in Template [49].
• It is also possible to define the Print Item Name that should be used via placeholders [50].  This allows to define user-defined patterns for the file name, which may help you to better organize your file storage. It would be e.g. possible to display the following Print Item names:
  • GUID - the theme name is automatically generated by a unique string
  • Filename.pdf
  • File name
  • File name 1000 x 2000 mm
  • Current date File name
  • File name Number of pages
  • Filename | 1000x 3000 mm | 10 copies

Figure 17: The dialog Add Production Configuration with the Operation Check-in/Normalize

If the Split operation is included in a Production Configuration, multipage Print Items are split; single-sided Print Items are ignored and skipped by this operation.

Figure 18: The dialog Production Configuration with the Split Operation

The following improvements have been made to the Operation Create Production Job and Impose:

• The option to add placeholders [52] for Job Name, External ID and Comments has been created. This allows you to map a predefined structure for the designation of Production Jobs. The following examples are possible:
  • Today's date | Consecutive number per day
  • Today's date | Today's time | Consecutive number per day
  • GUID
• From this version onwards, Impose Parameters can be selected for the Operation:
  • In the Impose Mode Nesting, the option Optimized [51] is available. Activating this checkbox  starts the optimization of the Nesting after a Nesting has been created in order to achieve better Substrate utilization. When it isn't possible to place all Print Items in the Nesting, another Production Job is created with a new Nesting. This operation is then repeated until all Print Items in the Automation Job group have been completely placed with the specified number of pieces.
  • The Impose Mode Die Cut is now also available to automatically fill a selected N-Up.

Figure 19: The dialog Add Production Configuration with the Operation Create Production Job and Impose

The following improvements have been made to the Impose operation:

• As of this version, Roll Media [54] can be selected for the Production Configuration in conjunction with the maximum Roll Length [55].
• It is also possible to select Impose parameters for the operation:
  • In the Nesting Impose mode, the option Optimized [53] can be selected, which starts the optimization of the Nesting after it has been created. This is done to achieve better Substrate utilization. If not all Print Items can be placed in the Nesting, another Production Job is created with a new Nesting. This operation is then repeated until all Print Items in the Automation Job group have been completely placed with the specified number of pieces.
  • The Impose Mode Die Cut is now also available to automatically fill a selected N-Up.

For logical reasons, it is not possible to combine the Impose operation with the Production Job and Create Impose operation

Figure 20: The dialog Add Production Configuration with the Operation Impose

The following improvements have been made to the Operation Create Production Job:

• The dialog has been completely revised and combined into one dialog. The same input fields exist as in the operation Create Production Job and Impose.

Figure 21: The dialog Add Production Configuration with the Operation Create Production Job

After you have selected several Print Items in the list of Print Items, create an Automation Job with the selected Production Configuration for the selected Print Items. By selecting the Exclude from Production Scheduler [56] option, ensure that the selected Print Items are not automatically processed a second time by a Production Scheduler.

Figure 22: The dialog Generate Automation Job

As of this version, it is possible to reset Articles or Print Items that have already been processed by an Automation Job so that they can be picked up again by a scheduler.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to the list of Articles or Print Items.
2. The symbol [58] in Additional Information in the footer of an Article/Print Items indicates whether an Article/Print Item has already been processed by an Automation Job.
3. Select the desired Articles or Print Items from the list and select the entry Reset Print Item Processed by the Production Scheduler [57] in the More menu.
4. The Articles or Print Items are reset and will be executed again the next time a Production Scheduler is started.

Figure 23: The More dialog with the command Reset Print Item processed by the Production Scheduler

Alternatively, reset the Articles or Print Items using the Production Scheduler itself.

To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Navigate to Automation > Production Scheduler.
2. Filter for the desired Production Scheduler.
3. Click on the paused/active icon [59] to view the list of Print Items being processed.
4. In the list of Print Items, click Delete [60] for the desired Print Item to enable this Print Item for processing in a Production Scheduler.
5. Print Items are removed from the list and can therefore be processed again.

Figure 24: A Production Scheduler with the function Reset Print Item Processed by the Production Scheduler

From this version onwards, the Production Scheduler can use Print Items [62] in the Apply to tab [61] for processing – until this version, this was only possible for Articles.

Figure 25: The tab Apply to in the Edit Production Scheduler dialog

Up to this version, Articles in the Trash were displayed in the list of Production Schedulers in Number of Files. In the Edit Production Scheduler dialog, however, only the Number of Files [63] that can be viewed via the current Article or Print Item list was displayed.

This behavior has been fixed. As of version 1.18.0, only those Articles/Print Items are included in the Production Scheduler that are also available in the current Article or Print Item list.

As of this version, a customer who is assigned to an Article or Print Item is automatically used with the first assigned contact person when creating the Approval Report in both the Report Settings step and the Approval Options step.

Report Settings: The assigned Customer [64] with the first Contact Person and the E-mail Address [65] are pre-filled by default.

With version 1.17.2, it was only possible to create and manage Approval Projects in the Approval Project Dashboard and Approval Reports could be created there. With version 1.18.0, Approval Projects can also be published on the online Approval Portal, which means that Approval Reports can be approved online without sending the PDF files.

Before making an Approval Project available online for approval, make the necessary decisions in the Share Options tab of the Create Approval Project dialog.

• Publish to Approval Portal [67] – this causes the Workflow to transfer the Approval Project to the online Approval Portal. Please note that you have to obtain an additional option for your license.
• Approval Portal [68] – select the Approval Portal set up for this purpose. A description on how to set up an Approval Portal is available in more detail in the article Recommended Preparation.
• E-Mail Template [69] – select the E-Mail template with which the email should be sent to the E-Mail recipient. Find out how to set up and manage an E-Mail template in the Release Notes for 1.11.1 in the Manage E-Mail Templates section.
• E-Mail Recipient [70] – enter all E-Mail addresses of the people who are allowed to approve Approvals. The E-mail address of the assigned customer is entered by default.
• Upload and Send E-Mail [71] – by activating this option, the Workflow will send the e-mail automatically from the Workflow. If Workflow is not allowed to send E-mails for IT reasons, the Approval Project can be transferred to the Approval Portal. The notification can be sent to the end customer via the e-mail client of the internal sales department with the link to the online approval.
