“EFI is the world leader in digital controllers, superwide format printers and inks, and print management solutions. Our customers benefit greatly from interoperability, so EFI is a driving force for standards adoption across the print industry. JDF and PDF are industry standards for interchange formats, and the Adobe PDF Print Engine is the first PDF RIP we’ve seen that natively integrates the content, PDF, with the job ticket, JDF. Continuing our long-standing, successful relationship with Adobe, EFI is working closely with Adobe to create a “world class” Adobe PDF Print Engine-based digital print controller. We believe that the Adobe PDF Print Engine is a means for our customers to more precisely print/render PDF files in reference to what they see on the screen during the content creation process. We look forward to bringing this technology to digital controllers and to office equipment in the future.” — Mehran Farimani, senior vice president and general manager, Server and Controller Solutions, EFI
