GUEST AUTHOR: Pat McGrew. The Tagged Image File Format, TIFF, was once the standard for archiving essential documents but now PDF provides the solution for ensuring searchability, security and accessibility.

Our journey as a company started 30 years ago today—on the 22nd of March in 1991. With a mission to provide printing capabilities from computers and mainframes to state-of-the-art digital printing engines, our software had an immediate need and impact.

The print production and digital delivery industries continue to feel the winds of change in 2021. For those running printing environments the challenges of managing print production continue.

As experts in PDF, we believe there are significant cost savings to be unlocked based on how you handle PDFs; savings that have yet to be achieved by many Print Service Providers (PSPs) in their printing environments and archives.

We know print and digital production floors are a bit more complicated than ordering DoorDash, Grubhub or an Uber; that doesn’t mean you should have to lose visibility when you step out of the building or back into your office.

By this time in August, we have become accustomed to “live” or in-person events being canceled in lieu of virtual events leveraging online video conferencing technology. Yes, we have all gone virtual.

The good news is that “font” doesn’t have to be akin to other four-letter words. In fact, our team here at Solimar Systems has engineered a new solution that will take away many, if not all, of your font woes.

Those that have been around the printing industry know that PDF has really changed the industry. In fact, you might not even remember what it stands for—many consumers just know they get or make PDFs so that they are easier to send and harder to modify.

Now is the time for printing and mailing operations to get lean by finding all those processes that haven’t had the chance or time to streamline.
