Stream’s User interface that allows you to configure the workflow using a drag and drop methodology.
Module- Input Spool Folder
Support PostScript, Encapsulated PostScript, PDF and TIFF files. It can also automatically group files into jobs based on filename rule.
Module – Composer
Support PostScript, Encapsulated PostScript, PDF and TIFF files. User can manaually group files together into jobs.
Module - OUTPUT (Device Output Controller)
Send ripped files to Raster PrintStation 2 software or third-party TIFF Downloaders
Module – Raster Import
Support pre-separated and RIP-separated 1-bit files such as 1-bit TIFF, Harlequin Page Buffers and NetFlow Raster. User can freely convert from one format to the other. In addition, an additional function to generate Harlequin Page Feature allows users to easily divert Harlequin Page Buffer files to a specific output folder.
Module – PDF (PDF Input Folder)
Input folder that accepts PDF files.
Module – Content (Content Proof)
Fast, entry-level 1-bit proofing module for generation of PDF files, proofing to Windows Printer, or outputting to large format inkjet plotters. Fast creation of positional quality proofs.
Module - TIFF (TIFF File Output)
Output folder that accepts TIFF files generated from the RIP.
Module – INTERNET (Internet File Transfer)
Generate ripped contone data for easy soft-proofing
Web Job Monitor
Control jobs (start, stop, re-order) via a web browser interface.
*Enabler-CMM (ColorPro – In RIP Color Management)
Enabler for ColorPro-Enabled Harlequin RIP provides Accurate high-speed proofing for PostScript and PDF files. Requires ColorPro application.
*Enabler-StarProof
Enabler for StarProof Application – produces high quality screened proofs on inkjet devices. Requires StarProof application.
II. Stream RIP
An integral part of any professional prepress system is the RIP. Escher-Grad Steam RIP easily handles today's pre-press industry file formats, providing advanced screening technology and high-end performance and productivity. See more information
III. Stream PDF Imposition V5 (Unlimted)
A standalone application for imposing PDF files. Support multiple layouts per job. Intuitive user interface allows easy configuration of complex imposition scheme. Also provide simple flatwork functions to gang up odd jobs for single-sided or double-sided printing.
IV. Stream Trap Lite (Automated version)
High-end trapping software. The automated version allows trapping of the entire job with the same set of high-end trapping parameters. Optional interactive version allows different trapping parameters for different zones in the job pages.
V. Enfocus Pitstop Server
Pre-flight and certify PDF files with pre-defined profiles and action list using the industry standard PitStop Server.
VI. Visual Proof Standard
Softproofing facility that allows users to softproof ripped files, merge separations, check colours, screening angles, trapping, overprints and content from multiple stations.
