Output Factory Server for Adobe InDesign Adds PDF Security Automation - Published on 05/20/15

Zevrix Solutions has announced Output Factory Server 1.2, a feature update to its output workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Output Factory Server automates printing and exporting from InDesign by processing files from hot folders. The software offloads output tasks to a central system leaving operator workstations free from the output process. The new version lets users automate creation of secure PDF files with password protection, encryption, print restrictions, and other options.

Toronto (ON) Canada - Zevrix Solutions has announce the release of Output Factory Server 1.2, a feature update to its solution to automate printing, exporting and post-processing from Adobe InDesign. Developed originally for a major magazine publisher in the United States to free up their operator computers from outputting InDesign files, the software automates InDesign workflow by processing files from watched hot folders.

The new version allows to incorporate PDF security options into workflow settings, thus letting users create secure PDF files automatically from hot folders. Output Factory is the only tool that can automate this process as even InDesign's built-in PDF export presets don't allow users to save the security features. Output Factory offers all the PDF security methods available from Adobe, such as password protection, encryption, and restriction of printing, copying and editing.

"Output Factory Server is an extremely useful utility for a busy production facility or advertising agency", writes David Creamer in Layers magazine, "It can save lots of time - which equates to money."

Under the Output Factory Server workflow, production artists, prepress operators and designers simply copy InDesign jobs to hot folders that reside on a network. Users can create hot folders for different output targets such as hi-res PDF, large format printing, EPUB files and so on. The software offers the following key features:

* Print and export InDesign files from watched hot folders
* Supports print, PDF, PostScript, TIFF, EPUB and other formats
* Automatic e-mail notifications
* Export InDesign files as single pages
* Layer versioning
* Variable output file names
* Preflight files before output
* Serve unlimited users on a network

Output Factory Server can be purchased from Zevrix web site for $699.95 (USD), as well as from authorized resellers. Trial is also available for download. BatchOutput Server users can upgrade for $350. Output Factory Server runs on Mac OS X 10.6-10.10 and works with Adobe InDesign CS3-CC 2014.
