Compare Editions
Choose the Digital or Offset edition based on your print production needs. Both editions include the same core imposition environment, while output limits and production options differ according to the needs of digital and offset printing.
Digital Edition
Designed for digital print production, the Digital Edition supports layouts up to 50 cm × 50 cm. It is ideal for general digital production, short-run jobs, and print shops that do not require CTP output.
Offset Edition
Designed for offset and advanced production environments, the Offset Edition removes the output size limit and adds CTP output support. It is ideal for commercial print production that requires larger layouts, plate output, and greater production flexibility.
