Esko-Graphics R&D manager for front-end software Lieven Plettinck has been appointed chairman of the packaging workgroup.
The objective of the pack workgroup is to define Job Definition Format (JDF) extensions with respect to the needs of packaging and label printing workflows.
It will also create additional documentation about JDF-based packaging and label printing workflows.
An active member of CIP4, Esko-Graphics has invested heavily in the integration of JDF.
