Heidelberg launched a 25,000 workflow package titled Preflow at Northprint.

The product is for CTP and proofing production and is aimed at small to medium-sized commercial printers and repro houses.

Preflow comprises Heidelberg's imposition and workflow software Prinect Signastation 1.5, MetDimension 5 RIP, Adobe Acrobat Profesional and Enfocus Pitstop. The package also includes Heidelberg PDF Toolbox and PC server hardware.
