Optimized and Automated Book Production
The Professional Book module, an option to Océ
PRISMAproduction, creates super efficiencies by sorting the book printing orders into defined production “baskets”, for example, all B formats with yellowish paper are filtered into “basket” A and all Royal formats with yellowish paper are filtered into “basket” B. Additionally, the book inner works and the cover are given a unique barcode for tracking purposes, and assuring matching of the right inner works and cover at the binding stage.
