Leave a comment

Zevrix Solutions announces LinkOptimizer 4.9.19, a feature update to its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. LinkOptimizer allows to reduce InDesign link size, speed up processing and reduce packaged files sent to printer by eliminating excess image data. The software also performs image adjustments, converts file formats and helps repurpose InDesign files for web and mobile devices. The new version supports the Automatic image resampling method in Photoshop CC and later.

Toronto (ON), Canada (July 29, 2014) — Zevrix Solutions today announces LinkOptimizer 4.9.17, a compatibility update to its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Awarded 4 out of 5 stars by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer automates complex image manipulation tasks allowing to significantly reduce the size of InDesign links, save processing time and reduce production costs.

The new version lets users choose the Automatic resampling method for image processing in Photoshop CC and later. With this selection Photoshop will always choose the best resampling method from all the available ones, which simplifies the processing dramatically and improves the resulting image quality after both downsampling and upsampling operations.

“LinkOptimizer makes me extremely happy”, says Nynke Tiekstra, the owner of design studio ColtsfootMedia in Friesland, Netherlands. “It converted 10,000 images in a 1800 pages project saving us at least 40 hours work, and it proved to be 100% accurate.”

-scale and crop images to match their dimensions in InDesign,
-change their resolution to 300 dpi,
–convert RGB images to CMY,
-resave JPEG images as TIFF,
-run a Photoshop Action on each image.

At the end of processing, LinkOptimizer reimports images to InDesign at 100% in their precise position. As a result, users can save gigabytes of disk space, reduce packaged files sent to printer, accelerate document output, reduce job turnaround and cut costs through faster processing.

Pricing and Availability:
LinkOptimizer can be purchased from Zevrix website for US$259.95 (Light version: $179.95) as well as from authorized resellers. Trial is also available for download. The update is free for LinkOptimizer 4.x users and $130 to upgrade from previous versions. LinkOptimizer is available for Mac OS X 10.6-10.9 and works with Adobe InDesign and Photoshop CS3-CC 2014.
