Leave a comment

Zevrix Solutions announces LinkOptimizer 4.9.45, a compatibility update to its workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. LinkOptimizer allows to reduce the size of InDesign links and speed up processing 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 makes LinkOptimizer compatible with the 2015 release of InDesign CC featured as part of Adobe Creative Cloud.

Toronto (ON), Canada (June 23, 2015) — Zevrix Solutions today announces LinkOptimizer 4.9.45, a compatibility update to its workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Awarded 4 out of 5 stars by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer automates complex image manipulation tasks and allows to significantly reduce the size of InDesign links, save processing time and reduce production costs.

The new version makes LinkOptimizer compatible with the recently announced 2015 release of InDesign CC, featured as part of Adobe Creative Cloud. The update is offered free of charge to LinkOptimizer users. The same version of LinkOptimizer can be used with any version of InDesign and Photoshop from CS3 and later.

“This is the best extension I ever purchased for any design app,” says Wayne Guy of Edge Graphics in Van Nuys, California. “It saves hours of time, tediously replacing linked images, resizing, batch processing. Worth every penny… It’s a must have tool for a designer who works with large inDesign files with lots of images, like catalogs or magazines.”

LinkOptimizer works automatically with Photoshop to eliminate the excess image data of InDesign links, perform essential image adjustments and convert image formats. For example, with just a click of a button users can:

–Scale and crop images to match their dimensions in InDesign
-Change their resolution to 300 dpi
–Convert RGB images to CMYK
-Resave JPEG files 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, 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 Adobe Exchange and 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 requires Mac OS X 10.6-10.10 and Adobe InDesign and Photoshop CS3-CC 2015.

Users can work with other programs while Output Factory continues to output InDesign documents in the background, or let the software do all of the heavy lifting while they go out for dinner, or even home for the night. The program supports printing as well as exporting to PDF, PostScript, EPS, Flash, EPUB and other formats. It offers the following key features:

–Batch output of InDesign files

-run a Photoshop Action on each image.

At the end of processing, LinkOptimizer reimports images to InDesign at 100% in their precise position. In addition, the software can apply sharpening filters, merge layers and delete hidden ones, and process copies of InDesign links instead of original files.
