Zevrix Updates Output Factory for InDesign: Improves Queue Management

Zevrix Solutions announces Output Factory 1.1.8, a feature update to its new solution to automate output from Adobe InDesign. Output Factory automates printing, exporting and post-processing from InDesign, and offers batch processing, single page export, variable file names, layer versioning, preflighting, processing history and more. The new version lets users add the entire folder contents to the file queue automatically with the option to add InDesign files from entire folder subtree.

Toronto (ON), Canada – May 5, 2012 – Zevrix Solutions today announces the release of Output Factory 1.1.8, a feature update to its professional solution to automate printing, exporting and post-processing from Adobe InDesign. Output Factory is the major upgrade of the company’s widely popular plug-in BatchOutput which automates and simplifies workflows of printers, prepress bureaus, design agencies and publishing houses worldwide.

The new version allows users to add all InDesign files from selected folders to the queue automatically without the need to select each file individually. Users have a choice to add files from the selected folder only, or from the entire folder subtree.

Output Factory is a powerful solution to automate InDesign’s output tasks, whether users need to send hundreds of documents or just a single one. Users only need to select the files to output and adjust the settings, and Output Factory will do the rest automatically. For example, the software can be left exporting hundreds of InDesign files overnight, and the completed job can be picked up next morning.

“When every second counts Output Factory is a life saver!” says Glen Saville of the design firm glensaville.com in the UK, “I had a 20 book job to do the other day and had to get PDFs out very quickly, and it was absolutely indispensable!”

Output Factory supports printing as well as exporting to PDF, PostScript, EPS, Flash, INX, IDML, EPUB and several image formats. It offers the following key features:

Batch processing of InDesign files
-Output as single pages
-Save groups of output settings
-Output to several formats at once
-Update modified links automatically
-Assign powerful variable output file names.
-Layer versioning: output layer combinations as single files.
Preflight InDesign documents and skip the ones with errors
-Preflight final PDFs
-History: keep track of jobs, output files and errors.

Pricing and Availability:
Output Factory can be purchased from Zevrix website for US$169.95, as well as from authorized resellers. Trial is also available for download.
