Abstract
Digital prepress can be optimised by
implementing new features to existing programs
for desktop publishing.Scripting programs that
execute prepress tasks, under certain conditions,
can accelerate and automate digital prepress
and reduce the number of errors in formatted
documents. With scripting technologies new
models can be created to solve complex prepress
tasks that improve digital prepress.
The paper describes the optimization of standard
prepress process which includes marking
corrections after proofreading. The new model
designed to improve processes in prepress is not
an option in the current selected program (Adobe
InDesign), and it was added to facilitate the
approval of corrections. The paper proves that it is
possible to optimally solve demanding tasks that
are otherwise difficult to establish by adding the
scripting model in standard prepress programs,
and to achieve tasks that are only possible by
scripting.
