Xitron has been developing prepress solutions since 1977. Our mission is to engineer intuitive, productive, and affordable alternatives capable of driving output devices manufactured by the most popular vendors on the market today.
HARLEQUIN RIP WORKFLOW DEVELOPMENT
Xitron’s engineering team introduced our first Harlequin-based software RIP in 1992. Under continuous development since then, the Navigator RIP includes 64-bit architecture, native PDF interpretation, accurate transparency rendering, and customizable workflow modules. Optional features such as trapping, imposition, load balancing, and non-disruptive preview take Navigator well beyond the scope of a simple RIP.
ADOBE WORKFLOW DEVELOPMENT
For production environments preferring the Adobe PDF Print Engine, Xitron offers Sierra; a complete prepress workflow that includes JDF integration, built-in dynamic imposition, and cross-media functionality. Built around APPE 5.5 (currently), Sierra includes PDF pre-flighting, advanced soft proofing, and Adobe’s proven in-RIP trapping.
CUSTOM SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
The development team behind our industry’s largest and most well-known names belongs to Xitron. Companies such as Agfa, Ryobi, Mitsubishi, Memjet, Glunz & Jensen, Ohio Engraving, Global Graphics, Presstek, and Neopost rely on Xitron engineers to deliver industry-standard software that is as reliable as it is productive.
