CreoScitex
is releasing CreoScitex Supertrap, a stand-alone version of the
PDF trapping solution from the Prinergy workflow management system,
for use with all CreoScitex workflow products, such as the Brisque,
PS/M and iMPAct workflow systems. CreoScitex Supertrap is also
available to users of most other PostScript 3 workflows.
CreoScitex
Supertrap is an Acrobat plugin that allows Brisque, PS/M and iMPAct
users to interactively perform vector-based trapping tasks while
retaining the open standard of native PDF files. This application,
available for Windows and Macintosh OS, offers the same vector-based
PDF trapping functionality as Prinergy, according to CreoScitex.
As with the
integrated version, CreoScitex Supertrap is a native PDF to PDF
object-based trapper with a wide range of trap creation and modification
features. Complex traps are created as separate vector objects
and are based on the neutral density of adjoining vector or CT
objects. Each trap object can be modified independently by adjusting
any of the trap parameters, such as width, direction or color.
An advanced
version of CreoScitex Supertrap is also available and includes
specialized trapping functions for the packaging market, such
as the ability to modify trap geometry, such as bevel and round
and mitered trap corners, as well as to modify individual points
in a trap object.
