EskoArtwork today announced that its latest workflow software ArtPro 9.0 has met with tremendous customer approval, with 75 per cent of current ArtPro 8.0 customers upgrading to the new version within a week of launch.
Carsten Knudsen, president of EskoArtwork says one of the key objectives following the acquisition of Artwork Systems by Esko was to leverage the synergies of the respective products through increased integration.
He says, “ArtPro 9.0 is a perfect example of the synergy that we saw between the two companies. ArtPro 9.0 is now integrated with mature EskoArtwork workflow solutions, including Nexus, Odystar and BackStage. ArtPro users can take advantage of these efficiencies.”
The company says the ArtPro 9.0 software offers the most advanced solution on the market, especially when combined with the rest of the EskoArtwork product suite. The ability for ArtPro users to seamlessly exchange PDF production assets with other EskoArtwork applications without the need for conversion and with maintenance of critical production data boosts efficiency and reduces processing time, waste and errors.
ArtPro 9.0 also imports native ArtiosCAD structural design files, an important enhancement for users in the folding carton industry. ArtPro 9.0’s direct link to EskoArtwork Visualizer then allows instant creation of 3D mock-ups in an ultra-realistic, real-time environment that is revolutionizing the design of packaging and other dimensional applications, according to the company.
