Building bridges between graphic designers, printers & publishers.
Too often, the delivery of files causes hassle both on the production and on the creative side. What is missing is efficient communication between all parties. That is precisely what PitStop Connect offers.
It enables you to offer customers an easy way of delivering files according to your specific requirements. It streamlines delivery and enables file checking if needed, thus saving you time, money, and worries.
Bridging the gap between two worlds
With PitStop Connect, you can better 'connect' with your customers.
It allows you to easily set-up a single gateway for file transmission between graphic designers and yourself. All types of files can be delivered, including the metadata that are provided along with the file, such as an order identification number, quantity, or format. It ensures that all files you receive comply with your specifications and are transferred directly into your workflow.

What's new in PitStop Connect 10?
Enhanced security
PitStop Connect 10 integrates the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) for the transmission of files. This industry-proven protocol means that file transmission is now more secure than ever before.
Automatic update of Connectors
As a printer or publisher, you regularly need to update your delivery settings and preflight criteria when making changes in your production workflow. PitStop Connect 10 automatically updates these settings and distributes them to all installed Connectors. This ensures that all stakeholders in the delivery chain are working with the same information and that all parties use the latest specifications.
Compatible with the latest standards
PitStop Connect 10 is compatible with the latest preflight and correction technology in PitStop Pro 10, such as Preflight Profiles and Action Lists, as well as with the latest PDF standards, such as PDF/A for archiving and PDF/X-4 for printing.
Better use of available information
When using PitStop Connect 10 together with Switch, the intelligent metadata fields see to it that only relevant and personalized information is shown in the Connector. This metadata is also available through integration with existing databases (such as MIS and ERP systems). This helps you provide a more personalized service to your customers.
