Imp XML Bundle

About Imp XML Creator

The Imp XML Creator app acts as a bridge between Enfocus Switch and Imp Flow to automate ganging, imposition for offset, digital and large format printing without any touch points.

Imp XML Creator allows users to generate XML files with job definition compatible with Imp software by dropping PDF files in the input folder.

The app properties will carry all the necessary data to create a product with a suitable component such as bound and/or unbound in Imp software.

About Imp XML Merger

The Imp XML Merger app acts as a bridge between Enfocus Switch and Imp Flow to automate ganging, imposition for offset, digital and large format printing without any touch points. Imp XML Merger combines multiple Imp XML documents and creates a single XML. This app is useful for ganged jobs or a book job with a cover and inner pages.

About Imp

InSoft sets new direction in layout planning, ganging, imposition and estimation with advanced algorithms and sophisticated mathematical techniques . It enables you to move to a single platform for an array of different printing techniques and applications.

Imp Flow provides unparalleled automation in hands free layout planning and imposition. The software offers the ability to pool the entire schedule of work and automatically generates ganged layouts.  We have customers ganging 1000s of jobs a day at once.

We chose Enfocus Switch and integrated Imp imposition & ganging software for our workflow, both of which are driven by the output XML file supplied by our MIS system. We have an extremely complex work mix. Our website allows customers to choose any (custom) size across a wide range of products and substrates. This infinite number of options must be correctly imposed on one of four machines: two digital and two litho, all of which have different sheet sizes. Imp is the only software with the capacity to handle work this dynamic and complex.
