March 23, 2007. Portland, OR -- Fusion Systems International (http://www.FusionSystems.com) today announced that it has released version 7.2 of the Fusion RIP for Linux. Free evaluation copies are available from the Downloads page of the company's Website at http://www.FusionSystems.com
This latest version of the RIP supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES v4.0 and builds on a range of features originally introduced with the 7.0 RIP, such as an advanced in-RIP font emulation capability for time-critical applications, full support for PDF/X-1a:2003 and PDF/X-3:2003 and the JDF 1.2 specification.
Officially supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4.0, the latest version of the Fusion RIP for Linux is also known to work on other flavors and versions of Linux (for instance, recent versions of Ubuntu, Debian, Centos).
Features common to both the Linux and OS X RIP (version 7.2 of which latter was released last month) include native compatibility with PDF 1.6 for greater direct processing of PDF files. The Fusion RIPs maintain the ability to process PDF files natively without the need to first convert to PostScript®, which ensures fast and accurate rendering.
Fusion RIPs are also JDF Certified supporting JDF enablers which allow for reference file format support of 1-bit TIFF-based workflows. With a growing trend among Computer-to-Plate manufacturers to accept 1-bit TIFF separation files from any source, such as the Fusion RIP, this latest enhancement provides extended communications support for open solutions configurations.
