Who is Web-To-Print SaaS software for?

What is unique about Print Firm Software's Web-to-Print technology?

Many firms offer very design-centric solutions, which are great, but setting up templates and providing the capability of your user to enter valid and quality data is a concern and issue to many providers. Our solution is unique in that, we provide a mechanism whereby you simply upload and our system "parses" and pulls apart the variable layers and data for you. Your templates are literally uploaded and usable in minutes. No hoops to jump through, no "X Y" coordinates to enable, no secondary or complimentary xml files or syntax to set. You upload, classify and enable. Templates are available in minutes.

No hassles, no browser limitations. Our custom written and hosted DLL's combined with our powerful engine and AJAX technology, you, as the provider simply need to upload your PSD file. We handle the rest.

Our engine and technology parse your PSD file, separating layers, backgrounds and images, providing with you a web-based canvas for your customers editing.

Upon completion you can preview and save the completed design as a high-resolution .jpg or .pdf.

Why is using Abobe technolgoy significant?

In particular, our e-commerce engine is built upon state-of-the-art Microsoft technology and our Web-To-Print technology is built upon the ability to utilize Adobe Photoshop files in their native format.

The My Web-To-Print Site Online Design and Template Personalization modules are unique in that they enable templates dynamically.

Literally, our users, upload their .psd files and our system parses them, separating the layers and then enabling the indiviudal layers with the online tools.

This allows your customers:

  • Enter variable information directly into a web form and then preview their changes within our Template Personalization tool.
  • Adjust, update, add new layers, text and images directly onto a canvas within our Online Designer.

All our web-to-print modules then pass the adjusted artwork directly into an advanced and comprehensive online ordering workflow, allowing you, the provider to receive a complete job ticket, with original and newly created artwork, in high-resolution, thus ready for print.
