Features: Automation

Building on the fastest template creation tool in the industry, Print automation is a hallmark of the PageDNA application. Geared to facilitate online business transactions between you and your customers, the PageDNA storefront is open 24/7 and allows customers to order printed products at their convenience.

Pricing Matrix Quotes is a simple yet powerful tool that allows a print provider to create an online “matrix” of pricing for various types of products based on paper weights and print options. You do the calculations offline and enter them into Quotes.
Print Estimating The Quotes Plus product goes a step further and handles true print estimating that you would find in a more expensive Print MIS estimating system.
Upload Tool PageDNA storefronts accommodate web-based upload of large artwork files, an easier and more convenient way to move art than FTP or a print driver

Fast to Build Upload your artwork and our template creation tool automatically parses the file and determines the page size, the fonts, photos, and illustrations, and then sets variables where you want them.
Corporate Control The ultimate "set it and forget it" application for business identity rules, approval, and budgets. Your customers will be happy that their products conform to corporate identity standards and workflows, and you can stop fussing over details better handled by computers.
Flexible Logic The application can be used on a wide range of versioned, personalized, and one-to-one printed products. Our software allows you to write logic directly into an online template giving each product unique layout and workflow characteristics.

Storefront To Plate No importing or exporting to other systems needed. Once an order is placed the job is ready to gang.
Smart Layout Eliminate tedious clicking to set up jobs. Filter, select and then group orders in a streamlined workflow. The system automatically calculates the optimum item placement in order to minimize run length and simplify packaging.
Automated Plate Creation Take it to the next level by setting up jobs to run on certain days, for certain accounts, for certain products, and at certain times. Plates files sent via FTP directly to your production facility.
Imposed Job/Ship Labels Outputs a printed job ticket with the same layout as the plate for use within the production process or as a shipping label.
Flexible Grouping Group orders by size, rush, quantity, product type, storefront, finishing options, etc.

Inventory / Pick n pack Inventory counts, warehouse location, packing information, weight, re-stocking levels, back-order support are some of the common data requests we see regarding these item types.
e-Delivery Complement your print offerings with e-Delivery. Common examples of e-delivery are rush, localized, and in-house printing that preclude the storefront owner from being a viable printing option, or advertisements created online and distributed to other media channels.
Mailing Lists With integrated list purchasing through USADATA, your customer can purchase a list and complete a direct mail project in one seamless transaction. Customers can also upload mailing lists from their computer.
Integrations Fully implemented, the PageDNA variable print application leaves no gaps in the workflow of variable print items. With integrations available (see integrations) to push data between PageDNA storefronts and other systems – including, corporate procurement, print MIS, and accounting – we cover the contingencies that arise in a complex print marketplace.
