APPE and CPSI

[RBA2000]

CPSI - Changing Perceptions of Security and Interventions!!!!

I can’t imagine that a change of perception of security is needed when I am working with files, so it must mean something else.

And what does APPE means?
Maybe old school or stupid question.

APPE is Adobe PDF Print Engine, Adobe's most recent RIP-technology. Not that fast and supposed to handle live transparencies in PDFs well.

CPSI is Configurable PostScript Interpreter, an older RIP-technology that is based on postscript. Cannot handle live transparency and must flatten it first. For the most part this one is old, stable, fast and one knows its shortcomings.
