    CIP4 JDF Integration Matrix

    You need to look a lot deeper than a little check box on a matrix. Getting these check boxes is very easy, but getting real value and robust integration is a different matter. Caveat Emptor

    MIS -> Press -> MIS

    Hi Sirius As others have mentioned, it is certainly possible to send JDf to the press for auomated setup (assuming press is capable), and to get JMF messages back about status and costs. however, there are several practical concerns: You may need a very expensive upgrade. I had a clinet who...

    JDF for beginners

    Re: JDF for beginners Hi Dwane It's very common in computer programming to start lists at 0 instead of 1. For example, the first element in an array is typically array[0] in most languages. No other reason. Somewhere in the JDF there's be a link between the runlinst page number 0 and folio...

    JDF for beginners

    Re: JDF for beginners Hi Hal Thanks for the reply. I wouldn't lump you into any Tom, Dick and Harry! We're a bit further along with JDF than you seem to think, but you;re right, there's a long way to go. JDF is only on v1.3 and consider that 10 years after PDF came along, it was only...

    JDF for beginners

    Re: JDF for beginners Forget it. The JDF schema only verifies that the JDF is *valid XML* NOT valid JDF. here is a massive difference between the two. There are a ton of semantics in JDF that can only be verified with proper JDF Validator. Converting a schema to database is no use whatsoever...

    JDF for beginners

    Re: JDF for beginners I don't think I've read such a ridiculous post in my life 1) Yes JDF is XML, but that's like saying a John Grisham novel is English so anyone could write a Grisham novel in notepad. 2) You really should take the time to understand JDF before calling it fluff. You can...
