I've seen many glowing flow charts of how JDF will make the print shop sing in harmony but I haven't seen much real world JDF implementation. I feels like the standard popped and dropped in the mid 2k. Adobe pulled JDF support in Acrobat XI. I'm not aware of any finishing vendors that officially support it. I love the idea of JDF, but I feel like it's not been supported seriously by most vendors even though they claim JDF support. Can anyone give some real world work flow where JDF has brought about meaningful production automation.
