Kodak knows how an imposition interface should be…Â*why they just launch a new product
I was very happy at Drupa to see the new interface of preps, or so I thought…Â*It turns out there is another module called "Preps ganging" that has the interface some of us have been asking for since Scenic had the product. Don't mind a complementary product, but why does basic PREPS templates still have to be so cumbersome and ancient in the interface.
The upgrade from PREPS 4.2 to 5.2 costs more than an Adobe Creative Suite upgrade, and adds very little by way of news. Had it been reworked to contain some of the template editing of Ganging it would have been worth the money. Will PREPS be updated? Or will we allways be subsadising developers to produce other products by upgrading. I'm much disappointed and feel misslead. I give Kodak one more chance to clean up, but I think it is a ritten way to treat faithfull customers.
