The merits of PDF/VT were recognized by the Printing Industries of American (PIA), which honored the format with a 2011 InterTech Technology Award. In summary, PDF/VT offers the following features:
- Support for the latest PDF imaging model, which can accurately render transparencies
- Existing tools can pre-flight and modify PDF/X4 and PDF/X5 files and can therefore be used for PDF/VT files
- The free Acrobat Reader can be used to preview and soft-proof PDF/VT files
- The preview/soft-proof/print file is one and the same so there are no discrepancies between what the customer sees and what gets printed
- Support for blind job exchange
- Distiller in combination with pdfmark can be used to convert optimized PostScript to PDF/VT (providing a simple migration path)
The established PPML (Personalized Print Markup Language) standard has been significantly enhanced with the recent release of PPML 3.0. In addition to supporting transparency, PPML 3.0 also supports transparency between layers. PPML supports native formats including EPS, jpg, tiff, PDF. PPML also offers high performance in streaming applications. The PPML standard is generally available to the marketplace. For more information, visit www.podi.org.
