FreeFlow Variable Information (VI) Suite
The FreeFlow VI Software Suite provides a variable data software suite with focus on VIPP (Variable data
Intelligent Postscript Printware) - a Xerox technology building on the power of postscript with the goal of a
powerful Variable Data solution that can make document creation as simple as just sending the data. Print
shop operators and supervisors can also easily print variable data applications in electronic format, as pdf
files, with the VI PDF Originator.
Print Speed/System Performance
In general, the Xerox Nuvera™ 100/120 is capable of efficiently handling variable data jobs. The exact size
of the run length will vary based on the amount of variable coverage and element demographics (size and
percentage of variable text vs. images/graphics).
Overall system performance (click-to-clunk) is dependent upon many factors, including the variable data
application and workflow, network environment, image quality settings, and RIP and print rates.
Variable Information Software Limitations
Note: The following limitations are specific to variable information, which may not be inclusive of the entire
system independent of whether a job includes variable data.
FreeFlow VI Interpreter
Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF)
•
PDF cannot be used as a direct input resource for VI Interpreter. Direct printing of PDF files within a VIPP
workflow is not supported. PDF files can be converted to PostScript (using an Adobe compliant driver) and
the VIPP Resource Converter or other third party PDF to PostScript converter. PostScript is an input
resource supported by the VI Interpreter.
•
The VI PDF Originator component of the VIPP workflow can output intelligent, interactive PDF files directly
from a VIPP data file. For more information on the capabilities of the VI PDF Originator contact your Xerox
representative
.
Support for the FreeFlow VI Suite may also be obtained by contacting the Variable Information and
Solutions Services Group (VISSG). Customers may call (888) 550-6336.
FreeFlow Print Manager / IPP
The XDS software has been discontinued. A replacement is the FreeFlow Print Manager,
