摘要:
A method and system for automatically generating a package design. Packaging information may be obtained. A processing module and a semantic knowledge base may automatically generate one or more graphical layout rules and one or more structural design rules based on the packaging information. A three dimensional representation of a package design may be automatically generated based on the one or more graphical layout rules and the one or more structural design rules. The three dimensional representation of the package design may be displayed.

A system for creating variable dimension digital documents. The system includes a computer processor and a computer readable medium operably connected to the computer processor and having at least one software module installed on the computer readable medium and containing instructions for operating the computer processor to perform a process. The process includes the steps of receiving a user defined goal for creating a variable dimension digital document, wherein the user defined goal includes at least one recipient, determining at least one document template based upon the user defined goal, determining a plurality of digital assets to include in the variable dimension digital document based upon the document template and the user defined goal, creating a plurality of data files representing the potential variable dimension digital documents, and producing a results set including the potential variable dimension digital documents.
摘要:
A method and system for printing content on a three dimensional structure, select a first graphical design style sheet for a first facet of the structure. A graphical design layout renderer to apply semantic structural design data to the style sheet until a graphic design template is prepared. Graphical content is linked to the structure and printed on the substrate using the design data. The system determines the location by facet of the content, and ensures that larger content items are distributed among multiple facets of the structure.

A system for forming a foldable printed substrate includes a creasing system that applies a plurality of creases to the substrate along a first axis. It also applies a plurality of creases to the substrate along a second axis that is angled with respect to the first axis. Each creases is applied in a manner that does not ablate the substrate. The system also may include a cutting system to yield a foldable substrate such as a carton, sleeve, or box. It also may include a printing system to generate a printed, foldable substrate.

Methods and systems for improving resource usage in a print shop are disclosed A system may include a workflow management system and a plurality of resource in the print shop. The workflow management system may be configured to receive a plurality of print jobs for processing at the print shop and determine a cost per item for processing the plurality of print jobs based on economic data associated with the print jobs. The workflow management system may determine whether the cost per item will be reduced by adding, removing or modifying a print job. An added print job may be of a different type than the plurality of print jobs. The plurality of resources may be capable of processing the plurality of print jobs.

A method of scheduling a print job may include determining a first set of deployments that includes one or more deployments. Each deployment in the first set may include an indication of a logical device in a cloud environment and an indication of a production center. The method may include for one or more deployments in the first set of deployments, determining a total compliance value associated with the deployment, identifying a subset of deployments based on, at least in part, the associated total compliance values, generating a new set of deployments based on, at least in part, the identified subset of deployments, and in response to the first set of deployments being an improvement over the new set of deployments, incrementing a count variable, and repeating the determining a total compliance value, identifying, and generating operations until the count variable equals an exit condition value.
摘要:
A method and system for semantically classifying variable data campaign information. The method and system include loading, by a processing device, a variable data campaign from a computer readable storage medium operably connected to the processing device; extracting, by the processing device, variable data from the campaign; semantically classifying, by the processing device, the variable data to produce semantically classified variable data; building, by the processing device, a variable data campaign model based upon the semantically classified variable data; and storing, by the processing device, the variable data campaign model in the computer readable storage medium.
摘要:
A print shop management method or system is used for a print shop. The method or system uses a knowledge base containing device data elements and service data elements. Each device data element represents a device in the print shop, and each service data element represents a service that may be implemented by one or more of the devices. A workflow management system implements an automated reasoner that, when a new device is added or one or more parameters of a device in the print shop are modified, uses semantic reasoning to select a service that may be implemented by the modified device, updates the knowledge base to include a new device element for the new or modified device; and automatically associates the new device element and the selected service.

A method of scheduling a print job in a print production system may include identifying one or more print jobs having a start time within a rental period, identifying one or more logical devices that are operating during the rental period and determining a processing schedule associated with the rental period. The method may include determining whether the processing schedule comprises an idle period, in response to the processing schedule comprising an idle period, determining whether a future print job can be processed during the idle period, in response to determining that the future print job can be processed during the idle period, assigning the future print job to at least a portion of the idle period on the processing schedule, and instructing the identified logical devices to process the one or more identified print jobs according to the processing schedule.
