  V5  Thumbnail previewDisplay of thumbnail preview and job properties when mouse pointer will be moved over the job. Display of thumbnails when jobs will be moved into the next queue.
 
 Freely definable scalingProportional or non-proportional scaling of an job in height, width and percent.
 
 Autom. adjustment to the medium sizeJobs can be automatically scaled to the media size.
 
 VISUAL SCALINGScaling of an job with respect to the image through positioning of a distance tool.
 
 Cut and registration marksPrinting of cut and registration marks.
 
 Mirror and rotate in 90° stepsMirror jobs and rotate in 90° steps for output.
 
 Auto RotateAutomatically rotate jobs with space optimization.

400.00 €
 Auto arrangeAutomatic space-optimized arrangement of the selected jobs based on the selected media width.
 
 Job propertiesChanges to the job properties, such as the printing and color settings of individual jobs.
 
 LevelsOption for placement and output of jobs above or below one another, for instance to integrate logos.
 
 Free placementFree placement of the jobs with the 'drag-and-drop function' or through input of the XY coordinates.
 
 Freely definable scalingFree scaling of a job. The proportions of a job can optionally be retained or released for changes (job properties).
 
 Magnetic object edges / guide linesSpecification and visualization of horizontal and vertical spaces between objects and jobs. For precise job arrangement using magnetic object edges that are designated by temporarily visible lines. Activation of magnetic guide lines for precise job arrangement with an input dialog for the position coordinates.
 
 Define job / object spacingInput of the distances between two objects for automatic job arrangement.
 
 Copy and layout printFreely definable copy printing (number of outputs) of a container with input dialog for the spacing between the individual containers.
 
 Multipage containerAssignment of multipage PDF and PostScript files to a container (collective jobs) with selection option for job pages. Possible in connection with options 'Multipage PDF & PostScript files' and 'Container'.

 Pipette tool / on-screen densitometerDisplay of the CMYK percentile values in the full screen preview via mouse-over. In split preview, the values before and after a correction are displayed.
 
 Integrated FOGRA media wedge 2.2The FOGRA media wedge 2.2 can be output with every proof.
 
 Control wedge evaluation with report functionIn addition to ISO reference profiles, separate ICC profiles can be defined as control reference for evaluation of the media wedge. All proof-relevant information, as well as printing time and measuring time are logged. This evaluation can also be output as a label for 'Dymo Label Writer'.
