  • Page 74: Printing Variable Data Documents With Freeform

    5-2 Printing Variable Data Documents Printing variable data documents with FreeForm In FreeForm variable data printing, you can use print options to define master documents and assign them to variable data jobs sent to the Fiery X3e. How FreeForm works The basic premise of FreeForm variable data printing is that the master-element data for the job can be sent to the Fiery X3e and rasterized separately from the variable-element data.

  • Page 75: Creating The Master Document

    5-3 Printing variable data documents with FreeForm Creating the master document Before you can use FreeForm, you must create a master document and a variable document. This includes creating the layout for the combined document, as well as the elements themselves. In a page layout or graphics program, you arrange the master elements (text and graphics that do not change) on one or more pages, leaving space for the variable elements.

  • Page 76: Creating The Variable Document

    5-4 Printing Variable Data Documents Creating the variable document You can create the variable document with a word processing application that provides a mail merge function, a database application, or a page layout application that supports scripting. In all cases, information is taken from a list or database and merged into an existing document that is set up to accept the information.

  • Page 77: Combining The Freeform Master With The Variable Document

    5-5 Printing variable data documents with FreeForm Combining the FreeForm master with the variable document When you print a variable document to the Fiery X3e, you specify the FreeForm master created from your master document with the Use Master print option. The Fiery X3e combines the raster data of the variable document with the already RIPped FreeForm master, creating a new raster data file.
  • Page 78 5-6 Printing Variable Data Documents Pages 1 and 2 of the variable document are combined with pages 1 and 2, respectively, of the master document. The cycle of master pages then starts over, and pages 3 and 4 of the variable document are combined respectively with pages 1 and 2, again, of the master document.

  • Page 79: Using Freeform

    5-7 Printing variable data documents with FreeForm Using FreeForm This section provides some suggestions to help you print variable data jobs correctly. • Consult your administrator or operator on how FreeForm master numbers are assigned at your site. If FreeForm printing is used by a large number of users at your site, FreeForm master numbers, or ranges of numbers, can be assigned to specific users or groups.
  • Page 80 5-8 Printing Variable Data Documents The following settings for the variable document might override the corresponding settings in the master document: Duplex Media Type Paper Source Save Fast Reprint Sorter Mode Stapler Mode The Top Binding print option of the Duplex setting has no effect when printing using FreeForm.
  • Page 81 5-9 Printing variable data documents with FreeForm 2. Print the master document to the Fiery X3e with the Create Master print option set to one of the FreeForm Master numbers (1 through 15). Or, set the Create Master option to None and instruct the operator to use overrides to create a FreeForm master from this job.
  • Page 82 5-10 Printing Variable Data Documents FreeForm master numbers can be overridden from Command WorkStation/ Command WorkStation LE or Fiery Spooler. Check with the operator to make sure that the FreeForm master number you specify is the correct one for the FreeForm master you want to use.
