10:00 amSession IV - Content Management & Delivery
How can we get data out of the many data sources in the plant and into the various outputs, file formats, and reports that managers need? Printers deal with data in an unstructured format (such as hot folders) and within applications. How can we create structure to build an operationally smart factory? What is the role of the database and what aspects do printers, print buyers, and prepress companies need to attend to? Everything discussed in this conference is predicated on you taking this first step -in an informed and rational manner. Session Chair: Bill Ray, TAGA Vice President/Papers and President of Group InfoTech.
