Enfocus Unveils Major Updates in PitStop Pro 6.5

Belgian software developer Enfocus has released the latest version of its popular PitStop Pro, a powerful tool for PDF production and quality control. The new version, PitStop Pro 6.5, includes several key features that aim to simplify the workflow and improve output performance.

One of the most significant additions is the ability to align and distribute objects automatically, which was previously a manual task. This feature not only saves time but also reduces the risk of human error. Additionally, PitStop Pro 6.5 now allows users to fix multiple font subsets, which can further enhance output quality.

Another important update is the creation of printer or reader spreads, a feature that is particularly useful for operators who need to manually edit paths. This action is designed to streamline the process and reduce manual intervention.

Booklet imposition is another new feature in Pitstop Pro 6.5. Unlike previous versions, which would mirror content, Enfocus has taken a different approach by extending the actual line-art. This innovative method makes quick pre-press work of PDF files with dielines or digital cutlines possible.

The company has also made significant improvements to bleed handling. With PitStop Pro 2021, users can now check, clip and create bleed along a vector contour, making it easier to manage complex files.

Andrew Bailes-Collins, senior product manager at Enfocus, highlighted the importance of these updates, saying that they represent a 'huge leap forward' in the way bleed is added to line-art. He also emphasized that the new features have been developed directly from customer feedback, demonstrating Enfocus' commitment to listening to its users and delivering solutions that meet their needs.

The updated PitStop Pro 6.5, along with PitStop Server 2021 and PitStop Library SDK 2021, is now available for download from Enfocus. These new versions aim to further establish the company's position as a leading provider of PDF production and quality control software.
