PrintShop Mail Suite Promotional variable data publishing

Application PrintShop Mail Suite

PrintShop Mail Suite is powerful VDP solution for commercial printers and companies in other business areas, wanting to produce professional, personalised one-to-one documents. It is a known fact that using personalisation for applications like direct mail, invitations, tickets, postcards, calendars, business cards, versioned brochures, and customised communications helps businesses increase response rates and capture new customers.

PrintShop Mail Suite makes producing any versioned or personalised marketing piece a breeze. This flexible VDP application is available as a modular solution comprising an initial desktop edition for the straightforward creation of materials with variable content, plus an optional multi-user web version to produce and manage ongoing and repetitive communications.

n PrintShop Mail Design is ideal for users in commercial print environments, as it lets print operators overlay data on customer’s designs, and supports device-specific settings such as dynamic tray pulling, (subset) finishing, scripting (i.e. for crash numbering), and dynamic imposi-tion. This makes it the perfect VDP tool for com-mercial printers, CRDs and in-house print rooms, print and copy shops, or marketing services companies.

n PrintShop Mail is simple and straightforward to use for anyone: For example, users in vertical industries like retail, car dealers, real estate and health care, benefit from being able to easily produce variable pieces with simple drag and drop action, without requiring any graphic design expertise.

n PrintShop Mail Design is available in two versions: PrintShop Mail Starter enables the printing of 100,000 records, while PrintShop Mail Production includes unlimited printing.

n As an optional extension to the PrintShop Mail Design module, PrintShop Mail Web offers location-independent multi-user printing with the added benefit of a web interface for automat-ing and managing document templates. Its web capability allows real-time, 24/7 online modifica-tion, ordering and production of repetitive, promo-tional and personalised documents created with PrintShop Mail Design as well as static PDF files.

n Its enhanced capabilities make PrintShop Mail Web the perfect module for commercial printers want-ing to give their customers access to the creation of customised print products via a web interface. Likewise, businesses with offices or outlets in vari-ous locations benefit from the enhanced flexibility.
