The Ghent Workgroup is calling for the knowledge and expertise of prepress operators, prepress production managers, designers, IT managers and press operators on PDF workflow to participate in a survey. Following up a similar survey conducted in 2008,
it aims to find out what has changed since and gain insight on today’s PDF use. Further, it wants to discover how well GWG specifications and tools (and other PDF standards) are being adopted and what the worldwide differences are.
The survey aims to make the participants and the Ghent Workgroup aware of the state of PDF in document production, and current issues the creators and service providers are facing. David Zwang, GWG chairman comments, “The more information we gather, the better equipped we will be to improve our solutions and industry best practices. The collective responses will develop a better understanding of how processes have changed, which specifications are being adopted, and how workflows vary. This will help GWG improve the solutions it offers.”
GWG is dedicated to advancing the print, publishing and packaging industries. Its goal is to create practical workflow tools that make daily production tasks easier, faster and more reliable. The results will help GWG continue to provide the industries with free specifications and best practices. Readers can go to http://www.gwg.org/gwg-2017-pdf-survey/ to begin the survey. As a note of appreciation, all participants will be entered into a lucky draw and stand to win amazing prizes.
