Graphic technology. Use of PDF to associate processing steps and content data – Processing steps for packaging and labels

| BSI | 2018 | 24 |
This document describes a method for storing data in a PDF file that correspond to the processing steps of printed products. This method has three parts:
-
metadata identifying processing steps;
-
limitations on the interaction between PDF graphics objects that are part of a processing step and other PDF graphics objects;
-
limitations on PDF graphics objects in processing steps.
This method is intended to be generic, i.e. not specific to packaging and labels.
In addition, this document defines the following packaging- and label-specific groups of processing-steps data:
-
data corresponding to finishing steps, such as cutting, folding or glueing;
-
Braille;
-
information panels;
-
indications of physical dimensions;
-
indications of intended positions of graphical elements;
-
printed white, for example on transparent or metallic surfaces;
-
printed varnish.
