PR Newswire (US)
Premedia Technologies' Latest Release of ShareStream(R)
Soft-Proofing Technology Moves Upstream to Support Creative Design
Process CHICAGO, Aug. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- R.R. Donnelley
& Sons Company (NYSE:RRD) today announced ShareStream(R)
Elements, a major new addition to its proven ShareStream
soft-proofing and collaboration platform. ShareStream Elements
brings the power of routing, approval and collaborative workflow to
the creative process. As an integrated component of the
MediaCompass(TM) suite of online tools from RR Donnelley Premedia
Technologies, ShareStream Elements works in concert with
ShareStream PRO's color-critical online soft-proofing capabilities
to create a comprehensive design-to-print collaboration workflow
for customers. "Customers told us they loved the workflow tools
that they were using to collaborate on color with ShareStream PRO,"
said Ronnie Sarkar, Senior VP of Business Development and
Technology for RR Donnelley's Premedia Technologies. "They have
said that they wanted to extend the same tools upstream into their
creative workflow processes." Among the new capabilities of
ShareStream Elements is full access to the Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) Pro
annotation and collaboration toolset within MediaCompass workflows.
"Customers are familiar with the power and sophistication of the
Adobe Acrobat technology," continued Sarkar, "But many struggled
with creating a framework for effective routing and approval
workflows. E-mail is not a workflow tool." ShareStream Elements
provides a central, secure internet-accessible portal for the
management, routing and approval of graphic content. "This latest
release of ShareStream demonstrates our continued commitment to
developing tools and technologies that make our customers more
competitive and efficient," said Mary Lee Schneider, President of
RR Donnelley Premedia Technologies. "We have shown that accurate
color could be viewed online with our landmark SWOP(R)
certification in 2003. Now we're extending the technology even
further upstream into the creative, concept and design stages."
ShareStream Elements is available to RR Donnelley's Premedia
Technologies' customers beginning in August 2006. MediaCompass, RR
Donnelley's comprehensive suite of integrated online asset
management, workflow and collaboration tools, includes the
following exclusive tools: -- Image Merchant(R) for digital asset
management. -- ShareStream(R), for color and content soft-proofing,
document routing and approval -- DemandSelect(SM) for dynamic
