The upgraded Flexi 12 programme features a host of new design and production capabilities, and has been launched to coincide with the release of Microsoft Windows 10, while remaining fully compatible with Microsoft Windows 7 and 8.

Graphtec says Flexi 12 is capable of supporting printers and cutters via a raft of additional design and production tools, which have been designed to enhance and streamline workflow capabilities on a host of key issues such as artwork management and approval, printing and cutting accuracy, colour management, and end-product finishing.

New features include the Contour Cut True Nesting Tool, which the developer says can help enable savings of up to 50 percent on material wastage, while the improved Colour Management Tool will allow for easier and more efficient printing with metallic and white inks.

A new Artwork Approval Tool will assist the user with artwork changes, while the Cut Order and Animated Cut Viewer Tools will help reduce time-consuming cutting requirements, whilst at the same time enabling users to see how a particular design will be cut before commencement of the cutting process.

Other important production enhancements include Banner and Canvas Finishing, an auto serialisation facility that saves production time while boosting accuracy, as well as QR and Data Matrix Code Generation to enable a wider use of interactive elements on signage.

The free software programme is available to all existing Flexi subscribers.
