VI Document Formats 377 VI Document Formats VI jobs are created using VI authoring programs that support Variable Print Specification and VIPP formats. Most VI authoring programs can convert VI files to conventional PS files, which can also be processed by the Spire CXP8000 color server, although less efficiently than Variable Print Specification and VIPP files. Each authoring program creates VI code that instructs the RIP where to place the VI elements and each authoring program does so in a slightly different manner. The format you choose can be a stand-alone format that covers all aspects of document design, data management and text capture or it can be an extension of an existing program that enables the creation of VI documents and VI jobs. The Spire CXP8000 color server can process VI jobs that are in one of the following file formats: • Creo Variable Print Specification • Xerox Variable data Intelligent Postscript Printware (VIPP) • Personal Print Markup Language (PPML) • PostScript. Note: Variable Print Specification, VIPP, and PPML elements are displayed in the Resource Center under the Cached VI Elements area.
