For more information about variable data printing workflows, see Workflow Examples. Compatible variable data printing languages The Print Server is compatible with the following variable data printing languages: • FreeForm and FreeForm 2 FreeForm and FreeForm 2 are used with variable data solutions. FreeForm technology reusable data is RIPped only once, enabling the copier to run faster. FreeForm supports the creation of master elements and variable data from any desktop application or computer platform. Within the application, the master page is assigned a number from 1 to 100. FreeForm options are found in the driver and job management tools. For more information about FreeForm, see "Printing variable data documents" on page 12. FreeForm 2 expands FreeForm technology by allowing you to determine page conditions and rules for printing a job containing multiple master pages. It also allows you to define the boundaries of each record in the data stream. This means defining a start and end for each record. Unlike FreeForm, FreeForm 2 requires a variable data printing application (for example, PrintShop Mail) that specifically supports FreeForm 2. For more information about FreeForm 2, see "Printing variable data documents" on page 12.
